Soon, I found one. A fine young lady, noblewoman. I grinned to my delight. It seems like she was furious about something, looking at how crouched her servants were being scolded by her. They are farther from where I was standing so I take a turn to further lessen our distance. I scanned her clothes and when I saw what I wanted from her, I swiftly moved past beside her. Getting the purse of money on her waist without her knowing.
I continued walking without looking back at her until she was out of my sight. I grinned as I opened the purse while my attention was focused on my surroundings. It was like a fleeting moment when I took a glance at what the purse contained and lit with glee when I saw. It was all gold coins.
"I am never wrong," I said to myself before I closed it and hid it.
I
I HANDED Hurisa the pouch of coins since she is the one who manages it. She wrinkled her forehead as she looked at what was inside it."This is the eleventh one this week. Are you planning to leave again?" she asked as she looked at me.I nodded and smiled."I plan to leave and go to the market again tomorrow so that I can give you more.”"What kingdom are you going to this time?”"To Widolla, but it will be a few more days from now.”"Do you really need to go to the market tomorrow? This is enough along with the previous ones that you’ve provided. I think it will lasts us until next month. Will you stay in t
Before the sun sets, I stopped by the falls to take a bath. It is during this time where it’s usually empty and no creatures are roaming around. When I sank my feet under the water, I took off my cloak and removed my clothes. My white garment dress was the only thing remaining that covered my body.I didn’t waste any time and I quickly soaked in the cold water. I went to the falls and turned my back, closing my eyes as the water ran down my skin.I stayed for a few minutes before I finally leave. I dived in the water once again before coming back up and squeezing my wet hair to get too much water out of it.I looked around and was surprised to notice a creature who was also surprised to see me.Everything around us seemed
I HAD a smile on my face as I walked past the last man that I robbed. He was noble enough that I didn’t need to check what was inside. I just slid the pouch that I got from him inside the bag that was draped around my waist.I walked towards the clothing store to get a garment. I ran my hand towards the fabric to feel its softness and ended up choosing a pitch dark, gloomy color which is my favorite one. I was about to pay for the cloth that I got but as I roamed my eyes around to find Vivi, my eyes unexpectedly landed at a familiar gentleman.I placed the garment back at its rack as I looked at him, my gaze staring and wandering at him. He was walking alone and with his hands at his back and his pretentious clothing, I could tell that he is a nobleman.He didn’t change at all, he still looked handsome like he had always been. He was dashing that every single lady that passed by couldn’t help but turn their heads to look at him.I heaved a sigh, knowing that I couldn’t meet him, much a
BEFORE THE sun dips down beneath the horizon, we already went back to the palace with the three dead wild pigs that we caught. I kept smirking at Adrina from time to time to tease her about not catching anything for today’s hunt.She just kept a serious face while ignoring me and that was when I knew that she’s annoyed.We were greeted by our fellows as they received the pigs and brought them to the kitchen to make dinner out of them.I was massaging my sore shoulder as we walk away from our fortress. I felt a slight pain in my shoulder from carrying the wild pig for a long time.“Where are you going?” Hurisa asked when we ran into each other.“I’ll be at the falls to take a bath,” I said
WHEN THE boat that I was riding arrived at the dock, Vivi quickly flew away from my shoulder to survey the area. I just stared at him as he flew freely in the air.The weather was beautiful and the sky was deep blue, and so was the sea.I smiled as I set my foot on the ground of Widolla. My purpose in this kingdom is not just to roam around and steal, but I also found out that this is where I’ll get to find what I was looking for for so long."The blade of my sword will welcome you once we meet," I whispered in the air.I quietly passed by the busy creatures trading and doing their business around, this is where the trading of products from different kingdoms takes place. While I was walking around, I couldn’t help but tur
I whistled to call Vivi, instinctively lifting my arm at the sight of him."Find that foolish peer who bumped into me earlier," I commanded him with a serious face and tone."Aye, My Lady. Aye, My Lady," he said before he finally flew away.I turned my gaze towards the busy creatures when Vivi left, looking to see if I could find a nobleman from them.I grinned before walking closer to my chosen target.WHEN I came back to the rental house, I was preceded by two other travellers who also wanted to rent the room. They were able to pay higher than I could so the owner immediately agreed and gave them the remaining room that was supposed to be mine.
I RETURNED the dagger to its case and placed it inside the bag that’s around my waist."What are you waiting for? Lead the way so we could get to your place," I told him calmly.He gave a strained smile and started walking but he was facing me as he does so, watching me intently as if he’s thinking that I’m gonna hurt him. He almost fell because he wasn’t looking at the way. I was about to help him but he flinched and moved away, obviously terrified."I’m not gonna hurt you. Don’t worry," I said."Really?" he asked as he looked at my hand. "Why are you still holding your sword then?"I looked at my hand and then quickly let go off my sword that was
I heaved a sigh as I looked at the lush trees that were on the side of the road. Every time the wind blows, dry leaves fall from there."My name’s Aliara," I said in between the silence. I flicked the leaf that flew towards me before I looked at him and smiled.He was surprised and amused at my smile. "You look prettier when you smile like that,” he said, flashing a smile. “Gudan’s my name by the way. I’m please to meet you, Aliara. Just don’t scare me anymore. I’ll be mad by then,” he said as he moved away.I giggled. "As you wish, Your Majesty," I said sarcastically.He widened his eyes again. "You know how to joke, huh. But it’s not funny though," he said before walking past me.I giggled before following him shortly.A few moments later we arrived in front of a house made of stone. I looked around as he lit the torch that was next to the door. I nodded, the size of the house is just right."Come and get in, Aliara," he said, smiling as he opened the door for me.I nodded and follow
