Meanwhile, after several hours of trekking, Colin arrived at the capital of the Fabados Kingdom, Nanao, before noon.
The familiar Leibo River was now frozen over. The many boats that usually dotted its surface were nowhere to be seen, leaving only a few fishermen who were ice fishing at the thin edges.
He chose this place not only because it was nearby, but also because it was familiar.
Familiarity could save a lot of unnecessary time.
In just one hour, Colin contacted the Nanao Royal Family through the well-known local land merchant, Hosone, whom he knew.

Colin successfully exchanged a few magic stones for nine death row inmates.
In fact, before coming here, he had considered other methods to obtain materials, such as attempting to find some in the outskirts of Neustadt in the Neustadt Kingdom.
