Julius guided Jared to a rather ordinary room and respectfully said, “You may rest here. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call me.”
“Thank you, Mr. Poulsen!” Jared responded gratefully, acknowledging the courteous treatment.
Just when Julius was about to step out of the room, Jared suddenly halted him.
He asked, “Mr. Poulsen, can I ask you something?”
“Feel free to ask me anything!” Julius responded.
“Mr. Poulsen, are all the inhabitants here beast cultivators? Are there humans living in the city?” Jared inquired with curiosity.
Julius shook his head. “There are no humans here. We're all beast cultivators, and we're a part of the beast race. The humans have their own territories, so they won't live among us.”
“You mean no humans have ever set foot here before?” Jared could not help but express surprise. It's such a vast city, yet no humans have discovered it or come here before?
“Humans do come to our city. We often invite some alchemists over to aid in refining pills or seek medical assistance,” Julius explained. “You see, it's nearly impossible for us beast cultivators to become alchemists, so we can only rely on them!”
Jared nodded in understanding upon learning that the beast cultivators could transform into human forms but were unable to become alchemists.
“Are there any other questions?” Julius asked softly.
Jared shook his head. “That's all I want to know for now. Thank you, Mr. Poulsen!”
After Julius left, Jared remained in the room, quietly adjusting his breathing and slowly recovering his strength.
