CHAPTER 4

4th scenario-

A week later. Amethis introduces the “client” that she

mentioned previously to the guild members. The “client” has Yellow hair and

ocean eyes. She is not the belle of the balls. But she doesn’t seem ugly

either. She rather seems unique somehow. She gives off a noble and gentle aura.

But there’s something off or strange about her. She seems mysterious. She

doesn’t seem to be that old either. She looks around 25 years old. Amethis

introduces her to the members as “Lyrica”. “She is without a doubt a noble

lady” says Seira after she gets out of sight with Amethis.

-“I also bet!” says Fin almost immediately. “I mean just

look at the way she talks and behaves.”

-“Even her walking resembles that of a noble. I wonder what

is a noble daughter like her doing here in a shabby place” says Seira.

-“Who knows if we have to wash her clothes or feed her” says

Fin ironically.

-“Heh! Maybe she is wrinkling her nose and washing her hands

after talking to us in disgust” says Seira ridiculing.

-“That’s enough of you two. You can’t just judge someone at

the first glance. And the way you are talking baseless things about her behind

her back is impolite and immoral” says David sternly (righteous David to the

rescue(; ).

-“Mr. David is right, little Seira and Fin. You shouldn’t

talk like that about her considering the fact that Amethis has chose her

herself. So, we also must trust her since we will be spending most of the times

with her from now on” says Eve from behind. “But there’s something off about

her. She is definitely hiding something although I can’t put my finger in it.”

She mutters thoughtfully.

After

a day, they left off for their journey or rather adventure at dawn. It was a

bright day with clear sky and comfortable atmosphere when they arrived at

district-3 from their district-8. They decide to spend the night in an inn from

that district.

-“Is

it really ‘that’ Gordobac?!” Fin almost shouts in amazement. “I have always

wanted to come here at least once.”

-“Yes,

it sure is different from all the other village inns you see out there” says

David inspecting the inn from outside.

-“But

isn’t that too costly, Amethis?” asks Eve with a weary look.

-“Well,

we can’t just have our noble client stay in the dirty and unsafe places. Also

we can cost much more than that. You know that more well than anyone else, Eve”

replies Amethis.

-“Master,

can’t we just enter already?” asks Seira with curious and enthusiastic tone as

she stands before the inn door with her hands on the door-knob. Amethis smiles

slightly at her behavior and says, “Yes, we can.” Soon they book three rooms

for them to stay the night

-“Ugh!

It’s not fair. How come that mere stranger get to share a room with master when

I couldn’t in all my 19 year of life?” grunts Seira.

-“It’s

because she is not a mere stranger. She is our precious client. And it’s one of

the part of the deal that one of us always have to stay with her to protect

her” replies Eve. Seira huffs.
