Mapping out the Journey

Well let's see here for now let's check out what i came to check out. I immediately confirm on the "World Map " function.

[Loading updated World Map...]

After a while on the cover of the paper appeared the image of a very detailed map. It was the map of Potestera!

For how small the paper was the map was actually quite detailed.

It showed terrain,borders, and even the size of the oceans. I had seen maps of Potestera before in school but none were as good as the one I had in my hands right now.

When I started scanning it with greater detail I could see the names of the 6 major Superpower Countries the map bordered out.

The five were The Dominion of Enomiles, State of Scienimo, Mightos Empire, The Republic of Volunterra, The United Kingdom of Manafort, and The Withering Empire. All six of these countries abided by their own "Ideal of Power", through which they seeked their path towards the summit.

Immediately I focused on Volunterra, remembering that the merchant told me this paper also contained a detailed map of Volunterra, I touched the area of the map in which it lay. Immediately some options appeared.

[Zoom in on map of Potestera]

[Show detailed map of Volunterra]

I immediately click the second one, and soon after the image of the map of Potestera was replaced by the image of the Map of Volunterra.

This paper was on another level, this is way better than a normal map, the flexibility and quality is worlds apart. Just one paper but I have access to two super detailed maps, is this the power of Magic or Technology?

Then a new message appeared on the front of the paper.

[Accessing Dual Energy System Networks....configuring location and positioning... action successful, location of owner will be constantly shown on the map through access with nearby compatible systems.]

It can show me where I am on the map!

This thing is gonna make me cry of happiness. These means my chances of getting lost have been reduced to almost zero!

That's incredible maybe my fortune has made a turn for the better, never in dreams did ever think I could own such a useful and amazing item such as this. Even if i don't have that much power right now at least i'm we'll prepared for my journey. Now let me see just how detailed this map is.

As I started looking through the map i discovered the surface of the paper allowed me to interact with the details and features of the map.

I could zoom in and out. I could highlight certain zones, and look at all the Towns, Villages, and City names. I could also identify terrain such as mountains, forests, grasslands etc.

What really got me excited was discovering the territory information feature. It seemed to not be static, constantly updating showing different symbols. It marked territories with different symbols or colors, depicting vital information. It showed whether the area was safe to travel green,risky yellow, or high in danger red.

It used a beast like symbol to show areas with high level beast density's, a weird wind and lightning symbol to show natural disaster affected zones, and a sword and shield for Zones with high levels of conflict and combat.

Those were only a few of the details I managed to figure out. But it didn't matter just this alone was huge for me. This means I can avoid potential danger zones or risky areas when I'm traveling, lowering the risk of encountering danger. Not only that it was constantly updating meaning I was up to date with the information allowing me to make my decisions on a case by case basis.

Man that merchant wasn't lying this map definitely has to be up there among the best. How much better could a Seeier map be in comparison to this, I can't even imagine this already too much for me.

After I finished doing that, I focused on the names of the towns and villages until I finally found, where Beans Village was located. It was towards the west coast of Volunterra a couple miles inland south of the huge Battle Scar Bay.

It was quite a distance away from the Capital Will City, which was located near the center of the country. There was only one main road that lead directly to the Capital from our Village, but some travel could be done through some side trails to shorten the distance.

Although Volunterra was big and prosperous its Government wasn't very efficient there was not much progress on the country's infrastructure except for important main roads and military transport roads.

The people didn't mind though, we sorta liked it this way. It left room for exploration and adventuring of the land, and the Government seemed to agree.

Many thought the Government intentionally left much of Volunterra wild, for the sole purpose of nurturing future Rankers.

Regardless of the reasons it still made traveling through the country a pain in the but. Many merchants and business companies constantly complained to the Government about this. It was one of the major issues Volunterras Government constantly had to address, along with safety and national security.

I traced out the path I need to take in order to get to Will City. As soon as I did that, another message popped out.

[ Do you wish to set Will City as your destination?]

[yes/no]

I confirmed it as my destination, immediately another message popped out.

[Calculating fastest and safest route to take to Will City... Route has been confirmed, it will now be visible through the map and will constantly update]

This thing is pure gold. I'm not even sure gold could represent its value. It's more like a Platinum priced item. I'm starting to think that people might want to take this away from me if they find out what it can do.

Ok enough I'll worry about it later, and check out the rest of the options when the opportunity comes, now i have to finish getting ready for the journey.
