14. And here we go again…
The next morning we booked a passage to the capital in the north. All in all it cost me 2 gold coins for five of us. The kids looked a little bit more cleaned up than yesterday. The two carriages were going along the path together, some big belly man with his family owned the carriages so one was entirely for his use and another was half empty with some of his luggage where we were settled in. there were also three guards with us.
The three people were adventurers who accepted the quest to protect us from harm on our journey. They were 5 in total, two were sitting with each driver respectively. 3 guys and 2 girls typical party composition. The busty healer and rough looking archer with scar on her face were dangerously attractive for my weak heart.
If i said i didn’t regret leaving then it would be a lie. I was seriously looking forward to enjoy Lola’s ass and i also wanted to have some fun with the lanky wife of that jwellery stall owner but after killing those guys and making so much trouble leaving was the most viable option. Even with all that i could handle it all with my skill but the kids would never be able to live safely in this town. I could just give them somemoney and send them away, but i have a feeling that they would just end up doing the same thing in another city. So at least until i know for sure that they will be fine on their own, it just feels like my responsibility since i killed those guys. Plus i could atleast do this one favor to the owner of this body, since he gave me this wonderful opportunity to live another life.
We drove for entire morning and stopped for lunch at the afternoon, and that was the first time i saw the lady in blue. She was the wife of big belly owner, his name was stanley or something. She was sitting beside stanley on the chair which their maid had prepared for them, while the rest of us sat on the ground.
Food was not included in the passage, so we had three separate groups for lunch. The stanley family with their maid and son who was 5 or 6 i think. The adventurers group and lastly us 5 children.
None of the kids had any money to buy food to begin with so we were all emptyhanded. Once i made sure that no one was paying attention at us, i took out five instant cup noodles which i had bought and stored in my inventory before this journey. All the kids looked at me with their eyes wide open, seeing things just appearing on my hands out of nowhere.
I pour the hot water and unsealed the raper ans showed them how to eat it. After taking the first mouthful, all of them exclaimed so loudly that everyone was looking at our group. I hastily laughed and spit out some bullshit to stear everyone’s attention from us.
Hikaru - what the hell is wrong with you guys ? don’t suddenly just shout like that.
Leader (Ray) - but this…thi..are the most delicious thing in the world !!
Lily - Yeah !! i bet no one has tasted this amazing thing even in the capital….!!
Nimble & Cane - (with food in their mouth) ahmmm…yeahmmm..it..ich…delissssio…ammm..ss..
Hikaru - just eat it before speaking will you ?
Lily - but ronnie ! how can you do all this stuff ? what happened to you ? and where did you get the money !?
I looked at all of them and they all had their eyes settled on me, like trying to analyze me.
Hikaru - sigh..Okay i will say this only once so remember it clearly, understood ?
They all nodded.
Hikaru - i am not your friend ronnie. I look like him but i am not him, so forget everything that you know about me. Call me hikaru from now on. As for the things that i can do you will all have to keep it a secret in exchange i will help you reach the capital and settle down there, deal ?
Cane - but what about ronnie ?
Hikaru - he is not with us anymore. Do we have a deal ?
Ray - why do all of this for us if you don’t even know us ?
Hikaru - call it repaying a favor to this ronnie guy.
They all looked at each other and nodded. Then looked at me with expressions that said we will trust you for now. I also nodded and our deal was set in place.
After the lunch and resting for an hour or so we continued our journey once again. This time the rough looking archer and the other guy had switched with the two guys who were on driver seat before. The busty healer was still ther though, so i casually started a conversation with her.
Hikaru - So, uhm how far is the capital from here ?
Busty healer - Oh..ehm 7 days if everything goes right i think. Right will ?
Will - yeah, it mostly depends on how fast we can clear the knowing forest….
Hikaru - because of monsters in the forest ?
Another guy - No, knowing forest is just difficult to navigate. Monsters on the other hand are everywhere from here to there, but they are not the problem.
Hikaru - you guys are pretty confident in monster slaying huh ?
The busty healer smiled.
Healer - we have done this many times before, so yes we are confident.
Hikaru - well if such a beauty reassures me with a smile, one has to believe right ?
They all looked a bit taken a back with my reply, but then in just another second i saw the busty lady’s face go all red. And the rest of them started looking here and there.
‘ What was that ? Do people not flirt in adventurers job ? such weird people. The busty lady was packing some serious assets though, ahh i would love to see whats hiding beneath that white rob ! stanley’s wife was also pretty thicc looking, but she is rarely alone. Haha this 7 days will be lots of fun…. ’
