"Well, some places in the four regions are slowly developing, but it's not worth it for the five ruling sects to put that much effort into them, and we also don't have that kind of resources."
Azelis continued, "The four regions are peaceful, but the Heavenrend Region is not as peaceful as it looks. We get attacked by Monsters from the ocean, and also by our enemies from the Whelshwing continent on the other side of the ocean."
"What? They attack here?" John was surprised.
"Not exactly here, but at Nexus City. There are a total of six cities in this region facing the ocean. One city each for the five ruling sects, while the sixth one—Nexus City—is an island in the ocean, a part of the Mysrin Archipelago, where Tamers of the five sects intersect. Of course, they might have spies here and there have been cases of them attacking other cities here, but rarely.'
"Damn…" John was surprised.
