Chances to Another Life 57. A New Task, Again.
"Adellia, are you crying again?" I said as I put my arm around her, also doing my best to prevent her from being seen by the refugees. She wiped away her tears and leaned against the stone wall. A gentle breeze played with her golden hair, and I leaned next to her as I looked at the castles in the noble district. "You haven't told your parents yet?" I asked Adellia quietly. "Not yet," she replied, her voice trembling with tears. "But, I can already guess Mother and Father's reaction. So, I don't want to face them while crying, they won't sympathize with that kind of thing," she continued. "It must have been really hard, huh? I feel guilty too. I'm sorry, Adellia," I said wholeheartedly. Adellia tightened her grip on her coat, to the point where I feared she might suddenly burst into hysterical tears. However, she then let out a strong sigh as she raised both hands into the air. "You don't need to apologize. It's me who should apologize to you, I was too selfish all this time. Jo
Chances to Another Life 58. Nothing Runs Smoothly!
I organized the supplies into bags while riding Peace to carry out the order to search for the missing military commander. It was already night and I had no idea where Cedric was, the king said, Cedric disappeared at the military headquarters three days ago and no one had seen him. Before actually leaving the palace, I took the time to look at the prison that connects to the dungeon. The execution ceremony will be held there, and only the royal family and the king's right-hand man are allowed to enter. I didn't know anything about this because I also didn't want to question Adellia, who had gone back to daydreaming after learning that Cedric was missing. Earlier, I saw her wearing a white robe while carrying a sword, entering the dungeon. I really hope nothing strange happens and I can find Cedric as soon as possible. The full moon hanging in the sky somehow didn't calm me down. "Don't look around too much, be alert and watchful." Sean admonished while riding his pegasus that flew
Chances to Another Life 59. What A Crazy Coincidence!
If even Pegasus, who was bigger and stronger than me, could be carried away by the vortex, how much more could I, who was so skinny! Before I could give thanks for not dying after falling from a height, this time I had to deal with a ferocious tornado. I almost got swept up in that whirlwind if I'd been a split second slow in using my strength. My feet firmly planted on the grassland, my body wavered several times as the tornado approached. I had a hard time opening my eyes because of the strong wind, fortunately this was a grassland so there were no buildings or trees that could have hit me to death. Slowly, I tried to open my eyes wide while thinking of a way out of this situation. Moreover, I also had to save those two Pegasus, I didn't want to have to look for wild pegasus to tame again. I didn't find Sean anywhere, until I thought maybe he was also sucked into the vortex. But then I realized that someone was gripping my hand so tightly that it felt like he was going to break
Chances to Another Life 60. Trying To Find A Way Out
"I don't know who you are, or to hell with your identity. I'll finish you right here." Delilah said in a restrained, threatening tone. I quickly tried to calm her down, somewhat scared too as her face showed extreme hostility. "Delilah, calm down. He's not an enemy!" I said quickly. Then Delilah unhesitatingly pointed her sword at my face. "I don't care, especially with the fact that he's a member of the Swaltz clan who led the massacre of my clan," she said through gritted teeth. Then, Sean raised his hands behind his head. He didn't laugh or chuckle, but his expression was so fierce that even I who saw it wanted to hit him with the hilt of my sword. "Sorry, yes. It was my ancestor who did it, after all, not me. So, your hatred is directed at the wrong person," Sean replied casually. Now I was seriously considering knocking him out with the sword, or telling Peace to jump him. His words automatically inflamed Delilah even more, her sword had already fallen to the ground. In bot
Chances to Another Life 61. I Volunteered To Go Underground, again.
The meadow shook as if it had been shaken by a large-scale earthquake. I hugged Peace's neck, who was feeling better and was whinnying frantically as the ground began to crack. In the midst of it all, Willem was concentrating on creating a fairly deep hole in an attempt for me to contact Sonya. As the soil and rocks began to fall and cause a landslide, a two-meter wide hole opened up. Delilah next to me held on tightly to me, while Sean watched from a distance because he didn't want to fall in. I managed to convince him to go along with my plan, after a bit of arguing and him calling me stupid. The ground fell further and further making me retreat slightly, Willem then turned around with a pale look and total exhaustion. "Is this enough? I don't think I can go any deeper due to lack of energy," he said while panting. "Okay!" I then took out the supplies from the bag, it was actually my supplies for the week, but I wanted to give it to my two skinny friends. The dragon scales were
Chances to Another Life 62. My Crawling Friend
Sean and Delilah would probably laugh at me if they heard me scream as soon as I saw the crawling figure. But, really, it reminded me of the horror movies I watched as a child. Then again, I was in a very risky position with only the rocks to hold on to. I was even sure that the figure's face and mine would be less than five centimeters away if he managed to get to me. To avoid that, I immediately climbed back up the hole in a panic. How unlucky I was because the ground around me was still rumbling as if it was ready to turn into a landslide in the next few seconds. No, no, I have to get out of here soon. The figure was still crawling at a normal speed, luckily it was not blessed with turbo speed. "Ow!" I reflexively shouted when the rock I was holding in my left hand came loose from the dirt wall. Now, I was dangling in the middle of the rumbling ground while trying to avoid the ghost. I tried to keep my flashlight from shining on the figure, but due to the narrow space, I could
Chances to Another Life 63. The Underground Way
"Don't step on me!" Sean exclaimed right in my ear causing me to wince in surprise. I then elbowed him in annoyance. Did he think he was the only one who had to duck and weave with four other humans and two pegasus? We were now underground and were walking through the holes made by Willem and Sonya. Willem used his earth power, and an elongated earth tunnel was instantly created along with the rumbling of the falling earth. Sonya, on the other hand, was simply ordering the young man around while holding a shovel that she seemed to have brought along just as a prop to decorate this trip. She walked leisurely behind Willem while humming, her fingernails and palms black, probably from clawing the ground when she met me earlier. She was holding Peace who thankfully didn't make a fuss. Behind Peace was Sean's pegasus who was calm unlike his owner. In the third row was Delilah, then me, and finally Sean who kept whining and cursing about his foot being stepped on, even though I didn't fe
Chances to Another Life 64. The Witches Sisters
I walked on tiptoe, deliberately avoiding the tombstones that were scattered as far as the eye could see so as not to get stepped on. If I'm usually amazed at the beautiful natural scenery, this time I'm amazed at how vast this cemetery is, especially since all the graves are so well preserved! Sonya led us at the front with nimble, dexterous steps through each of the closely spaced tombs. The pegasus were flying gently, and Peace was whinnying all the while, probably feeling the unpleasant air of being surrounded by a cemetery. "Well, you said you live in a village? But there's only one house here." Delilah chattered as she picked a path that had no gravestones, but in the end she just stepped on the stones because there were too many of them. "This is a village," Sonya said, pointing to the right with her eyes narrowed. "There you see, over there are the houses of my cousins. We're separated by this cemetery, but make no mistake, my house is always a fun gathering place!" she con
