After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World - Chapter 400

Chapter 400: Start of the Tour
Two people from the Guide company were waiting in the lobby when they arrived. First was an orange-haired man with curly hair and then there was Lulu approached them with a smile.

The man was slightly below average height. The Aborigines were just a few inches taller than average, so a relatively tall woman like Cassandra was physically looking down at him.

“Hello, Guests!” The man said, “My name is Fred, the owner of our travel agency. You already know Lulu, your personal guide.

“I hope you rested well,” he said with a friendly smile, “Your personal tour is a relaxed tour to some of the basic accessible facilities and offerings of the territory. It will consist of a food tour, a shopping tour, and a leisure tour.

“We will not only guide you to the right places, we will also tell you a lot about these areas.

“If you have any questions, just ask Lulu and she’ll do her best to assist you.”

He then excused himself and gave them the standard salute he learned from the NPCs.

Lulu smiled and gestured for them to go out. “The lunch later would be on the premier restaurant. But seeing that you’re still full, we will move it to later. Anyway, the queue will also be shorter.”

The trio then walked outside, with Lulu chattering about. Because Lulu could sense the aborigines were tired from the long travel, she didn’t talk too much. Now that they’ve rested, her natural gregariousness exploded.

Especially… her first Aborigine guest!!

And Lulu was really fascinated by their colors. So unique!

“So where are the two pretty ladies from? Your hair is sooo pretty, I haven’t seen anything like it! How is the experience so far??”

The two looked at the energetic woman chirping. It seemed they had never seen a girl so talkative. And what was this? Her job? She gets paid for speaking?

However, even with all the questions, they didn’t dislike it.

Veronica smiled and pushed her pink hair behind her ears. “Well, I’m from Hubble town a couple days from here by beast car.”

Lulu sparked. A town!

“Yes, I have seen those!” Lulu said, referring to their mode of transportation.

To handle these carriages, the territory set a Beast Car parking near both gates. Besides these open spaces, the territory built the original modules which had a dormitory-type setting for the drivers and beast carers.

The drivers could comfortably stay here for 10 coppers a day, and the cars could park for 5 silver a day, food not included.

To guests, this was very affordable and convenient.

“I’m from Jeronia Town.” Cassandra smiled and Lulu brightened again.

Another town!

“These are Cicy and Vivi, mine and Veronica’s maids respectively. We are really loving this place so far, I can see myself staying for a while.”

Lulu was really excited to deal with Aborigines, especially ones from towns! It would help her gauge better the market in this world, and maybe they’d make even more of a killing!

“Hello, nice to meet you! And glad to hear that!” Lulu said, super friendly. “You will love living here, I guarantee it!”

She—along with others—dared to guarantee because everyone knew Oslo came from the city, and he loved it here.

It gave them confidence that even in this new world, even if compared to the better territories they could offer, their Altera Village triumphed!

Anyway, the tour soon began, and Lulu’s talent for talking shone. They started out with the shopping trip, and they were now heading towards the Market Street they passed by before.

“First we start the shopping tour, introducing some of the places caravans would frequent.”

The two nodded excitedly. Except for a few essentials, they had basically emptied out her space in the inn to make room.

While doing such an inconvenient thing, Cassandra mumbled more than a few times that she should’ve borrowed her mother’s space stone!

Veronica scoffed at the time. “No matter how favoured you are—which you aren’t, by the way—that thing cost a good tenth of her fortune back then, right?”

Though Cassandra’s mother had earned it back, much of that was due to the space stone investment in the first place. This showed that the space stone would definitely never leave the lady’s hands.

“Stop dreaming!” Veronica said, making Cassandra roll her eyes.

Of course she knew. It was a figure of speech, okay?

Anyway, the group walked along the wide sidewalk, admiring the equidistant trees with benches underneath. It not only provided a comfortable cover from the sun, some people used them as resting areas as well.

It was all quite cozy. She could even see people with bolts of blood lounging about, obviously coming from the outside to hunt or train early in the day.

How nice it was to fight outside, knowing that you would return back to such a home…

Cassandra even saw a couple, still in armor, sitting on one of the benches. They were snacking and feeding each other, with the woman blushing but feeding the man anyway.

“I did really good out there, right?” The man asked and the woman nodded, “Yes, the weapons are a success, and you were very manly.”

“Hehe.”

Anyway, the two were sickeningly sweet.

The girls felt envious.

The woman even had a scar on her face, but the man looked at her so lovingly.

Cassandra, in particular, was especially hit.

She recalled how Gill only showed public affection when Oslo was there. He had always kept a distance other times, showing sweetness only when there was only the two of them.

Because public displays was frowned upon when she grew up, she didn’t think much of it at first.

But now she knew in this place, Altera, it was quite different, and there were plenty of couples who could show affection even in public.

She couldn’t help but feel a little greedy.

She looked at the couple again with wistful eyes.

She wondered if she’d ever get that.
