17 Chapter 17: Yozzalera Kingdom And Loris Inn (1/2)
Once he pa.s.sed the guard he kept walking while looking around, it was his first time seeing people in this world, and he saw that their clothes are just like what people wore in the past in his old world. They were walking in the tunnel behind the iron gate. He guessed they must be in some sort of fortress. And he was right.
Occasionally he would see warriors or magicians, wearing their armors and robes. They carried weapons normally so he did too. He even found some hiding their faces just like him. Half an hour later they were out and he got a look at the ma.s.sive fortress built beside the even more ma.s.sive wall.
Then he turned his eyes to other people.
They were all either finding caravans to ride to reach the nearest city or just started running in it's direction.
For now he didn't want to run in when he doesn't know the map. So he went to a caravan and joined them with a fee of 5 Golden coins. Normally he guessed they would ask him to defend the caravan along with the others, but now they were beyond the wall there wouldn't be any need to.

He went to another warrior near him, and asked him.
”Hey, can you tell me how much time it will take until we reach the city, it's my first time setting out of my village” Ned asked.
”Hey there, yes sure, it would take about two days and a half. My name is Jeff, what's your name kid, you look pretty strong for a newbie warrior, did you train at a young age?” the warrior replied to him like they were friends since they were kids. He looked at Ned curiously as he saw that he had a strong build.
Ned once he heard his name was relieved as he didn't want to change his name, and from the man's name he knew that similar names at least existed. ”Oh yeah sorry I forgot to introduce myself. Name's Ned, and yeah I did train with my father since a young age” he lied through his teeth in one second.
”oh. Then you probably are wandering about how the kingdom is right? The first city and the one we are going to is named Wrester, when we reach it you should hit the library and read your fill”. He then stopped for a couple seconds, giving Ned time to process things.
”Second thing to do is go join a guild, to be able to take missions and earn gold for your livelihood. We warriors join the same guild when we are just beginners but once becoming experts, we join either the swordsman guild or the rogue. Myself am a rank 4 expert swordsman” he said and had face full of pride as he took a silver card with the name Jeff on it. On the back it had a sword half sheathed.
Ned said with a faked admiration tone ”Wow I didn't know you are this awesome sir” he was playing the young boy coming from the rural village role after all. It wouldn't do to tell him that he can match him in strength and possibly even trash him.
”No need just call me Jeff, if you want to join the swordsman guild in the future just come look for me there.” He told him with a smile. Then added ”I was on a mission outside and I'm exhausted, so I'll take a nap, talk to you later” and he lied back immediately after.
Leaving Ned to his own thinking. He started making plans for when he reaches the city.
