After completing the disinfection work, Sebastian opened the door to another world again and took Tatsumi's group back to their world. He again embarked on the journey to the Imperial Capital from that forest.

A few days later, the group finally arrived in the Imperial Capital. This is the capital of the Empire, the most prosperous city, the streets are full of traffic and very lively. But deep inside, there are countless beggars, tramps, and stinking corpses, the scene in the slums is even worse.

In the story, Tatsumi, who had just arrived in the Imperial Capital, would be shocked by the prosperity. But after seeing the cities of the GDI, he felt that the gap between the two was too far apart. But it was the first time, he had come to the Imperial Capital, so Tatsumi, who had always dreamed of the Imperial Capital, still wanted to go out for a stroll.

"Sir, where are we going next?" Tatsumi asked curiously.

"Let's find a place to rest first," Sebastian said. After a long time of exhaustion, he decided to find a place to rest for a while.

"Then may I ask, can we go shopping around, sir?" Tatsumi asked with some expectation.

"Go." He nodded, there was nothing wrong with the few of them now, "Come back before nightfall."

"Well, thank you, sir." With a joyful smile on his face, Tatsumi immediately took Sayo and Ieyasu to the street.

"Sayo, come and see this."

"You're running too fast, Tatsumi."

"Ieyasu, hurry up."

The trio who came from the countryside were young children, and the bustle of the imperial capital completely attracted them. Although it was not as good as any city in GDI, it was still a very lively place for a few of them. What children like most is the excitement. The streets are crowded with people, and the cries of roadside vendors can be heard endlessly.

"Boss, here are three sticks of skewer." The trio passed through the crowd, happily walked to a small stall, and were about to take out their pouch to buy something, but they stopped in mid-air as if frozen.

"What's wrong Tatsumi?" Ieyasu on the side asked suspiciously.

"My... pouch is missing..." Tatsumi stammered and kept digging out his empty pocket as if he still couldn't believe the fact that his money was gone.

They passed through the crowd just now, so the money was stolen at that time. There was a dense crowd of people on the road, and naturally, there were many thieves among them.

"Then what to do..." Sayo asked with some worry.

"I have no idea....." Tatsumi did not expect such a thing to happen and was at a loss for a while.

"Hey, do you have any money?" The seller selling the skewer has lost his patience.

"Excuse me..." Before Tatsumi finished speaking, a voice sounded at this time, "I'll pay for them.

Besides the trio, a girl in gorgeous clothes appeared in front of her, "Keep the change."

She directly took out a gold coin and handed it to the seller, who immediately showed a flattering smile on his face, "Thank you for your purchase-!"

It is more than enough to buy three sticks of skewer with one gold coin, and even fifty sticks are no problem.

Tatsumi looked at the girl with grateful eyes: "Thank you very much. If I find my money when the time comes, I will return the money to you!"

"No need, it's just a trivial matter." The girl said slowly on her face, "My name is Aria."

There was a meaningful smile on her face, and the blue eyes were not innocent at her age, but full of malice. She is the culprit of Sayo and Ieyasu's death in the story. Aria's family is an aristocrat living in the Imperial Capital. Her family specializes in deceiving outsiders who want to come to the Imperial Capital, and then abuses and kills them to satisfy their perverted desires. And such people are not uncommon in the capital.

In the story, the trio is separated because of the bandits, and Sayo and Ieyasu arrive at the capital first, but because they are unfamiliar with the place and their nature is too simple, they are taken away by Aria. They end up being brutally murdered.

Tatsumi, who came to the capital later, was also deceived by Aria's kindness. But it was because of the Night Raid and their assassination of her family that he knew her true face in time. This is a very bustling street in the capital, any outsider who comes here will most likely be attracted by the bustling scene of this street, so Aria often comes here to look for suitable hunting targets.

The people who were revealed to be from the countryside atmosphere in both their clothes and behaviors were particularly conspicuous in the crowd, so they were targeted by Aria. They are the most suitable targets because they are still young and come from the countryside. However, without knowing the details of the trio, Aria would not choose to act blindly.

When she takes advantage of Tatsumi's lack of money to get close to the other party. She can not only gain the trust of the other party but also obtain information from their mouth to find out who they are. Although she specifically picked the rural people as her target, she had to figure out the real identity of the other party.

"What are your names?" Aria asked with a harmless smile on her face, preparing to extract information about the identities of the trio to see if they were the most suitable targets.

"My name is Tatsumi, and they are my friends, Sayo and Ieyasu, please to meet you."

The trio came from a mountain village far away from the capital, so they had no idea how the hearts of the people in the capital were degraded. They thought that Aria was a good person who rescued them from their predicament.

"Are you from the countryside?" Aria asked.

"Yes-!"

"I like the countryside too. Do you come to the capital to start a career?"

"That's right-!"

A more obvious smile broke out on her face. Sure enough, the trio came from the countryside, so I didn't choose the wrong target.

"So is anyone else going with you?"

"Well, there are a few more people." Tatsumi patted his chest proudly, "We are now the entourage of the GDI diplomats."
