Omega Summoner

Chapter 273 - Shangri-La

[You have arrived at the City of Paradise, Shangri-La.]

[You have arrived in the past. Any major change that you do in the past will inevitably lead to a change in the present.]

Adrian immediately received this notification once he landed in his destination. He is in an alleyway that has little to no people because it is next to the golden city walls. The temporal rift is located on that very wall so Adrian had to minimize it so that no one accidentally enters it.

Now that Adrian has minimize the temporal rift so that only something like a mosquito could fit, Adrian decided to view the city. Shangri-La, the City of Paradise, it really does fit the title it was given. All the buildings in the city are made from gold as it would sheen whenever light touches its walls.

Tall spires that is reminiscent of ancient Asian structures are reaching the clouds. Peridot did send pictures in their group chat about the beauty of the eastern continent but Shangri-La is just out of this world. The buildings seem to have the influence of Hindu, Chinese and Japanese ancient structures.

If Adrian is to describe it then he would be in a city in the past where they experience their golden age. The sight easily beat any old city of the real world in terms of grandeur and magnificence. Adrian did not stick out like a sore thumb because the clothing he is wearing thanks to Glamour is that of the time period.

The city of Shangri-La would have been perfect but there was a heavy atmosphere that befell the city. Despite the jaw dropping magnificence of the city, there are only a few people running about and most of them are guards. It seems that what the two guardian birds said is true.

"It seems that it really is a time of war. People only go outside to buy necessities while there is heavy security in the city. How am I going to find the monk? Is he even still alive though?" Adrian pondered as he continued walking to a restaurant.

Adrian wanted to ask the general situation from a native so that he can plan. He does not want to get caught up in the war as he is only passing by. The guards noticed Adrian but they only stared at him as if analyzing him. Adrian just feigned ignorance and entered the restaurant.

The restaurant is not bustling with people but it was still half full. Adrian observed the people inside the restaurant and it seems that all of them are warriors. It seems that only those confident of their strength are roaming about.

"It seems that level 500 was a safety net because all the warriors here are level 250 and higher. The guards of the city are even level 300. If that monk is still alive then his level might be in the four hundreds." Adrian thought to himself as he cast his glance at all of the people of the restaurant.

"My Lord? I am sorry if I am being rude but pets are not allowed in the store." A female server of the restaurant stated.

Adrian looked at the server and could see that she is wearing a tea ceremony dress. It seems that Adrian entered a tea house. He does admit that the warriors look like refined ladies and gentleman unlike that of the central continent that look like brutes.

"It seems that the aesthetic look of a warrior is different for each continent. Those in the central continent like to look tough by showing bulging muscles or battle scars. Those of the eastern continent are akin to hidden dragons or crouching tigers." Adrian muttered.

"My Lord? Did you hear me?" the female server stated in a mild and gentle tone in order to not offend Adrian.

"Master heard you but those are not pets but his…" Kanlaon was about to finish but Adrian interjected.

"This two are my battle beasts. If you mistake them for pets then they might get angry at you because you offended them. They are only taking on that form so that it would not cause panic in the city." Adrian replied with a smile.

"I am deeply apologetic my lord. I did not know you are a sage. Forgive my rudeness." The female attendant hastily replied as she kowtowed.

"You do not need to worry. My battle beasts are not that short tempered to attack you out of a petty misunderstanding." Adrian replied so that the female server would stop kneeling.

"I am deeply sorry for the rudeness of my employee, my lord. She is very new to this type of work and has yet to develop an eye for extraordinary people." A beautiful lady with over the top hair stated.

The lady wore a red vibrant dress different from the female servers. Her dress has embroidery made of gold flowers. She carried herself with grace and dignity. She looks like one of those rich business owners in the dramas that Adrian's mother like to watch.

"It is not offensive in anyway so you do not deeply apologize." Adrian reiterated.

"Nevertheless, I am still sorry. I will surely train my employees better. As a token of apology, we shall give you a private room and the food serve to you will be free of charge. My name is Diao Chan. Please call on me my lord if you need something." Diao Chan stated as she called another attendant to lead Adrian to the private room.

"Mistress, is it alright to give a stranger one of our expensive services?" The female attendant that first greeted Adrian asked.

"My dear, your eyes have yet to get used to powerful people. Even if all our customers here attack him all at once, they would have no chance. Let this be a lesson to you and cure your inexperience. You still have much to learn my dear." Diao Chan stated in a calm reprimanding tone filled with love.

"He is that powerful. Will he not exact his revenge after he leaves the store?" The female attendant stated in a worried tone.

"You are thinking too much. The lord seems to be the benevolent type because if he is not then you would have dropped dead already. You are lucky that you encountered a benevolent lord this time around or else even offering free services would not guarantee your life. Be mindful, my dear." Diao Chan stated as she turned around to greet her recent guest.
