Days later...

After traveling for more than a week on the high seas, Minos experienced several problematic situations, encounters with sea creatures and humans, and also known the storms on the high seas.

If his yacht had not been a grade-4-rated one, it would probably be at the bottom of this sea right now, destroyed by the powerful waves he had faced during a day of travel.

On that day, gigantic waves had formed near the coast of the Western Empire, with the sea so rough at the location Minos had been until then, causing his yacht at times to be tossed aloft by the choppy waters.

Fortunately for Minos, besides his yacht being of good quality, he saved it countless times from falling from heights of up to 50 meters using his Chaotic Gravity.

But even with the characteristics favorable to it, Minos' yacht had suffered several deformations in recent days, not enough to lose its integrity, but enough for anyone to notice such damage.

However, not only the damage caused by bad weather could be seen on Minos' yacht. Some traces of battles, such as dents in the deck, and giant scratches on the ship's hull, could easily be seen on this yacht.

Minos had fought some violent sea beasts in the last few days, beings not so powerful to threaten his existence but strong enough to leave traces of their movements behind.

But Minos had had to deal with not only battles and storms these past few days. The day before, he had met a more peaceful group of beasts with whom he had been able to do business and exchange information.

Not only that, but after a few hours together, he had managed to get the help of two group members, who were sailing alongside Minos now.

Both were in their humanoid forms, traveling with Minos on his yacht while guiding him to the City of a Thousand Races, which supposedly was not far from them.

They already wanted to go to that city. After doing business with Minos and seeing that he was not a bad person, they offered their help to guide him there, provided he fed them.

Sea beasts could eat anything, not just seafood. And since they usually had no options other than what they found in the sea, when they could eat medicines and land foods, part of them greatly appreciated the opportunity.

As such, once again, Minos had won allies through his food, and now he was no longer traveling alone!

...

"Ed, we will arrive in the City of a Thousand Races area in no more than three days." A woman with orange hair, 1.7 meters tall, large breasts, and a lean body, said, as her bestial scales served as clothing to cover her privates.

'Ed' heard that and said. "Really? I didn't expect it to get there so fast. Have you been to this city before?"

Hearing that, that woman's husband, a member of a race of fish neither influential nor too weak to be ignored in the underwater world, said. "Ed, Sapphire has never been to the City of a Thousand Races, but I have been there twice."

Minos looked at that man, very similar to Sapphire in many ways, only someone with a more muscular body, tall and short hair.

He heard from Randall. "That place is the most fantastic place you will probably ever have the chance to visit.

There are all kinds of sea beasts there, swimming areas for beings in a hurry, areas that can take in humans, like you, but also a building model that seems to have no end.

Once you are close to the city's center, you will feel as if all that exists in the world is that grandiose construction capable of hosting over 80 million beasts simultaneously."

Minos listened to that with interest, curious to see this place that Henricus Longus had passed long ago.

At the time of this ancient God, the City of a Thousand Races was already as Randall was telling, a glorious place, full of things that a human would never see in a human city.

At the same time, there were commercial and tourist attractions that could attract not only beasts from all over the Spiritual World but also humans.

Many marine items could be used to develop artifacts and spiritual pills, so even though they were more helpful to underwater beings, many of the resources in this city could attract beings of land races.

Because of this, there were even humans living in the area, some even staying in this city almost permanently and raising their families there.

"As for the thousand races, forget about that. There are many more species in the city than one can count." That orange-haired man said, smiling as he sat on the deck of Minos' yacht. "That name refers to the time when an association of a thousand tribes created the city. But after the creation of this city, which is a free spot for any species, beings of many other species went to live there."

The underwater world was like the terrestrial one. It had the territories of tribes, territories of beasts that did not belong to any group, territories of sea kingdoms and empires, and so on. To get an idea, while there were less than 20 human states in the entire Spiritual World, the Ancestral Sea alone had more than 500 territories claimed by beast groups.

Some of these groups functioned more or less like land beast groups, living in areas where humans had no interest in developing cities and agriculture. But there were others where sea beasts held their dominion, as humans, dragons, elves, and other powerful beings from the Spiritual World would.

Some empires were even larger and more powerful than states like the Evergreen Empire!

Such was the case with the Sea Folk, a race of underwater humans with one of the world's five strongest states!

To give you an idea of the strength of this group, they were ranked next to the elves, dragons, whales, and the human empires of the Divine Continent.

Hence, the underwater world was a vast space with various owners and laws, with the natural problems that came from this, such as wars, oppression of certain groups, etc. Amid this, a city where everyone was accepted and free had been developed.

This was the City of a Thousand Races!

Because of this, this place flourished, and today it was much larger than at its foundation, being a place well-liked by beasts from all over the ocean!
