Chapter 8 (1/2)

“Seriously?” I couldn’t stop my thoughts from being voiced out loud.

The big man made an awkward chuckle. “That is to say, you will receive a special reward.”

“Ah…” Well, say that stuff sooner!

I wasn’t really a greedy person, but I didn’t spend all day only a few dozen meters from a horde of zombies and cast spells until I nearly passed out for nothing!

The guy seemed to think my expression was funny, as he laughed again, slapping my back. “We’ll be tallying up the battle tonight, and the rewards will be distributed tomorrow during a town meeting. We need to discuss this attack and what to do next. Since you contributed greatly to this fight, please come.”

“Tomorrow, huh?”

I couldn’t help but make a bad face. After all, I just came to this world, and I was really penniless. I’d be spending a rough night on the street of an unfamiliar town in an unfamiliar world. The thought could hardly leave me satisfied.

“No place to stay, huh?” The guy said.

“A mind reader!” I cried out, shooting him a surprised look.

“No, it’s just that I had you looked into, and according to my sources you just arrived today and haven’t booked a spot at the inn.”

I gave an ugly look. For a guy who looked like a muscle head, he was very informed. In fact, it came off as a little intimidating that he already had me looked into. Well, he didn’t have all the facts straight. I appeared in the middle of the town square. Of course, no one wanted to look crazy, saying I appeared from nowhere, so I was a town stranger, not a world stranger.
