Following the conclusion of negotiations between Aamon and Juven, the two of them began the process of relocating to Jakal after a period of time had passed. They had the kind of intelligence that allowed them to steal the camels that those hunters owned. Due to the fact that Aamon and Juven had camels, it was not even necessary for them to be concerned about traveling all the way to Jakal.In the event that we take this ride, what is the approximate amount of time that it will take for us to arrive in Jakal?In addition, while Aamon was cautiously riding one of the two camelos that they had taken, he immediately inquired about the situation and pondered it. The very first time that he would ever ride one of these would be the very first time that he would ever ride one of these since he had arrived in this realm.Juven, who was pretty much accustomed to riding one, could not help but laugh when he saw Aamon in such a stiff condition while this was going on. He was able to do so becau
Jakal, was much deserted than Aamon had thought. Clean water was truly their problem that most of the people here would trade their items for a small price just so they could find a way to get a clean water.“How long has your family been living in this region again?” Aamon asked Juven as they both were walking towards Juven’s place.Since the camelos were not allowed to enter the local town, Juven and Aamon had to leave the camelos to Juven’s friend from the borders. “My family moved here after a war broke in Paranai.” Juven replied.“Paranai? Where is that?” Aamon asked. He was unsure since he hadn’t memorized the map of this alternate universe just yet. “How do you not know anything about Paranai?” Juven asked, there was confusion painted across his eyes as he couldn’t seem to believe that Aamon didn’t know about it. “How come you didn’t know about Paranai?”Aamon was a little unprepared that Juven would eventually come up asking him about it. He came up brushing his sideburn wit
Inside Joven’s home wasn’t as grand as Aamon expected it to be.As a matter of fact, the interior of the house was very small and shabby. Anyone could immediately tell from the inside that the house badly needed some repairing. Although it was actually deceitful from the external facade of the house knowing it was made of concrete. Other than that. Joven’s home in Jakal wasn’t really that safe for anyone to stay in.But looking at how Joven and his family seemed to have enjoyed each other’s company, it would seem that they have already overlook into the fact that they’re house look shabby.“I hope it’s not going to be a problem staying in this house.” A woman immediately asked Aamon the moment that the two of them were seated on a small wooden table that could only accommodate six people.It was very far from the long dining table that Aamon had back in reality. However, Aamon showed them some resp
“Ah, Pacholo!” Rustan greeted Joven’s father the moment he saw him entering the workshop alongside Aamon and Joven.On the other hand, Aamon was somewhat taken aback when he realized that the Rustan they were referring to was actually someone of the same age as both Joven and himself. Taking into consideration the appearance that Rustan possessed, it seemed as though he was somewhere in the early phase of his twenties.“How old is Rustan?” Aamon couldn’t help but finally ask Joven."Oh, I believe he’s about the same age as I.” Joven promptly replied. After receiving that confirmation from Joven, Aamon's earlier intuition was presented with a sudden answer. For some reason, Aamon was astonished by the fact that someone of their age could be so capable of making weaponry of this nature. “Who do we have here?” Rustan abruptly said the moment his eyes landed on Aamon.“Oh him,” Pacholo promptly turned aside to look back at Aamon and continued to say, “He’s Aamon. A new friend of Joven
An unexpected burst of laughter came from Rustan. “Are you seriously under the impression that I am a mage simply because I am able to hold your sword?” Following that, he inquired with a tone that was tinged with sarcasm.Eventually, Aamon, who was becoming even more skeptical, responded with the question, "Why? Doesn’t that seem to be the way it should be? I mean, this sword was also able to be held by you, right?”Aamon then pointed his sword.He eventually clarified his position by saying, "Oh my, I believe I may have caused some confusion to you but I am not a mage." Rustan, on the other hand, did nothing more than shake his head.But despite the fact that Rustan had established beyond a reasonable doubt that he was not a mage, Aamon
After what seemed to be an unexpected end of conversation with Rustan, Aamon and the others went back home to Joven’s home.Night crawls soon enough and the whole village seemed to be consumed by the calm silence of the folksmen soundly asleep in their respective abode.Meanwhile, Aamon was still up and fully awake thinking about what Rustan told him earlier today. It caused him to feel that way knowing that he was perplexed whether Rustan could be trying to deceive him by luring him in a trap.However, if that were the case, Joven would simply intercept and alarm Aamon about it. However, the fact that Joven nor Pacholo didn’t even react meant that Rustan was indeed telling Aamon nothing but the truth.It was causing Aamon to feel bothered, specially at the fact that it could caused him his life as some sort of sacrifice.*FLASHBACK EARLIER*“Why? Are you having cold feet now?” Rustan promptly asked the moment that he saw Aamon become silent for a moment.Aamon didn’t want to let Rust
What Aamon didn’t seem to notice was that Joven was also unable to sleep that night. Just like Aamon, Joven was thinking about the thing that Rustan told them earlier today.It was something that Joven found it hard to imagine that Aamon would decide to do. Joven understood that knowing Aamon, he would rather risk himself than to drag a hundred civilians for his sake.Besides, Joven knew that Aamon was the type of person who always risked entering into danger as though it was his own kind of playground.At the very least, he just still couldn’t take away the concern from his friend especially seeing how even Aamon seemed to be bothered from what he heard.And as Joven was about to che
THE FOLLOWING DAY.The horns consecutively echoed back and forth across the region of Jakal. It was too loud, particularly within Joven’s small town. Their village apparently was the central core of the city, and with that, everyone who was staying in that particular village would easily wake up with that morning call.Except for Aamon.He went to bed quite late last night that he actually overslept. Much worse was that today was the schedule of their hunt for the Hoxfur beast. Without him around, the search would be impossible to accomplish.The echoes of the horn came numerous times in the attempt to call upon Aamon. Even the villagers were beginning to wonder what could be wrong wi
