A Journey no End Chapter 117
I’m still troubled by what happened earlier this morning.To release the stress on my mind. I get a quest from the town guild and do some monster hunting.I don’t want to rust my sword skills, I wanted to continue improving myself.When Seele made her move earlier, there is nothing I could do. If Konoha is not strong enough to counter her. She may be already done.Konoha's strength is unreal.How could she move so fats like that and she tamed a familiar? I can’t read Konoha’s presence properly, but it seems like she is not a bad person. She always retorted to peacefully taking things.Currently, my quest is about hunting forest wolves. According to the guild, there are lots of them lately.From what we saw the other night. I guess the rotten corpse draws the pack of wolves to come to this part of the forest. Carnivore hunts food with their senses. They always look forward to another feast instead of staying in one place. Normally, they would come here where food is everywhere.That ni

Luke’s mission was to kill a princess. Valor’s mission always comes from the higher-ups in the royal family. The only shady part was… Why is the royal family targeting its family members?“You must be wondering why?”I don’t put too much emotion on my face, but he can still read my thoughts. Luke, you’re terrifying.“It's true. Why will the royal family kill their own family? Are they that cold-blooded?”“I was in shock when I heard my mission. I questioned the majesty and he answered me quickly. He said Alicia was not of royal blood. Alicia was a mistake by the king's mistress. The real father of Alicia is an ordinary farmer. It was a rumor all around the kingdom. She’s going to be killed for the shame she brings to the country. As far as I’m concerned, it’s an easy job, Alicia doesn’t have great magical abilities or combat skills.”“If it's easy, why are you the one who took the mission? You are the strongest in the family.”“You have skills at flattery.”“You’re just modest.”“It's

“Sorry, we have to tie you down.”Emilco said while looking at the newly woken up blonde girl. The cafe is already closed and no one is in the cafe except Konoha and me.The blonde girl struggles herself and tried to untie the rope binding her both hands behind her back. Her body we’re also tied to a single chair and her mouth was covered by masking tape.She is mumbling words we can’t understand while looking at us with a sharp gaze.“We should at least talk to her.”Konoha said.“Big sister Konoha is right big sister Seele.”“I don’t know about it… We don’t know if she is a top-tier assassin deployed to kill us.”“There is no way she can move from her position right now.”Emilco argues with her big sister.Seele thinks about it and scratches her cheeks with her index finger. She turned her glance on Konoha.Konoha's peaceful mindset is currently influencing them. It's the same for me, I can understand what Seele is going through right now.Seele made a deep breath and walked toward

We leave the cafe and go back to Inn.I recommended the same Inn where Konoha and I rented for tonight to Alicia. Alicia’s room is next to us. This is great because I can at least guard her. In case, Luke finds her location and is attacked at midnight.No, Luke will attack at midnight. Attacking at the night is likely for an assassin. Assassins take advantage of the night and darkness to get away from their victims.I get up from my bed and turned my head to Konoha whose sleeping soundly.Her face is childish and cute. It's a shame that I’m not able to marry her. I already decided to marry Tarte instead for the status and money. Konoha deserves a man better than me.Someone who has hands tainted with blood. Don’t deserve to live happily with a nice girl like her.I have my sword and equipment ready. I get out of the room silently. I make sure Konoha wasn’t woken up. I sneak outside and hide in the tree facing Alicia’s room. In this location, I’m able to observe her and if someone ente

On the next day,Konoha and Ren go to the cafe to have breakfast. Upon arriving at the cafe, we saw a closed sign. Konoha peeked inside from the window and saw the two sisters packing their things. Konoha knocks on the window to pull intention.Seele opened the door.“Sorry but we’re close… I think we’re going to close this cafe forever.”“Why? Fried chicken and coffee in your cafe are great. Closing down this cafe is like snatching a gift given to this cruel world.”Konoha replied.“Thank you for the compliment… We made some breakfast. You two could join us…”Seele turned her glance to the person standing at a distance behind Konoha and Ren, seemingly embarrassed.“... You can also join us.”“Th-Thank you very much.”The three were welcomed to have breakfast with the two sisters. They would be happy that they could have this breakfast because they might never see each other again. While they were all sitting down at the table, Seele explained why they were packing their things. The t

“Hey, is he always like that?”Alicia said, her half-opened eyes directed to Ren, who was leading the path toward the next town they were visiting. Konoha casually walks beside Alicia and thinks everything was perfectly normal.“He's a bit shy and had no idea about socializing. I’m surprised how he survived his past years being alone.”Konoha said.“ Aren’t you the same way as him?”“I’m different in many ways… You see, Ren is more like an introvert. I like going out, so I’m an extroverted person. While traveling I meet lots of people and learn many things. I grew strong because of those meetings and the memories I gather with them will forever live in my heart.”“You speak passionately… Kinda reminded me of overacting actors in a theater play.”Konoha's eyes’ glimmered.“Theater plays… I like theater plays… What kind of plays did you watch? What are your favorites?”“Well, I’m not actually a fan… Actors and actresses are just bunches of liars. I mean, their work is acting. I bet they

Konoha and Alicia had their hair still slightly soaked from the bath. They took a bottle of fresh milk and chugged it down. Leaving a satisfied expression on their faces.Alicia stared directly at Konoha and said:“I know you’re cute, but right now I can see that you're far cuter than normal cute.”Konoha had no idea what Alicia’s words meant. What is cute above? Is it pretty? Is there a measurement of how cute one person can be? But if what Alicia meant was, Konoha was cute. She is very pleased to be praised.Afterward, the two girls go to the receptionist to pay.“The man with you two had already paid your fee… Also, he said that he was going to the guild hall.”The receptionist said.“Oh, that’s gentle of him.”“I think it's normal for a man to pay for the girls. It's in the culture.”Alicia added.“Really? That felt unfair… What if the man is broke? I feel like I’m mugging Ren.”Konoha said worrisome.Konoha hadn’t had a romantic relationship before and never knew how a man treats

The day after, everyone decided to stay in the city. Konoha and Alicia were alone together. Ren is currently busy training in the woods beside the city.Konoha suspects Ren will be running away like before, but this time Ren makes a promise to Konoha that he will not go anywhere. She gave trust to Ren. She didn’t make the wrong decision because Ren is not the type of man who easily breaks promises. One of his principles was to stay true to his promises. People who break promises are worse than scum.Ren behaved himself and just took an adventuring quest clearing wild monsters around the city.The day became a girl's day, since Konoha and Alicia were all alone. Konoha did think this was a perfect time for her and Alicia to know each other more.While they are walking in the street. Konoha has squid balls placed in a disposable container. She spoke to the squid with a toothpick and placed it in her mouth.“Konoha does eat a lot for a girl… How could you eat something like that? Street f
