Chapter 306 - Pregnancy Symptoms (1) (2/2)
”It is safe outside, correct?” I asked.
”Yes.” Regaleon nodded. ”I have swept the area clean of any pests.” He grinned and I giggled.
”Then can we take a walk outside?” I asked. ”I need to burn some of the food we just ate.”
I had eaten more than the ordinary servings I usually finish. I guess the saying that pregnant women are eating for two.
”Of course.” Regaleon replied. ”Come, let us go.”
Regaleon and I walked hand in hand. We descended from the second floor of the inn and have gone outside. The area was quite noisy, with people buzzing around. The villagers were also around together with our men.
”Look, it is the young master.”
”Yes, he is the one that helped us.”
”Thank you, young master for saving us.”
”Please accept our humble gift as thanks.”
The villagers swarmed around us in an instant. They are offering food, drinks, and travel necessities. I was quite surprised with their warm feelings.
”This must be the young master's wife.”
”They are quite the good looking couple.”
”Young madam, please accept this as a humble thanks from us. It is not much, but it will keep you warm on the road.”
An old lady wrapped me with such a beautiful scarf. The cloth was so smooth that I liked the feeling of it.
”Now, now, please do not swarm around our young master.” Chris was quick to approach with a few of the men. They gently pushed away the villagers that were giving their thanks.
”I am happy to accept this as a token of your appreciation.” I replied hastily to the old woman.
I felt that Regaleon and I were being ushered away towards a less crowded area.
”Sorry for that. Were you startled?” Regaleon asked in a worried tone.
”No, I am fine.” I smiled as reply.
We walked around the village streets that was quiet. The stars were shining brightly in the night sky. While Regaleon and I were walking hand in hand, I saw Brad from a distance.
”Brad.” I called out to him.
”Your majesties.” Brad had a broad smile after seeing us. His smile reminded me of Jack's carefree smile. They were similar to one another.
”Did you get a good nap?” Brad asked with a joyful tone.
”Yes, and to think all of that happened when I was still asleep.” I said. Brad and I both giggled.
After some chatting with Brad and laughing with his stories, he now changed into a more serious face and looked at Regaleon.
”Um, your majesty.” Brand said with a respectful tone. ”May I ask something?”
”Of course.” Regaleon replied. Brad might have made a good impression on Regaleon in the fight against the bandits.
”Me and my men would like to serve as your escort in your journey.” Brad said solemnly and bowed. ”Of course, it is free of charge. Now that the notorious bandits have been annihilated, we have some free time on our hands.”
Regaleon was silent for a few second and then replied. ”I will be happy to accept your offer. Having a few additional hands is quite a welcome.”
Brad looked up with a wide smile on his face. ”Thank you, your majesty. Thank you very much. It is such an honor to serve you.”
”Then I will be counting on you.” Regaleon extended his hand for a handshake.
”Yes, of course.” Brad took and they shook hands.
I was happy to see that Regaleon has gained another loyal person to be by his side.
