There is no room to doubt
Since colt won´t talk despite all our stares, I decided to end this once and for all. There was still much to do tonight after all.
"Hmph. It would have been better for you to say it on your own, but I guess that old brain of yours can´t even figure that out""Huh?! The hell you just said?!"Ignoring his increasing rage I grabbed the piece of paper, and after reading it, I exposed my conclusion."These, ladies and gentlemen, are coordinates. Here is the place and time where Colt is supposed to meet with his associates""??!!"Great doubt was shown in their faces.The idea of these numbers and symbols in my hand meaning what I said was apparently too hard to believe.The discovery was greater than I expected.Right... It is only almost at the end of the story when the author says that the people of this world don´t know about the symbology and numerology of geographic coordinates... It´s no novelty that this wouldRelated chapters

The sight was undesirable. My lady was going through a whirlwind of emotions and I was here being held by her mother's presence.When I gazed at her she gave me a warm smile followed by a whisper.Just watch.As ordered I stood my ground as I restrained my urge to reach out for her hand.Herion knelt, facing his daughter with paternal air surrounding him."Like any bet, there are times when you win and lose. When you win, a great companion is acquired, when you lose, it's a formidable enemy. The trick to this bet is to know who are you betting with"Instead of being sad, now Verónic seemed confused, a spark of hope began to twinkle within her eyes.Herion's eyes were on me. We were looking at each other, and I was getting unexpectedly nervous."That servant of yours is a good example of what I mean. When you found him at the edge of death, you trusted in your instincts and took him into our home"Flashbacks of what happened filled my min

When everything was settled we departed to the stables.A sword and a pistol were given to me along with light armor."Can I assume you know how to use these?" Asked a knight.In response, I skillfully cut the air around us.Dominique trained every aspect of his body to serve Verónica with the utmost efficiency in any situation. So of course he would know how to use a weapon.His style was similar of those ancient knights of England or Switzerland. But there was also a hint of vague savageness, characteristic of the Vikings or dark age Templars.Regarding my aim, I was not a sniper, but I was good enough to hit a target a couple of hundred meters away.

"Run! Get away from him!""HWAAAAA!""That drake is too fast! We can´t escape!""No! P-Please wai- AAARGH!""Damn it all! Turn around and kill the bastard!"The group of junkies halted their drakes and faced my direction. Their pistols and swords aiming at the air."What? Where is he?!"Confused by my sudden disappearance, the men looked everywhere with cold sweat embracing their necks."Stay together! We can take him down if we strike at once!"Following the suggestion, a ring was made with the bodies of my targets.Taking advantage of their foolish actions, I used the shadows to position myself in the center, where their backs were greeting me.Bang! Bang!I killed the first 2 with the pistol. When they realized where I was, Twilight pierced the chest of another to then chop off the head of the next junkie about to shoot me."I-Irregular""Too late to notice"Krgh."Hrg! W-Who are you?!"After reaching his hearth with the end of my sword he asked me with fear and hatred."Just a ser

When I was delivered back to the Fotiadis, the medic patched me up with magic, medicines, and other medical tools.I was inside my room, covered by the blanket of my bed. The Fotiadis family surrounded me as the doctor spoke with a notebook in his hand."Drink these pills to clean your system from the narcotics. Nausea should wear off after an hour. Also, your leg will be fine after a month of complete rest. Luckily, the blade didn´t cut deeper into your muscle, otherwise, your ability to run would have been gone for the rest of your days"A chill ran down my spine when I heard that.I saved my life and reputation with Herion, but I almost lost a leg.I need to be more careful from now on...The doctor went to Herion and handed him a note saying: "This will be enough for him". The man nodded as he thanked the medic for his services, and his wife followed both while leaving my room.Now I was alone with Verónica, who seemed quite angry.If I was in a better situation, I would be strugg

It's been five days since the offer. I still have two, but my mind still can't come to a conclusion.If I accept, the story will be modified in greater ways than I can imagine.If I don't, then I could still follow the argument of the plot, but that could lead to an irreversible end if I'm not careful.The randomness of my own story, or the questionable path pavemented before my arrival to this world."Which is the correct answer?"With that question floating in my mind, I headed to the stables. I had to take care of Twilight as my new recurrent responsibility.**"My, the black panther is here for another day of work, huh""... Please don't call me that""Haha. You should be happy that your name is now roaming through the Fotiadis house, not everyone can become famous in the land of a duke""Still... That nickname's quite embarrassing"When I arrived, the first person to greet me was the caretaker of drakes. His clothes were covered in mud and blood, distinctive colors of someone who

"My lord, I accept the offer, please let me be part of the Yatra house" Right after leaving the stables, I spent my remaining days planning my course of action for my new role. Veronica blessed me with her company during those days, explaining to me the methods to rise in the hierarchy of the kingdom. Once I was sure of my decision, I went to Herion's office to report my conviction. "Took you long enough boy, I already prepared everything for your transfer to the house, you leave tomorrow" I thought I could see a little more of a response, he was dead at this point in the original story, so I'm quite curious about his reactions. "Seems like in the end, I was only walking the road you prepared" Keeping his eyes on the paper of his desk, he answered with a sigh. "I expected you to say yes right after our come back from the raid, it is a mystery for all of us why you took so long to decide" They are not aware of the events about to happen once Veronica and I enter college, the wh
At your service, my lady Our date
As we walked through the streets of the capital, I couldn´t help but notice the glares that people were throwing at us; I also heard some of them saying things like: "I can´t believe a couple like that exists" or "Who would be so daring as to date the daughter of a duke?"I can stand several hours working under a scorching sun without sweating a break, but hearing people´s voices of jealously and mocking is another level of annoyingness."Don´t mind them, they are just curious"Reading my mind again, the beauty hugging my arm comforted my anxious thoughts."I know, I just wish they could be a little more discrete. It is quite irritating when they talk nonsense"I didn´t know what kind of face I was making while saying that, but I can get an idea from the fleeting people around us."Maybe, but they aren´t totally wrong. I am the well-known daughter of the duke Herion, and this is the first time I go on a date in public. They have enough reasons to be like that, to some extent"Releasin

All the ruckus and panic only served to make my mood worse.The staff was hurriedly taking out the customers while the capital guards entered the building and closed the zone around the corpse.One of the butlers that previously attended us practically begged us to leave. Unfortunately for him, Verónica wouldn´t have it."Miss, please, you have to leave, we can´t risk the security of our clients!""You don´t have to worry about my security, I can take care of myself just fine, and I also have him to watch my back""Huh?"Following her finger, the butler found himself trapped in my bad temperament. I knew that my expression wasn´t the most gentle since his skin became pale.I didn´t have the patience to wait for them to negotiate, so I stepped closer to the man and grabbed his shoulder."... Listen bud, do us a favor...""E-Even if you seem strong, I-I can´t let you stay, Ple-please leave at-"Cutting his words with my grip, I destroyed the distance between my mouth and his ear. Then,
