Chapter 252 Oxwadeshire, the Academy Town

Although Oxwadeshire was within the Wildenhall Kingdom, the kingdom did not have much influence over the city based on their agreement, so it was like a sovereign state that also had its own council and was led by the headmaster of Oxwade Academy, Eliphas Ingranius.

The bustle of the city was immediately felt by Allen and Felicia, who had been waiting for 4 hours to queue to enter the city. As the new school year was about to begin, the city was getting busier than the royal capital. As soon as they started queuing, the rest of the accompanying soldiers went home. Now there were only four of them with the coachman.

"Are we there yet?" Felicia asked the coachman.

"Already, My Lady, we will go straight to the rental house district."

"Good... I'm already tired."

As they entered the gate, they immediately heard the noise of the bustling city, but the noise was a little strange, with all kinds of sounds that Allen had never heard before. So he opened the curtains of the carriage door and noticed something extraordinary.

"Felicia! What's that?!"

He pointed to something outside.

"What? Why are you so surprised?"

"That too! That one too!"

"Aw I just realized that you're a side-country boy who doesn't know anything... No wonder you've never seen a demi-human."

"Demi-human?"

"Yup, the academy town connects humans around the world and other races worldwide."

After a pause, she realized Allen had heard her seriously and was asking for more explanation.

"Demi-humans are a half-human and half-beast. They are basically furries that resemble humans. The incredibly short ones are dwarves, while the pointed-long-eared ones are elves."

"Amazing, where have they been all this time? Why have I never seen them?"

lightsΝοvel "We humans do not coexist with other races. The cultural differences between races cause tremendous culture shock. It would be better if we lived separately so as not to create hatred.

Oxwadeshire is the only town on this continent with residents of different races."

"Does that mean they can live harmoniously in this town?"

"I don't know; it's possible; I'm new to the academy, so I do not know too much. From what I know, they just come to study. I've read that the reason this city has survived despite the gathering of all kinds of races is because of Principal Eliphas.

Everyone, all kinds of races, respected him. And he has an extraordinary charisma that can influence every race."

"So people like that really exist."

The carriage then suddenly stopped very roughly.

"Hey! Be careful; what happened?"

"Pardon me, Lady. The line also suddenly stopped."

"a traffic jam? Maybe we should have come a week earlier," Rachel said.

"I can't help it; I'm already tired of being on the train. I'll walk all the way to the rental house.

Rachel, please look after our luggage and take us to the rental house. Allen is coming with me." Felicia said as she prepared her bag and gave it to Allen.

"Do you know the way to the rental house?" asked Rachel.

"We have a map; based on this map, we just need to follow this carriage line."

"All right, Lady. Be careful on the way."

Felicia and Allen got out of the carriage.

At first glance, the buildings in Academy Town appeared strikingly similar to those found in the main district of the capital city. However, there was a noticeable distinction: the majority of structures in Academy Town were three to four stories high. Their boundaries could only be distinguished by the varying colors of their walls. This unique architectural characteristic added to the charm and identity of this vibrant neighborhood of different races.

Upon stepping out and venturing into the city, Allen found himself captivated by his surroundings. The city's inherent charm lay in its diverse races and the presence of unprecedented elements not seen in the previous city he had visited.

"Somehow, it feels like I'm not in the world I'm used to," Allen said.

"No wonder; you're not the only one who thinks so because the technology in this place is a bit different and a bit more advanced than the outside world."

The term "a little more advanced technology" refers to certain technologies that are prevalent among elves and dwarves but not commonly utilized by humans due to the inability to replicate them without access to blueprints. These races tend to withhold their innovative ideas from others. A prime illustration of this is the gas stove observed at food stalls and the water wheel spotted in the river. These examples highlight how certain technological advancements remain exclusive to specific races. Since the academy has many kinds of races, the technology in the academy town is more advanced in this world.

When Allen tried to peek into some of the buildings, he could see the words "Special restrooms for demi-humans," "vegetarian eatery," and other weird building names that he never saw in other cities.

"You were disgusting humans; you did that on purpose, did you?!" The voice sounded strange in Allen's ears; it buzzed like two voices were speaking at once.

Allen immediately looked around him, searching for the place where he heard the voice. Felicia, who immediately knew the voice's origin, ran straight to the source of the sound.

The source of the voice came from the crowd of people at the end of the line.

"Oh, this must be the reason for our traffic jam earlier," Felicia said.

They both peered through the crowd, and a man was leaning against the river railing.

"Did you perhaps just make an accusation against me? An honorable human being has just been accused by a fishy beast!" the man said. He spoke to the creature in the river.

"Felicia, what is she doing down there?" asked Allen, because what he saw was not one, but ten scaly creatures looking at the human above him with angry faces.

"Those are Sirens; they are sea creatures."
