After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 506

Because of the rareness of quality tea, one could Imagine the siblings’ surprise when they saw such a large tea house with such an array of choices.

"You have interesting mixes," Olga said, reading the ’menu’. A lot of the plants were unfamiliar to her until she went to Altera, but some she knew. She just had no idea they could be mixed safely!

"These are but a few of the many mixes Ms. Althea offered. It so happened that we are one of the two accredited tea houses who could deal with her!"

"Miss Althea again, eh?" Olga mumbled, recalling that beautiful woman with bright green eyes. Obi nodded, also remembering.

"She’s everywhere."

"She’s really very beautiful and smart. No wonder Oslo fancies her so." Cassandra said, and she was a bit surprised when Olga nodded with a smile. "You’ve seen her?"

"Yeah, we encountered them on the way here," she said, "She’s definitely a one-of-a-kind beauty. Her husband was also quite handsome and dashing."

"Oh, be careful of him. He’s very rude to other women."

Olga gave her a pointed look, "Do I look like that kind of woman."

Cassandra raised her hand, "I’m just saying… that guy is very charming, after all. Can’t blame anyone."

Obi looked at Cassandra, curious about what she had to say. When he met with Garan, although his level was very very low—almost half of his—he still felt intimidated for some reason.

It tickled his curiosity as a fighter and it triggered his competitiveness. At the same time, he couldn’t have it in him to challenge someone with a much lower level than his, so one could imagine how the curiosity was eating him up.

"He’s definitely the strongest one here," he said. "Though I don’t think he had fought with Oslo, I think people said even he wasn’t confident in taking him on despite the level differences."

"Oh?"

Otto looked at them, nodding, his mind also remembering the man. "He had a special aura about him—and that Miss Althea—that is for certain."

They had been here less than a year, yet their strengths had caught up to many locals who had been surviving here for decades.

Soa was very happy to hear Miss Althea being complimented. It was even better that it was high-level aborigines who were doing it—this meant that Miss Althea, Sir Garan, and the entirety of Altera, were doing extremely well.

"If you want to get good deals it’s definitely through her. She basically owns a third of the economy here," he said. It was also around here that Soa finally excused himself, seeing as more guests had climbed up the lounge.

The Golds barely noticed him leaving, and kept to their thoughts for a while.

"The woman’s not just married to the strongest person here, she was also a force to reckon with," Olga uttered after a few moments, looking a little wistful as she said so.

It was amazing. In fact, a woman having a superior husband was already good enough, but she herself established herself to be a force in such a high-potential territory—and this amazed them the most.

Further, Althea herself had become an elementalist only after a few months. And she wasn’t just an elementalist—a rare dual one, as well!

Olga, in particular, couldn’t wait to chat with her for a longer time.

"I really want to meet her already, but Oslo said we couldn’t bother any of them at this time."

Otto nodded, "They said it’s for an upcoming beast tide,"

Obi scoffed. "Do you believe them?"

Otto shook his head. "I doubt it’s the upgrade beast tide as the village should still need a bit more to be qualified as town. I think it’s something else."

This made the group look at him. Anyway, most of the other guests were downstairs, and the second floor was a lot more private. Even the partitions had insulating properties.

"I think… they’re preparing to attack."
