There was technically only one Vera City. However, with the way it was built, there were actually two more citadels and two more wing cities in this territory making a total of five partitions.

It was made like this because they don\'t want to waste the five strategically important locations across the mountain ranges that were closely linked together. It is such a waste to ignore the advantage of their location so Vincent and Luna modified their city plans accordingly.

The central city had two layers separated by the outer wall and the inner wall.

The outer wall was 20-meter tall while the inner wall was 30-meter tall.

The height of the walls wasn\'t that impressive if compared to the fortresses in the Tudor Kingdom. However, Vincent knows that this is already more than enough considering their location. He believes that even if they were attacked by Barbarians, they wouldn\'t be able to easily scale the walls since they have focused more on creating defensive armaments that Vincent was truly proud of.

Anyway, part of the walls was made from enhanced black steel and they have decent attributes that Vincent liked the most. Aside from its toughness, the enhanced black steel has an attribute that naturally deflects mana so they are also a great material for shields or armor.

Lastly, Vincent mixed in some Arcane Steel which has a decent ability to conduct Mana in some parts of the city walls.

Its primary purpose was not to withstand attacks but to be used to power a Formation Art that Vincent bought from his senior sister for a very high price.

Well, he really has no other reliable sources of high-level Formation Arts aside from his Senior Sister.

The things he could get from the Tower Lord\'s library weren\'t that advanced since they were mostly old formation arts that could only be used to expand someone\'s knowledge about this field.

Just like the old Magic Artifacts found in the dungeon, they weren\'t always useful and new magic tools can be a lot better.

Anyway, the number of Formation Arts that were placed was proven to even cause some trouble with the Celestial Beings after conducting many tests and spending many resources. Spending this much was worth the price as they were able to learn the limit of their Formation Art and formulate extra defenses.

Of course, this is only one part of the city development as what Vincent truly focused on was the living conditions inside.

***

A middle-aged man wearing civilian clothing started walking around the streets of Vera City. He has short black hair and his face seems average among the citizens living here.

But even though he looks very normal, he was previously one of the respected appraisers of the Tudor Kingdom\'s southern region.

His name is Luc Diederich and was now living a simple life within this city.

To be honest, he was already prepared to die when he was captured by the Barbarians before… However, he was given an opportunity to continue living thanks to Vincent\'s efforts of saving them from the ferocious barbarians…

Right now, he has a simple work and that is to inspect the goods that are coming to their cities… As an experienced appraiser, this is just an easy job. Furthermore, this job only happens two times a week or sometimes even just once a week.

This is the reason why he has plenty of time to look around the clean and peaceful City of Vera. At this moment, Luc was planning to visit the tavern that was owned by one of his friends.

Apparently, his friend is a vintner, and all the wines he made were top quality when he was still in the Tudor Kingdom. He was unfortunately captured by the rebel army because he was friends with many supporters of the King during that time.

He was then passed over to the Barbarians which is why he ended up here even though he\'s not really a decent Mana Practitioner.

Unfortunately for Luc, before he could even enjoy his day, a familiar voice called out to him.

"Sir Luc! Miss Calidia has been looking for us. It seems that we\'ll have to join the caravan going to the Nidite City tomorrow…"

The young man who just called him was Cedric. He is one of the junior appraisers of the Guardian Auction before and they already know each other since both of their names were quite famous in the field of appraisers. They were both working as appraisers in this city.

They were both born with Mystic Eyes making them very special among the people working in the same field.

"Nidite City? What happened?" Luc was a bit surprised since in normal cases, the caravan from the Nidite City will be coming to their Vera City instead. If they needed to transport something to the port city, they don\'t have to bring appraisers like them for that.

"Ugh… I\'m not sure as well. We\'ll know once we met her." Cedric answered as the two of them went to visit Calidia\'s office in the Municipal Building close to the Kayser Tower at the center of the city.

This building is easy to locate since the tallest structure in the city is the Kayser Tower. Once you got closer to this tower, you can easily locate the municipal building with a huge plaza in front.

The two of them admired the beautifully designed tower for a bit before entering the municipal building.

The municipal building isn\'t just a place of work for the officials of the city but is also considered home by most of them.

As soon as they entered the reception hall, they realized that there were about fifty of them that were called to gather.

They waited for about ten more minutes before Calidia showed up and announced the reason they were called there.

"I\'m sorry for calling all of you in such a manner. I know that you don\'t have enough preparations but we\'ll have to leave tomorrow morning for Nidite City... and we might be staying there for two or three months." Calidia said, surprising almost everyone.

They were expecting to stay in that city for at most two or three weeks instead of months. Many of them couldn\'t help but feel a bit curious about this situation.

Nevertheless, none of them are really angry about this since they were basically blessed to live in very good conditions here. They wouldn\'t complain about this kind of demand from their superiors.

Calidia smiled seeing that although the news abruptly came, none of them opposed it.

\'Sir Vincent was right… These people wanted to be useful as well…\' With this in mind, Calidia continued explaining the situation.

Apparently, Nidite City was attacked by some humanoid sea creatures and they will be going there to provide some aid.

Calidia wasn\'t sure of the situation as well but it seems that these creatures were trying to invade the port city!

Currently, their city\'s Mage Battalion has already gone there using three of their airships to help them resist the invasion.
