I was feeling a little melancholy as I took my things and left. I had already spoken to the receptionist and explained that I would be leaving soon. So I didn't have to explain anything to her. As I walked out into the street, I felt that suffocating heat that was starting to set in early in the morning. I decided to walk faster to get to the outskirts of the city of mud and stone.The wound I had on my shoulder no longer hurt. It had healed completely and the scar was no longer noticeable. I only hoped that I would not suffer a similar wound again, it was very annoying. As I walked I saw that other adventurers were also leaving this city, but as we were all somewhat distant no one spoke. We only participated in the missions in silence, perhaps because of the rivalry to stand out more. Unlike all of them, I had no armor, and that was one of my weaknesses. From now on I had to look for a suitable one so that I could be calmer and not receive so many wounds in my body.While I was thin
The floats started off at high speed, none of them wanted to be involved in what had happened. Apparently they knew who were the people who were doing this and did not want to talk out of fear. I just wanted to get out of this place as fast as possible and avoid this problem that no one seemed to want to solve. I thought Krabbe was dangerous, but the surrounding villages were worse, as if there was no law and order. Everyone was silent about what was happening.As I thought about what was happening. I felt very strange as if the horses were very scared, because of the attitude of the coachmen. I got a little scared, but as we moved forward little by little everyone calmed down. It was for the best because this could end badly if the carriages collided. Everything was left in the hands of the coachmen's control.[...]I got out of that oppressive heat two days later, so I took another coach because the man was not going to take me to my destination and he looked very scared because of
Because of Alfred's attitude, we had to leave the place so that no one would hear us. He was very angry with me and I could not explain anything well. We went up to the second floor of the guild on a kind of balcony where there were many war decorations, although they seemed to be trophies.There was a wooden table where the three of us sat.-So what are you going to do from now on?-I'm just going to do another mission.-You've got a lot of nerve.-Alfred, please control yourself. You're just an adventurer. Now that the guild of another city gave you a position. You think you're the defender of justice?-Yes, at least they gave me a position, unlike you who don't help me at all.The brothers began to fight as if nothing, they didn't care about my presence.-It's all right. Alfred if you are so worried about what Gabriel does, then go to him....ah...but, he changed his name, you can't call him that. I think it's Isaac, if that suits him.I hadn't even given myself a new name because o
After a while I was already changed, I quickly left the place. I started to walk around the shopping area, trying to buy clothes and ask about what was going on in this place. I saw the right person to start a conversation. There was a man with a cart selling fruit. He was someone of age, with quite a bit of short gray hair, black eyes, somewhat tall, and wearing a gray robe. I approached him.-Hello, how much are the apples worth?-Two for three coins," he answered.-Give me four.He put them in a cloth bag and handed them to me. I gave him several six coins. There I began to talk to him about what was going on in this place.-Are there people who hate kings?-Yes, their laws have brought nothing but trouble. They take men away to fight their wars. No one can do anything against what they order, I was saved by my age and because I was already in their ranks and lost a foot. I feel sorry for what they did to a country. They finished them all off without mercy. I tried to stay calm w
The next day, just as I had predicted the night before, it snowed all night long. I looked at the city from my window and I could see a white blanket covering all the houses and buildings in the city. It was not sunny like the day before. Everything looked very dark, and a strong storm was approaching. So I decided to go out, I didn't want to wear that armor but I didn't want to be asked my level all the time, because thanks to it everyone identified me as a hero or an adventurer. I left my room and also took my sword, as things were at that moment, the best thing to do was to prepare myself for everything. Creatures could come out from everywhere and attack me.[...]When I left the lodging I noticed that in spite of the cold day. The people of this place went out to work and do their chores as if nothing happened. Everyone was very calm as if nothing had happened and soon after I knew why. The army of this country had arrived via many men in that place, I noticed that no one tri
When I arrived at the dungeon, it looked like it had gotten bigger, and part of the camp had disappeared.Some people chose to stay away from there for fear that something would come out. I walked over there with my sword in my hand. It was likely that something was going to appear at any moment I had already seen something similar in the city of Krabbe, and I knew what would probably come out would be all and challenging for the people who were here.From where I was I could see what something white was moving in the dungeon, it was the size of a human and I could see those glowing red eyes. Everything was evident when it took the first step out of the place. I was very surprised when I saw it. It was a beast that walked on two legs. Something I had heard in myths, a snowman, who carried human weapons, perhaps he took them from the people who entered several days ago.The nearest adventurers went to fight with them, at first they were able to defeat several of these creatures with t
The three of us met at a restaurant to talk about what had happened. I still didn't believe anything, Alfred didn't either, we were both too confused. That man who for us was a hermit was someone very strong and a bit crazy sometimes. His behavior left us a lot to think about. We tried to act as if nothing had happened, but we were all reminded of the reality we were living. However, he began to speak.-Well I introduce myself, I'm half dwarf, that's why I'm so strong and tough, although to most people I'm a human. His words at least made it clear to us why he was so strong, but it was very strange that he dressed that way. Alfred didn't keep quiet and asked him about it.-So why do you dress like that?-Well...I lost my family a long time ago and hid in a forest for a few years, but trouble followed me and I had to come back to be a hero. It never ends.-When was that?" Alfred asked.-Nine years ago that happened, and I was alone in a forest. Living away from everyone and sleeping
I left that area and the hermit went to another place. He wouldn't help me on what was going to be, he just gave me that dagger for me to decide what to do with it, when I saw that man face to face.I returned to the dungeon and just as the hermit had said, chaos was about to break out in the city. The heroes who fought all night were very tired. I could only see thousands of monster bodies on the ground. I saw a kind of barrier in the dungeon that contained the monsters trying to get out of there. Some of them were manticores.The elves guarding the entrance of the place. They were also tired of making barriers for those creatures to get out of there. I saw a group of armed adventurers. Maybe they wanted to go in there and explore the place together with the group of hero number 3. It was one of the alternatives they had to finish this mission, it was very risky, but I had no opinion. I just sat down on one of the tree trunks and brushed the snow off me.I waited for them to open t
