The next week went without much activity.

Sam spent most of the time in research and didn't bother with his friends, they are getting more and more nervous about the situation and didn't know how to break the ice.

They would have been more at ease if Sam yelled at them or even beat the crap out of them. But here he is making their lives a living hell without even doing anything.

This is completely new for them.

After the week, the promotion really did come. There is still a week before the elections start and now Sam decided to leave before the election is over.

He knew that both the factions are currently not keen on him and once they are done with elections they would try to make his life unpleasant.

But these people of both factions in the town don't have that much authority in a larger scale.

If Sam moved to the capital before the elections are over and they decided to still find him and mess with him, they would have to get the help of their superiors in that capital city.

Which is not exactly a pleasant thing to do. Unless they give out a solid reason, they don't have the authority or ability to move their own superiors.

Sam would by then have new cards just like this restaurant and recipes which would make it easy for Sam to evade. Particularly when he knew that the next elections would be held in the city. The same scenario would be happening in that place. The factions cannot move directly and Sam can be prepared for the hidden elements.

They didn't waste any time leaving the town after the news of the promotion came. Raunak already finished his handing over procedure and is ready to leave which made it easier for them to leave this place.

They are going to leave in a centaur carriage. This centaur is not only responsible for riding the carriage, but he is also a guard of Raunak. This is new for Sam.

Both of them seemed friendly and the centaur is not even feeling bad that he has to drag a cart.

He is even happy to see Raunak.

"We grew up together on this planet since childhood. We are both alone and orphans so we are kind of friendly. I am allowed to hire a guard when I was working in the town, so I decided to pull him in. He will also get the Civilian rights because of that."

Sam just nodded at the explanation and boarded the carriage and closed the door before the trio could board it.

"Let's leave."

This is the only thing he told without even looking at the trio.

The trio has to follow them on the beasts.

The Centaur is actually quite fast. The main thing is his endurance. A normal cultivator at the same level as the centaur can also achieve this speed, but they wouldn't be able to maintain it at such intensity.

The journey took three days.

They passed through many villages and another town on their way and Sam is in awe at the uncanny resemblance of this place with the earth. The resemblance is mostly with the rural areas.

If he took the cultivation out of the equation, then everything is extremely similar.

There are tree farms, animal pastures, fisheries, and a lot of crops.

One thing that gave him an even more surprising is the coconut farms near the city.

The city is called the Capital-2. There is no specific name and even this city has a lot of fields surrounding it.

Sam is already down to his next research project. He has to find a way to buy a coconut farm so that he can research the coconut fibers.

Coconut trees are one of the most useful trees back on the earth. Every fiber of the tree, from the roots to the leaves is useful if they are used properly.

The usage of the coconut itself doesn't need to be explained, it is one of the most filtered and purest forms of water with a lot of minerals in it. The water is so pure that it can replace a saline IV drip.

The fibers of the coconut can be used to weave one of the best ropes that ever existed and in some places it was used to create makeshift clothes, apart from that, there are many other uses for them that even the spines of the dried leaves are used to make brooms. And these brooms are favorites of Indian housewives for generations.

Apart from them, the oils, soaps there are many sectors that use the coconut or any other part of the tree to their advantage.

Sam is really excited to see if the coconut trees here are just as useful.

Anyway, he is in this world looking for a plant fiber and he would research every plant fiber he could get his hands on.

After they entered the city, they rode directly to Raunak's house.

Sam cannot stay there, due to some rules as the bureaucrat's identity is a bit sensitive and as the newly promoted official, there will be a lot of eyes on him.

Particularly the faction 1 who are certainly aware of the relationship between him and the daughter of that noble.

Nobody knows about Sam. But he would surely get some attention. It is okay that both of them have some relationship, but it would be better if they are not too close.

After visiting his house, the two of them went to the administration office since there is still a lot of time left in the day.

They are doing two things now. One of them is to get the joining order of Raunak and the other thing is to get the civilian identities of Sam and his friends.

The restaurant was registered and four of their names and even the recipe auction was done under the name of the restaurant.

Their tax amount after the auction is actually a lot, it is sufficient to at least get civilian identities for at least fifteen members.

Raunak already helped them create the identities in the town and now he is going to help them transfer the identities to this city, and also their civilian identity.

Since he was in a bureaucratic school, he made a lot of connections. As Sam said, he is an ambitious and resourceful guy and he managed to help many of them with their problems. That included his seniors, his peers, and his juniors.

He helped them in school after they graduated and many other tasks that helped them graduate. And every person he helped is a guy who has a decent background. Elves might be condescending to the people other than themselves, but they knew how to make use of the people that are capable.

Raunak knew that he could be useful and in return, all he needed are small favors he didn't need them to help him his career. All he needs is them to not mess his plans.

So, he can pull those minor strings to help with these minor things. There are tens of thousands of civilian identities registered every year, all he is doing is speeding up the process with all the legitimate documents.

After the process is completed, Raunak handed the identity tokens to the trio and told them which inn Sam is going to stay in.

Sam left on his own. He didn't go to the inn straight away. He went roaming. There is a market area which is vast and ten times larger and diverse than the one in the town.

Just like the town, there are many restaurants and he saw some loaves of bread that are being sold. This place has wheat too.

There are poultry shops that are selling birds like the spirit fowls and some others. Most of them will be useful for the lower-level cultivators so that they don't have to hunt for every time they want to eat meat.

Society is well-rounded and civilized enough.

Sam looked at different things, ate all kinds of food, and met with many merchants and workers of restaurants, vendors, and even some residents.

The situation of the whole city is festive. After the election in the town is over, the election procedures in this place will begin.

They will be given another two months for the campaign. Sam really felt like he was lucky that he came at this time.

These elections are so easy to take advantage of. In a democratic society where the leader's position completely depends on the opinion and tastes of the people, there are too many things they had to care for and there are too many things they had to consider.

Their abilities get limited.

Limitations placed on them by themselves. In this kind of place, the one who can manipulate and control their enemy's actions will easily win.

Sam is confident that he can easily survive this place. In fact, he can create an organization that rivals the organization in the desolate realm.

He couldn't help but smile at what an interesting game it is going to be.
