101 Pretend you didnt see anything. (1/2)

The carriages started to move about. Just at this moment, Ozul sensed something peculiar.

It was the same feeling of unrest that he gets from coming into contact with bright light. However, it was more than just a bright light.

To find the source of this emotion, Ozul looked around only to see the carriage engraved with magical runes passing right by him.

Though it was a faint, Ozul remembered that he had the same feeling when looking at the girl that he had seen just the other day.

He wasn't able to probe inside the carriage, but Ozul was sure that the one sitting inside was somehow related to that girl. She could be very well sitting inside herself.

No matter how interesting it was to guess who sat inside the carriage, Ozul got past that curiosity only after a few moments.

Although he forgot about that matter under a few seconds, someone else couldn't.

Inside the carriage, there was a whole different scene.

”Oh my god! Oh my god! It's him, Venessa!”

A person from the outside could not see through the window, but Clara could easily see through from inside.

Though she couldn't see Ozul's face because of the samurai hat on his head, it wasn't hard for her to recognize him. Not when she had dreamt of him so many times already.

”It may not necessarily be him, Young Miss.”- Venessa tried to calm her down.

There was enough space in the carriage for a couple of more people, but only Clara and Venessa sat in this middle one.

”But I know it is him! See, he has those two people behind him too!”

”Young Miss, even if it is him, you have to calm down. How can you lose your cool just because of a man?”- Venessa tried to reason with Clara.

Their voice couldn't be heard outside as there were a lot of runes not only protecting the carriage, but also helping them to keep their privacy.

”But Venessa! He is here! What should I do?! I still have to thank him for saving me!”- Clara said, trying to convince her caretaker to let her off the carriage.

”Young Miss! We are just about to leave. It will be troublesome when others see you get off the carriage only to talk with that man.”

Venessa explained to Clara. But when she saw Clara's downcast face, she added;

”Moreover, from the looks of it, that man is one of the hired Mercenary. You will have many chances to thank him during the journey.”

Clara's face brightened up when she realized that the man would be around her during the whole journey, which may even take some months.

Thinking of how there would be many chances that she would be able to talk with him, Clara started to daydream again.

When Venessa noticed this, she shook her head and sighed in defeat. She did not understand what that guy had done to their young miss.

'Did he just look at me?! But how?! That shouldn't be possible because not only the glass is made that way, even the runes are set up!'- Venessa thought and hurriedly pulled the curtains.

'No, it must be a coincidence. It must be...'

Back to Ozul, though he wasn't able to probe inside the carriage, feeling the emotions was a whole different matter.

He was going to ignore those bright emotions directed towards them, which had already informed him about who was really inside. However, just at this moment, the negative feelings came rushing in from inside the carriage too!

He turned toward the carriage, but again, couldn't see anything through that single window.
