两男一女的双龙挺进

"Are you really sure about this?" Aina asked as she pinched Nox\'s cheeks.

"Ouch, Mom, stop. I\'m sure of my decision. I have thought hard about it for four years," Nox responded as he lightly smacked his mother\'s arm away with an annoyed expression on his face. "And I\'m no longer a kid."

"You\'re just nine years old, brat," Nathan chimed in.

"Are you looking for a fight, old man?" Nox glared at his Grandfather, and the two had a face-off.

"Don\'t take it like that. We\'re just worried about your safety," Aina stepped in between the two just in time. "Wait right here; let me go stock food for you, so you won\'t get hungry."

Aina and Camila rushed into the room, leaving only Nathan standing with his grandson.

"Oi, brat, what are you up to this time?" Nathan asked. "You know you can talk to me freely; your overprotective mother won\'t overhear us." Nox had told everyone he was traveling for sightseeing, but Nathan knew his grandson too well. Nox wasn\'t the type to travel just for fun, especially with the challenging path ahead.

"Sigh, old man, why are you so difficult?" Nox sighed. "But before I tell you, promise me you won\'t tell Mom or anyone."

"I cross my heart!" Nathan coughed. "I won\'t tell a single soul."

Nox observed his grandfather for a while with narrowed eyes before whispering in Nathan\'s ear. The old man\'s facial expression changed to one of shock.

But surprisingly, after hearing the content, he didn\'t stop Nox.

A moment later, Aina and Camila arrived with a large bag casually slung over Aina\'s shoulder. It was twice her size, yet the red-haired woman carried it effortlessly.

"Mom, that\'s a year\'s worth of food! How am I supposed to finish all this in a month?"

"It\'s better for it to be surplus; who knows how long you\'ll take," Aina said as she dropped the bag in front of Nox. "The last thing I want is for my baby to go hungry."

Sighing, Nox reluctantly placed the food in his system storage. His mother was right; it was better for the food to be surplus than less. After hugging his grandpa and planting a kiss on his mother and Aunt Camila\'s cheeks, Nox entered the cart that was waiting for him.

Inside, Eve was already seated. After a head nod, the coach pulled the reins, and the carriage slowly left the barony.

Nathan, Aina, and Camila watched the carriage slowly depart from the barony. As they were watching, two beautiful girls walked in. One of them was as tall as Nox, with dark hair and lightless eyes. The other was a dark-skinned beauty with braided hair and mesmerizing chocolate eyes.

Nathan and the others happily welcomed their prodigal daughter, who had finally remembered they had parents. They\'d arrived just before Nox left. As they entered inside, Serena couldn\'t help but look at the carriage with wistfulness.

Inside the moving carriage:

"Did you tell them where we\'re going?" Eve inquired, looking out of the window.

"Only my grandpa," Nox replied. "I didn\'t tell my mother because, despite my strength, she still worries a lot."

"You made the right choice. Let me give you a quick rundown of what will happen when we reach the border."

At the same time, the carriage passed through the Cromwell\'s gate and was now moving through the dirt path towards the west.

"I won\'t follow you through the border," Eve\'s voice rang as the coachman picked up pace. "But I\'ll find a way to get you in. Usually, to get into any kingdom, you just have to pay the entrance fee. However, this changed since the appearance of the Dimensional Rift. It has become increasingly difficult to get into Snowhelm Kingdom."

"But how would they know we are from the Vermilion Kingdom?" Nox asked. This wasn\'t like Earth, where everyone had a passport or document indicating their nationality. He was curious about how this world worked.

"That\'s a good question," Eve replied. "In this world, each kingdom has its own unique magical signature, like a fingerprint, embedded in a parchment with the citizen\'s name. When you try to enter a kingdom, the border guards check this parchment to determine where you\'re from."

\'So it\'s similar to the Earth system,\' Nox noted.

But a puzzled expression soon showed on his face. He didn\'t know there was something like that. Why didn\'t his grandpa get him one?

According to Eve, this parchment had special signatures and was made with materials that were incredibly difficult to duplicate.

"Does this mean I don\'t belong to any kingdom?" Nox inquired. "Because I don\'t have any parchment with me."

"Yes, which makes it even more difficult for the Snowhelm Kingdom to accept you into their kingdom. Because you don\'t have an identification parchment that aligns with any kingdom, it\'s like you\'re a blank slate," Eve explained.

"But like I said, I have a plan, so you don\'t have to worry," She assured when she noticed Nox\'s contemplative look.

After that, the two didn\'t speak much, and the days gradually flew by. A few beasts blocked their path from time to time, but they weren\'t much of a threat and were swiftly dispatched by Thirteen and Fluffington.

Thirteen eagerly agreed, his body trembling with excitement to battle. Though Fluffington hesitated at first, after hearing that they could keep the beast cores, the cat threw all hesitation aside and jumped out of the taming space, ready for battle.

Over the next few days, a panda and a cat competed to see who could achieve the highest number of kills. This frightened the natural predators, and news of the duo\'s viciousness spread, causing the attacks on the carriage to cease.

The coachman marveled at what was happening. In his twenty years of experience as a coachman, he had never witnessed anything like this. He had heard about Nox\'s beasts but had never seen them in action.

This was by far his most peaceful journey. The coachman even wondered if the panda and cat could be hired for future trips.

As the days passed, Nox finally arrived at the border.
