Their next destination is the church.
Because the church is the opposite side of the guild, it would take them half a day in walking before reaching their next destination.
One of the guards observed the red sky. "Let's just go to the church tomorrow, it's pretty late now."
"Well, there's an inn near here, the food in there is tasty. " The other guy suggested. "And aside from that it's pretty cheap too, about 3 bronze per person."
Hearing the cost, the young girl immediately shakes her head, " Sir it's okay, we should go now. Besides we are not tired." Lilibeth politely smiled at them.
"Well you are okay, but how about your little sister?" The two guards looked behind Lilibeth.
Lilibeth looks at her young miss, who is mumbling about something. 'How could I forget young miss? She is still young and we didn't eat much in our journey. I'm sure she is tired and hungry.'
*Grrruuummbblle*
Thinking of the delicacy that the guard said, Lilibeth's stomach growled.
"Pfft... Hahaha so you are hungry, you just needed to rest first, you are still young so you guys need to be properly fed up, right Josh?" The guard who remind them about the delicacy laugh when he heard the rebel stomach of Lilibeth.
"Josh stop laughing, it's not polite." The guard named Dan glared at Josh, and looked at Lilibeth, "You should rest first and have a fill yourself at the inn. The captain said we must take care of you guys, and besides we are far away now in the gate and the church. It's better to continue it tomorrow."
Lilibeth's face have a tint of red in her cheeks, she was originally shy, hearing her stomach in front of the two gentlemans is just shameful, she stared at her young miss and decided that it's best for them to continue tomorrow. Even if they don't have enough money right now, she can just think of another method to pay like cleaning, washing the dish, anything as long as the young miss is properly rested.
Seeing Lilibeth in front of him nodding obediently with a tint of red in her pale cheeks, Josh smilingly said, "We've been together in a day, but we didn't introduce ourselves, well.." Josh scratched his head, "Commoners are not really into in a formal greeting so we kinda forget about it."
Dan nudged at her friend Josh, Josh cleared his throat , " Yeah, that's the thing of the nobles." Josh stood straight and glanced at Lilibeth. "Well missy, now that we know your current situation with your little sister here, we should introduce ourselves."
Lilibeth looked at them and chuckled, "Yah sirs, we've been together for almost a day but we didn't tell our names." She looked at them and vow, "I am Lilibeth and this is my little sister, Li..." Lilibeth thought if it's okay to give her young miss name to others. Giving the name of her master as a servant to the others without permission is a sign of disrespect and it may give trouble to them after. Lilibeth thinks that it's best to hide her young miss true name.
Lilibeth looks at the two guards and think that they are still strangers to them, but these two guards help them and she does not want to lie anymore.
"Re.. Rene my young.. My little sister's name is Rene." This is not a lie, but not the truth either, this used to be a nickname for young miss in her childhood, and the only one who uses this name to call her now is the one who is close to young miss.
"Then miss Lilibeth and little miss Rene, My name is Dan and right beside me is Josh, 3rd guard level in Kioka Kingdom, post in the center gate. Hope we get along in a few days." Dan began to introduce himself.
"Hey hey, now we introduce ourselves, let's go to Puma inn, my lady is waiting in there." Josh patted the shoulder of his friend.
"So that's the reason why .. " Dan looked at Josh, sighing he said, "Look here, there's another inn that is closest here, and cheaper too."
"Dan, dammit Puma's inn is the only one okay? The food there is great, the person who is serving there is great.. Beautiful... charming... hehe.. my goddess is waiting for me.." Josh began to mumble to himself.
"Please excuse this guy, he's kind of blinded because of love." Dan explained.
The three begin to chat on their way,while Liberaine keeps practicing to herself.
Liberaine little by little tried to enhance her senses and notice that someone's aura is following them. She looked behind and found nothing but there's another aura aside from the three guys aura who are following them. That person's aura is so strong. Liberaine is sure that the first three people aura behind them is not really dangerous but the one who she felt far away from them. Aside from her magic she needs to practice this new physical body to become like her body on the earth, because this place has unknown danger.
Behind them, three looking thugs are following them, hiding in the dark, looking at the little girl with swollen face. First glance and you can see that this guy has a bad intention towards the group. They are giving off a vibes that any normal people will make you stay away from them.
"Hehehehe.. So that girl is the one who escaped from our boss."
"Really, we really have good luck. We find them immediately after entering this Kingdom."
"I know we are lucky to pass that gate even with the crimes we committed in the past. Well boss really have a way to get us in other places without alerting the guild and church hehe."
And far away behind these people, A man wearing a black robe looking from above the scene.
He clicked his tongue and said, "Young master... looks like you are right."
Looks like this girl is really interesting. The shadowman is sure that the little girl looks his way not on the three thugs hiding in the dark.
"I'm sure this little girl will become his past time when he becomes bored again... I need to report first."
He muttered to himself and disappeared mid-air.
