The Thousand Year Dynasty
08. Guam City
"Maybe I will also go again tomorrow morning" Yvvone said as he was at Aksa and Nata's camp a day later.
"Don't forget to bring your Shuuran friend" Aksa said.
"Yes. I'll bring it. But before that, how about you lend me that drawing tool first, Nat" Yvvone said, smiling sweetly at Nata.
"Didn't the deal, you brought your friend, and I gave you this Smarthphone" Nata replied.
"Yes, just lend it to me first. I'll give it back later" Yvvone said with a slight whine. "After this you will go to war. If there is anything with you later, I will not be able to have the tool" he added.
"Well, did you curse us, Miss Yvvone?" Saut Aksa fast.
"As an Elf girl, your talk is very rude" Nata shakes her head.
"I'm just telling the truth" Yvvone replied quickly. "It is unfortunate that the device was not used at all" he added.
"We will not die easily" replied Aksa who sounded a little irritated.
"It's good that it is" Yvvone said. "So I'll give it back. How's it?" Continue with a big smile.
Nata looked at Yvvone with a lazy look. Then take out his smarthphone from his pocket, then hand it over to Yvvone.
Ivvone looks very radiant receiving Nata Smarthphone. Soon he used it as Nata had taught him before.
"Don't break it. What else is missing" Nata later said. "The tool is not waterproof" he added.
"Yes, yes, I understand" Yvvone replied without looking at Nata. He seems to be busy with the tools in his gang.
"All right then. I went to Mr. Haldin first. I want to check, whether my order tool was ready yesterday or not" Aksa then stood up and started walking towards the exit.
"Oh, I also have to meet Mr. Cedrik to start suggesting attracting the Yllgarians to be members of his group's children" Nata also got up from his seat and walked towards the exit.
"Yes, be careful" said Yvvone who looks focused on his new toy. No matter the surrounding environment.

A day later the twelve men who planned to infiltrate the city of Guam plus Vossler and Caspian began to depart from the Western city to the Damcyan region. The boat trip took no more than half a day.
Caspian and Vossler join together for Damcyan as they prepare to invade Nalbina and Harbring in the next few days.
They sailed with three iron ships simultaneously. The remaining two ships contained 3 new combat trains. Which the craftsmen call the Destroyer Train. And also 5 ordinary combat cars.
They prepared the trains for the attack later.
.
Arriving at the port of Damcyan territory, they immediately headed to Fu city. Capital of the region. It took approximately 3 hours to get to the city from the port by using the combat train.
While 3 demolition trains take 2 hours longer to arrive to the city.
Plan 1 combat train and 1 destroyer train will be sent to the city of Gala, the capital of the Eblan region.
.
The city of Fu was not much different from most regional capitals in the Urbar kingdom. So that Aksa and Nata feel they already know the city, even though in fact they have only first come to that place.
They all lived in the residence of the noble lord of the Damcyan region while in the city.
And after meeting with the acquaintance of Anna, a Morra merchant named Bard, they immediately prepared to make a trip to the city of Guam. When using a horse carriage will take a day trip.
The next day Aksa's group, Nata, Lily, and Val, set off towards the eastern gate of Guam city. By claiming to be a rug trader from the south.
Later that same day, Axel, Sigurd, Corvette, and Maserati left for the west gate. And claimed to be a group of mercenaries from the far east who wanted to find work in the city.
And as Nata had suggested earlier, it was likely that by bribing the gatekeepers, they would be able to escape the examination easily.
It seems that this is true and proven. By bribing the gatekeepers, the three groups managed to enter the city without any significant obstacles.
Also it seems that the city's guard is not as tight as the previous border. Which they managed to pass because they took another path that Bard had told them about before.
.
The city of Guam can be compared to Kotaraja. Big and very crowded. Even in times like these, the city looks very lively. Maybe because it is far from the battlefield, making the citizens less worried about the situation that is happening.
Upon arriving behind the gate, Aksa and Nata's group were immediately greeted with a market. The atmosphere is more violent than the markets they have seen in other cities in the world.
That was because, instead of traders trading in shops and stalls, they even held their merchandise on the side of the road. To confiscate some of the use of the road.
Starting from fruits to hunting equipment. From weapons to household appliances. It all seems to be scattered on the side of the road.
Aksa and Nata's horse-drawn carriage was struggling through the streets, when Loujze had been inside the city from the day before, easily find them and drive to the inn to meet the others.
And after that the group of Fire Stars and Yllgarians came to follow.
.
They rented four rooms on the second floor. One room for a trio of hunters. One room for Aksa, Nata, and Val. One room for Axel, Sigurd, and Maserati. And lastly one room for the girls. Rafa, Lily, and Corvette.
The inn is in the middle between the first gate and the second gate. From the window of the room, they could see the second gate from a distance.
"So what did you find while you were in this town?" Nata asked as the twelve of them had already gathered in his room.
"Regarding the second gate, not many ordinary people could pass through the gate. They must have special permission. Or at least work in the residence of the nobles" Deuxter replied. "Guard them twenty-four hours. With the rotation schedule of changing guards every eight hours. And it looks like they've put a lot of guards on the top of the gate. Perhaps to keep watch from people trying to get through the gate by climbing" he added later.
Nata listened to Deuxter's explanation carefully. "What is the height of the second gate, Mr Deuxter?" Ask later.
"Perhaps about fifteen times the height of an adult male" Deuxter replied.
Nata seemed to understand. "Well then" he said later. "Tomorrow the plan to attack our troops to other areas will be carried out. We'll wait until the people in this town hear it and start panicking, after which we'll start attacking"
"But before we plan this attack further, how about we find some food first. I'm so hungry" cut Aksa suddenly.
"Oh, right too. I'm hungry too. Is there any good food in this place?" Answer Nata later. Which made some people a little confused to face the behavior of the two young men.
Especially Axel, Sigurd, Corvette, and Maserati. Who has not been too close to Aksa and Nata to get used to the strange behavior of the two people.
"I think the shop across the street had some pretty good bread" Loujze casually answered Nata's question.
"But don't you compare it to master Edward's bread, huh?" Rafa.
"Yes, that's for sure" said Aksa quickly.
And just like that, meet them at the table to then head to the shop opposite the inn. Looking for lunch.
