Morning has finally arrived. I am now standing outside looking busy at the Manor. I saw a lot of maids working and running around.I can also see Rita checking everything from the suit cases, utensils, foods, and essentials.As far as I know, we would be traveling and would camp in the mountain for 3 days, until we get on the nearest village for a stop and rest. We will then continue until we reach the House Edwards' territory.I'm pretty excited to see what's on the southeast region of Avalor Kingdom. I'm pretty curious about Lady Marina's hometown.I slowly walked through the carriage with a strange expression. I blankly stared at the piece of object in front of, I just looked stupid while standing in front of the carriage that would take me.That's not a freaking carriage! That's a mini van!!!I screamed in my heart.The carriage design looks like between a carriage and a car! It has freaking six big wheels! Its design seems to be the one I see in videos about the minimalist van ho

Chapter Fifty-Three.The weather in the second half of the Month of Fire (July) was already very hot. Beads of sweat continued to drip down Zen's face as he watched each side of the coach. Not to mention Vice Captain and the knight troupes, whose shirt was soaked inside the armor.Vice Captain Illiad, walking ahead of the coach, had already driven away several beasts rushing down from the mountains. We didn't encounter any bandits on the way, only some creatures. This is clearly his responsibility as a guard, but the fact that he beat off the vicious beasts without startling the horses definitely impressed me.Inside of the coach, since I kept my eyes closed all the time, and Rita was not talkative at all, so as Droon who had no one to talk to during the trip went very quite. I'm not that nervous nor scared after what happened. Surprisingly, I'm very calm and am analyzing the bandits intention. I was even more surprised at myself, that I wasn't shaking after that fight.I asked Droon

Chapter Fifty-Five. "Do you understand, Sir?" I said in a sweet tone, with a smile on my lips. Gulf. You could hear a mouthful of saliva being swallowed. "Now, shall we talk?" I said, as I lowered the dagger and smiled. The dwarf still kept his glare on me but didn't refuse. The other prisoners are silent, bowed and look away. Some of them were sweating at an abnormal rate. As if they where afraid to meet with my beautiful red-violet eyes. I was about to speak when I felt an intense stare coming from behind me. It was so intense that I could almost feel a hot laser like it was going to pierce my back. It gives the chills even though it should be hot. Now all of us are sweating in cold feet. Dang. I forgot about Zen. I looked at the dagger I was holding. It was very shiny, while the handle was made out of obsidian rock. Darker than black. The metal could almost reflect my pretty face if not for the dark expression on the other side. Gulped. 'Someone is mad... I will sleep

Chapter Fifty-Seven."Your Migfa Wine is here." The tavern owner announced. He took the Migfa Wine from the kitchen staff and handed it towards us.Before I could reach the wine bottle, Zen beat me from getting it. He tool the wine bottle the tavern owners hand and look at me.Beautiful emerald eyes were stern and full of vigilance.Okay fine.Just chill Zen. You don't need to be so tense and serious. I know we really need to get out of this place.Zen was eager to leave this place, and I understand that."We will be taking our leave now." I said as I stood up. The unfinished dishes were sitting pretty at the counter table.I took out a Nar and slammed it at the counter.“Hiccup!” The tavern owner couldn't help but flinch and be surprised by the loud sound."Thank you for the wonderful steak," I smiled and said my thanks. Truly, it was such a good steak. For a shabby looking tavern, they have good food.Zen held the wine bottle firmly and put it closed to his body. It was natural as m

Chapter Fifty-Nine.Zen cursed loudly and wiped his mouth and lips."Eww." I muttered in disgust as I gently wiped my face covered with red bloody wine."What kind of wine is that!?" Zen shouted and glared at me. I winced at what he said because I really didn't know.I know he tastes like water. I glared and Zen slightly lifted my hood to wipe my entire face."I do not know? That's why I told you to taste it!?” I uttered in a distasteful tone.Zen stared at me as if I had gone mad and he slowly shook his disbelief. "Taste it if you like," he said as he shivered, probably remembering the awful taste of the wine.He took out a handkerchief and spread his tongue out. He dabbed his handkerchief to his tongue as if he was cleaning it, trying to get rid of the lingering taste.I just rolled my eyes and looked closely at the cork. The cork is a bit bigger than I usually see and a bit softer compared to others. No wonder Zen pulled it off easily even without a cork opener.Zen looked at me an
