The convoy continued to travel after their encounter with the bandits. Prince Eric still remembered the scene he saw. Rogen was looking at the group and noticed their gloomy faces.The convoy traveled for another twelve hours, with the silence inside the humvees. Roger didn"t care as he wants to know what would the capital of Sirius, would look like, he then took out his notebook, the notebook contained the notes of the things he needed to investigate.
He started to arrange his schedule by writing the duration of days and hours he needed to investigate the following objectives.
Rogen asked Eric, " Prince Eric may I ask to know when will our official meeting of the proposed alliances will start. "
Eric then replied, " Well I guess 3 days after our arrival, you can rest in the capital, I"m sure you are tired after all our travel. I also need to prepare a party to introduce you. I also need to call some of the higher-ups to have a meeting with us. I also need to solve some problems in the capital city. But you don"t have to worry we will surely start the meeting at the exact designated venue and time."
Rogen replied, " Well that"s fine, I also hope to explore the capital more. Also, I"m quite interested in your culture."
Eric spoke, " Well you don"t have to worry after all the founding anniversary of our kingdom is just ten days away. So you can already see our countries history, culture, and products in one place. "
Rogen then spoke, " Well that is quite convenient, I guess I don"t have to travel the entire country to know this country even more."
Rogen then adjusted his schedule, he then wrote the activities he will be doing in the capital. They reached another, a town in which they didn"t stay long. They only ate and refueled their vehicles with gas and water. They also bought food, they bought meat, vegetables, and fruits. They already have their spices to put in their foods. But one of the soldiers noticed that there aren"t spices being sold, salt was the only thing they saw but its quality was very bad.
They continue with their travel, the sun was setting the convoy stopped at a roadside and ide their meals. The drivers stretched out after feeling their whole body cramping from just seating all day.
Eric was still amazed at the Special Forces, even they are military personnel they can cook pretty well. Eric also noticed the portable gas stove. He imagined how convenient it is to cook immediately without gathering firewood. He also so the usefulness of the portable stove in military operations.
The drivers were actually changed as they will still travel at nighttime, they wanted to reach the capital as soon as possible. After their meal, they immediately got inside the vehicles.
The convoy started to move again, this time with new drivers, the first drivers slept the back of the humvees, even it was uncomfortable, they were still able to rest.
They will be changing the new drivers in eight hours, the convoy traveled through the darkness of the night with their headlights and brake lights only viable from far away.
Eric never expected that the headlights were this bright. He only saw the headlights of cars in the country of Dariel which was filled with street lights. So he didn"t see the full capabilities of the headlights of the cars.
Eric still slept while sitting, Aljun and Tiffany were on watch with the surroundings as they were used to do this kind of job.
The humvees stopped for thirty minutes to change their drivers. The people except for the ones a.s.signed as the night watchers were awake. After they change the drivers the convoy continued to move.

Lord Valentine was still thinking at the scene he saw that morning. He cannot believe that all three hundred bandits were killed in one go. He then thought of various scenarios on how it was possible to destroy the bandits in one go.
He then read a report that the bandits were killed by some kind of object inside their bodies, the objects came in different sizes, there were big and small. Because of this, he came to a conclusion, [ Maybe there is some powerful mage with Prince Eric who could use those iron objects.]

Dariel was reading a report about the minerals brought to the university of the newly found mines. He read the paper which contained the first test. The result was actually good as the minerals were showing a sign that they are near to expensive minerals.

Sun was rising the convoy still continue to travel, the members of the Special Forces, already woke up. Prince Eric, Anya, and Crystal woke up Rogen also woke up.
Cpt. Alvarez ordered the convoy to stop, it was to refuel and cook breakfast. The drivers have also changed again 4 more hours of driving was still needed.
After the delicious, meal they have they continued with their journey. After four hours the drivers could see the biggest city they saw during the towns they pa.s.sed.
The guards of the gate were looking at the six horseless carriages approaching them. They then called their superior. The commander came out and looked at the carriages. He immediately called one his men, he then ordered his men to give a message to the king, he said, " tell his Majesty that the prince has returned."
The guard immediately left and took a horse and went to the royal palace as fast as he can.
The guard managed to inform the king about the situation, he then talked, " It seems the letter I received from Evan was correct, that he will be arriving in a strange carriage. He also brought guests judging from the number of carriages. I need to reward Lord Evan because of this.
The convoy reached the gates of the capital, they were stopped by the guards. Prince Eric then got out of the humvees greeting the soldiers. All the soldiers immediately kneeled after seeing Prince Eric.
They were able to pa.s.s through without any problem as they already expected Prince Eric to arrive with said carriages. They just made sure that Prince Eric was there, so that was the reason why the convoy was stopped for a moment.
