Chapter 64 - After the attack (1/2)
It's morning, the four of us (Jacks, Rean, Elise and I) formed a temporary group last night to ward off those pesky ghost monsters. While Jacks and I still have much energy left, the same can't be said for Rean and Elise, they're extremely tired right now
”You guys must be tired, it's morning now and those monsters won't come out. Since Alice's inn nearby, I will rent you a room so that you can rest” [Ash]
”No, it's alright. I think it's better for us to go back to mansion” [Rean]
”Agree, we can still walk” [Elise]
They said that but looking at their state right now
...
”Jacks, I'll send them to the inn first, so can I request you to report what we have been doing last night to guild master” [Ash]
”Will do” [Samurai Jacks]
”Thanks” [Ash]
”No problem, still I must say I'm impressed. Based on the watcher, you just fought a group of A rank monster inside the dungeon, exit the dungeon through the bus golem that run on your mana and then joined us to fight those ghosts monsters, just what is your secret to be this strong?” [Samurai Jacks]
”Let just said I met some good teachers” [Ash]
Technically speaking, Goddess Achalasia and God of death blessed me with their blessings and knowledge, so in a way, I'm not lying when I am referring them as my teachers
With that, the three of us headed towards the inn. Along the way
”Lee...”
”Just what happen...”
”Is this, a sign of devil invasion?”
”Same thing happened in Malsia right? Is this their doing?”
”My child. Did anyone see my child?”
Last night is a total havoc, I do run around and use an enhancement magic as well as flight magic to cover as much area as possible (and thus leaving Jacks to watch Rean and Elise. Well, watching them is not a good word here, the two of them did provide a much needed support to Jacks) but I couldn't cover them all. It's regrettable but what could I do
”Morning, is everything alright here?” [Ash]
”Ash, Rean, and Elise!” [Alice]
”What are you guys doing here?” [Alice's mom]
”Well, how about you come inside first” [Alice's dad]
Looks like everything fine on their end. Thank goodness. As I explained my intention of renting a room for Rean and Elise
”No need to pay and we will include breakfast and lunch for them” [Alice's dad]
”I can't do that” [Ash]
”Don't worry, you did save Alice back then, think of it as a way to repay you. Plus, having them here is like having a grandchild with us” [Alice's mom]
”Agree” [Alice's dad]
”MOM! DAD!” [Alice]
””Hehehe...”” [Rean, Elise]
We have our breakfast in the inn as I told them about (especially Alice) the type of monsters we encountered yesterday. Alice ask me to follow her afterward to discuss this thing further with Ram. While I do agree, I ask her to go ahead first as I need to check on the mansion. She agreed. Last thing, I also told the innkeeper as well as Rean and Elise I'll be taking them around afternoon so that they wouldn't need to take the carriage.
”You're such a sweet big brother to them” [Alice's mom]
”Agree” [Alice]
After making sure Rean and Elise get their much needed rest, I used my flight magic and flew to the mansion. I need to check on Claude's condition first thing first as well as the other. Still, my mana is depleting as my control of this spell is still below average as well as the fact that I have been fighting non-stop last night, so I might arrive a bit late than what I calculated, nevertheless, it's still faster than dashing around
