A Journey no End Chapter 120
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

Being able to see firsthand what Konoha could do, Alicia and Lucy looked very impressed. Alicia saw Konoha fight before, but she still wasn’t sure if she was truly strong like her big sister Yusael. At the current moment, she is quite sure that Konoha might be as powerful as her big sister or exceeded.“I was overkill… I lost control because of the stress I was feeling.”Konoha said.The horned wolf made their escape, intimidated by Konoha’s display of strength. Like monsters, they have a sensor that allows them to sense life-threatening danger. Facing something they would never kill, the weak would flee. It’s a natural law of nature.“That magic is not something a normal adventure could pull. I could sense lots of magic channeled earlier… Are you royalty?”“I wish, but I’m not…”Konoha replied, walking toward the corpse of a horned wolf.“But only royalties have that amount of magic. Perhaps Konoha is a child of royalty from a prostitute. That’s a possibility.”“I don’t want to think

The little girl named Lucy begs to have my help, but I have no confidence that I might be able to pull it off. One of the reasons is the fact that I have no idea what kind of illness her mother has. I could use healing to cover up wounds, but I never tried healing magic when I was cold. Which never happened, by the way.My desire to help this little girl is true. If my healing magic had no use for her mother. I could bring her to the nearest hospital instead.Behind me, Ren and Alicia were behaving themselves, following our path. I’m happy that Ren is sticking to his promise. He definitely changed a little.Time would come and he would surely forget about his vengeful heart. I’m such an angel for helping him.After half an hour of walking, we reached the small town. There are lots of people outside looking at the mountains.“This is my home.”Lucy said.“Lucy! Lucy!”A middle-aged man called her out and ran toward her.“Uncle!”Lucy turned with a big smiling face, but her uncle greete

Life is always important. Good or Evil... That is what I want to believe. I, Konoha travel previously killed countless people. I decided to value life more. It's been months since the last time I killed someone. I tried not to but she left me no choice.I still think about it sometimes. What is the possible way to save Audrey from her suffering? Why does innocent Shaymi need to die?The more I think about it, the more complicated it becomes. I try not to hate anyone. The concept of good and evil might be beyond me. Maybe it is beyond human understanding. Or maybe I'm an airhead who can't see the truth.Anyways, the lesson of the past remained. Even though I failed in sticking to my principle of not killing. I will continue to look for a way not to kill anyone as much as possible. It's the same way of thinking I want Ren to have.I put down my pen as I finished writing my Travelogue."Wait, something good happened earlier. Better put it too."I took my own again and wrote it down.Ren'
