Nick understood why bellania was smiling when he heard the the requirements. "and I assume you are going to fill the first requirement if i accept your invitation correct?" nick asked calmly. bellania laughed "i like you already you learn quickly , so to reiterate you'll play the part of my boyfriend and I'll support your campaign for king , deal?" she said while holding her hand out which grasped and shook. "deal , however know that it will never go further than me acting like your boyfriend." nick said seriously. bellania frowned slightly but let out a sigh of defeat. "well i suppose that's the best i can hope for so that fine. now on to business , where are you going to be staying so i know were to find you in case you are needed for your part." bellania said calmly. nick thought for a moment " i will probably stay at the edge of the city walls in an isolated area since i wouldn't like to be disturbed for unimportant reasons." nick said seriously. bellania raised an eyebrow at what nick said.

"If you didn't want to be disturbed for unimportant reasons there are other places you could stay whats the real reason you want to stay in that area?" bellania asked curiously. nick laughed "rather sharp yourself , the true reason is that i don't want anyone to see me train so they can't make plans around me." nick said calmly. bellania nodded "that makes sense since you would need to fight the other candidates in a tournament to find out which is the strongest which while not the most important thing needed it certainly helps quite a bit." she said honestly. the two chatted about a few topics of little importance after that till they finally entered the city an hour later at which point nick said his farewells before parting with the carriage and making his way around the city walls to find a place to stay. nick walked for about twenty minutes before he found a part of the city that was overgrown and had a rundown wooden shack barely holding together. nick thought this spot was perfect since the area obviously didn't have much traffic so he could cultivate in peace. yes the real reason nick wanted to be isolated was so no-one noticed the energy fluctuations he released while cultivating.

The first thing nick did was clear out the rampant plantlife before he demolished the old shack and using the system replaced it with a small one room house made of a tough granite stone that made the building look very strong but otherwise bland. the interior however revealed that the small building was merely the entrance to a stairway that went twenty feet below the ground before opening into a massive complex of several rooms with different purposes that put even the most luxurious mansion in this world to shame with artificial lighting and gold and marble like materials making up the walls and ceiling. there was one room in particular that had an array in it that gathered the small amount of qi that existed on this planet so that nick could cultivate even if slowly. what nick was unaware of was that by placing that array set this planet down the path of having more qi since it was a universal rule that on any planet the amount of qi available is always greater than what is used so by using the qi nick unintentionally increased the amount on the planet and while this increase was minuscule at the moment it will reach the b.a.r.e minimum for qi s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e individuals to start feeling it.
