Soon, Nathan and the others reached Utopeia.
There were many inns in Utopeia, and they all had hot springs.
Naturally, Nathan and his family checked into the largest inn. The inn they had chosen had two separate hot springs, one for men and the other for women.
As the place could not take in so many people, Marcus and the other staff members went to look for another inn.
After placing the luggage in their rooms, Nathan and his family rushed for the hot springs.
Nathan, Colin, the Elite Eight, and Benson went for the open-air hot spring while all the women went for the indoor hot spring.
Unbeknownst to Nathan, someone had been watching them from the time they left the airport.
The one who was spying on them was sent by the King of the North.
Lucifer was well-informed on the whereabouts of Nathan and his gang.
When he found out that Nathan and the others went to Utopeia, he sneered and instructed Sky, "Tell Victorthat I have a task for him."
Sky queried, "What is it, Sire?"
Lucifer continued, "Tell him to find an excuse to get rid of Nathan and the others."
Sky widened his eyes as he exclaimed, "It's true that Victor is an infamous bandit leader and a ruthless man in the North. He may even have firearms but he wouldn't have the guts to kill Nathan!”
Lucifer laughed, "Those savages would never have met the General of the North. Do you think he knows that Nathan is the General of the North? All you need to tell them is that Nathan and the others are a group of businessmen. Tell him that he'll be rewarded for this job, and he'll definitely agree to it."
Sky gasped, "That's a good idea!"
