Chapter 611: The world of Yer and Aeni (part-1)
Yer, the intelligent humanoid species found to exist on hundreds of planets in the present, were once the natives of a planet named Yvern.
Due to a battle between the army of Gods and demons, that occurred long ago, their planet was caught in crossfire, and in a desperate attempt to save millions of lives, the Celestial Empire of Heaven separated the survivors and randomly sent them to habitable planets, across the galaxy.
As a result, a batch of a few thousand Yers ended up on this unnamed planet, only to realize that the planet was already ruled by an existing intelligent beast-type race called the Aeni.
At first, it was all about survival.
As time passed, the nature manipulation techniques that were passed down the generations and further improved by the descendants made it possible for Yers to claim a share of the land as their right too.
Fortunately for them, Aeni don't depend on water for survival. Hence, Yers managed to build settlements around the lakes, eventually developing them into kingdoms.
Based on the Yer species' images provided by Aria by performing deep planetary scans, Azzy and Leah used them as a reference to use disguise skill cards when they were still in space and transformed into a Yer couple.
Both of them transformed into the humanoid race of Yer, with pale white skin color, alongside distinctive facial features such as long, pointy ears like the elves, large and expressive eyes with gray pupils, silver-haired, and finally, lightning-shaped markings that extended from their left eye to the middle of the cheek.
As the spaceship continued to orbit around the planet like its moon, it launched a beam of light onto the planet.
Through this, Azzy and Leah were teleported to the wilderness with their soul orbs being sealed.
The first thing, upon entering the world, is to calmly sit on the ground in a lotus position and meditate. It was something their master, the guardian god, taught them to do whenever they visited an unfamiliar world.
Both of them went on familiarizing themselves with the planet's atmosphere, gravity, natural energy, etc…

As the planet's gravity is only 3.7 times that of their home planet, it didn't pose any problem. And the natural energy was the same everywhere, for it is nothing more than a part of Goddess Gaia's divinity.
The second most major problem both of them had to deal with was the oxygen levels on the ground. They are way too high.
Getting accustomed to unfamiliar Gravity is something normal for top-tier Arcana masters as they experience places with gravity manipulation atleast once in their lives. But, breathing is different.
Without soul energy protecting the body from hyperoxia, either they had to constantly use natural energy manipulation to expel excess air from their body or breathe very slowly.
Azzy, with this divine physique, is capable of adjusting to any environmental condition within seconds.
Hence, his meditation only lasted ten seconds.
But, Leah seemed to be facing trouble with something. Azzy saw a frown on her face as he opened his eyes.
He, however, didn't disturb her. Instead, he waited in patience while spending his time scanning his surroundings with his Aura sensing.
Roughly a couple of minutes later, Leah finally opened her eyes and let out a sigh, "Nature manipulation is tougher than I expected. It was easier when I used it in sparring sessions."
Azzy didn't respond to her comment and instead changed the topic, "I sensed a lot of life forces nearby. Judging by the scale, it must be a village. Shall we visit? We should first change our clothes. Until then, let's cover up with robes."
"Yeah, let's go." Leah got up and started walking with him.
After a 20-minute walk, while casually chatting about various things, such as their life experiences during the time they were busy with their own lives, they eventually reached a small village filled with stone houses everywhere.
The land, however, is quite barren though. No trees or water bodies were sighted around.
As if that wasn't strange, the first person they encountered at the entrance of the village happened to be a Yer with a different appearance.
Overall features might be pretty similar, but neither did this guy have any markings on his face nor his skin color was pale white.
Instead, it was light blue.
Azzy and Leah were taken aback by what they saw.
As the six-legged creature resembling a mix of a giant spider (legs) and a crocodile (upper body) let out a hiss and then a growl while its legs started shivering, its master, the villager with light blue skin suddenly took what seemed like a Bo staff out of nowhere and pointed at them, "who are you? Identify yourselves."
Azzy turned around to walk away upon sensing clear animosity from the fellow. Not to mention the sudden appearance of the layer of natural energy over this stranger's skin.
Unlike in the previous world where the native humans spoke the same language of Orlon for some reason, the language was completely unfamiliar here.
He didn't understand a thing what the guy had said but it was clear that they weren't welcome.
"Let's return to the ship, Leah." Azzy wanted to leave, realizing that their biggest hurdle wasn't breathing high levels of oxygen but to converse with the locals. Even their appearances seemed off at the moment.
He couldn't help but wonder whether Aria messed up.
Leah grabbed his arm to stop his movements, "Let me handle this."
As Azzy turned around, Leah removed her hood and used sign language, which is basically a universal language according to the guardian god.
Azzy didn't bother to learn it because of his dependency on the Reaper in unexpected situations but Leah mastered it.
Using sign language, she basically said that they were not enemies but mere travelers who wanted to rest in the village for some time.
Azzy, meanwhile, observed the guy.
This fellow had retracted his natural energy layer, threw down the weapon, and was currently staring at them in shock.
While Azzy had no idea whether the guy understood the meaning behind his partner's actions or not, at the very least, that animosity disappeared.
Surprisingly, Azzy felt the emotion of fear from this guy.
"Hmm… was he afraid of us? Is it because of our skin color or something? Or did he sense my Sage core and realize the gap of strength?" he wondered.
His suspicions became evident as the strange who came out of his daze quickly jumped onto the ground and kowtowed to them, "Greetings, Your Highnesses. I… I… extremely apologize for my rudeness. Please show mercy upon me."
Azzy and Leah looked at each other in surprise.
"What is he saying?" Azzy went closer and whispered in her ear.
Leah looked back at him blankly, "How the fu*k do you expect me to know that? I don't know their language."
"Ah, that's right. I forgot." Azzy cussed himself in his head, for acting like a stupid.
*Ahem* He cleared his throat out of embarrassment and asked, "So, what now?"
Leah looked at Azzy and then at the kowtowing Yer, "Let me handle this and just do as I say. We'll be fine. Now, follow me."
"Aye, Aye, Your Highness," Azzy jokingly said as he gestured to her to take the lead.
Leah then straightened her back and walked toward the stranger. He remained in the same position and said many things like he had a family, kids, and so on…
She slightly bent down and patted his shoulder twice.
As he raised his head to look at her, Leah then pointed her finger to the village and gestured to him to follow them and walked into the village without looking back.
