Chapter 88 Unwanted sleepover. (1/2)

Roland’s journey back up was mostly uneventful The monsters at the lower levels were far too weak and his new ‘partner’ was actually being helpful Anyood at pointing out which monster parts would sell for the most coins

There was only one downside to this as it took hi him to hurry it up When the two survivors were out it was already late at night The adventurer’s guild wasn’t so at about 10 pm It seemed that he would have to return toest proble hie submissive look on his face whenever Roland looked his way Whenever he praised hi him some valuable market information or about the monster parts he seemed ecstatic It was as if the man had never been validated in his life before

But now they were out of the dungeon he could just uy on the next day There wasn’t really a need to have the half-dwarf testify with hi it for peace of ht have wished to knohat happened to their dead relatives

Roland was unfamiliar with them so the explanation would be left up to the half-dwarf There was also the info about the rare gole for This and hih the silver rank quest if his new friend confiruess I’ll see you at the adventurer’s guild to Sir Wayland!”

“Stop callingas they passed the dungeon guards They wouldn’t really care about the report as that wasn’t their part of the job They were only there to keep untrained people with no adventurer cards froeon below

His house was between the dungeon and the city of Albrook It took hiet there froet to town The walk directly from the city took about forty minutes, his house wasn’t directly between the two landmarks

So it was time to head back The path towards his home split off from the main road which made his bike a bit hard to use This tier spatial bag that was one down into the dungeon thinking that he would only need to defeat a couple of tier 2 monsters

Without his bike, he would need to make the walk back home the old fashi+oned way Roland was able to test his new armor extensively and it worked a lot better than he expected There was a bit of a lag between the runic spells activations which he would need to work on Other than that his et to test out so to save up on charges

‘If I can lower the size of these wands further, auntlet or vaic tools…’

This was one of the ideas that he thought up while fighting with this ar thehis s up further If he n even further he could start adding small rods or plates with disposable runic structures Maybe even add a holster for disposable runic scrolls for one-tin theht he could just pop a used-up plate out and insert a new one There wouldn’t even be a need to make these ammunition type spells from better metals, he could use plain steels that would hold a couple of charges

‘This would be good for nificantly…’

Roland alking towards his house while Bernir was behind hiiven up on it after Roland started thinking about in In reality, this wasn’t why Bernir was being quiet, he started to slowly fall behind while walking At first, he thought that the half-das just going his oay but then he heard a thud sound behind hi around to see what the noise was about He could then see Bernir face planted on the ground with the large backpack covering most of his body

“Hey, Bernie… are you okay?”

He called out but after a moment of silence, it was clear that his new acquaintance was far from it

Rolandht as he used his identification skill on hi With the new levels in this skill and after it advanced to the higher tier he was now able to see people's MP and SP nulance, that Bernir had no stamina points left He had re the whole journey back fro stubborn?”

Why did this guy not tell hiht have been afraid that he would be left alone to fend for hih The reason wasn’t really important, now Roland had another problem on his hands

‘I… I can’t just leave hiet to him I don’t have any stamina potions either’

Bernir passed out after they walked for 15 eon location They were still close to theto the city but it was very late Other adventurershalf-dwarf but that didn’t mean that they would help hi out in these lands, the forests were dense in these parts so some of them hid there He even ran into some low level creatures from time to time but they mostly fled from people above their level like him They would certainly not flee froh

‘Do I need to carry hith to carry this guy around and the backpack with no proble to the city like that would take some time His own house on the other hand was fifteento do would be to take hiht But then Roland’s trust issues sprung into action once more which made him question that option

‘Well… I could dump him into my shed … don’t think he will steal any of those old tools froh so towards his own house He didn’t need to allow hiood option Thanks to this being a volcanic area the weather ar in a tool shed The same shed that he used as a du the half-dith hi him over his shoulder but there was still the backpack that would be in the way He wound up putting it on his back while carrying Bernir in his hands in the front The e backpack Roland was sure to check if it didn’t shatter during the fall and it was just fine

‘I picked up quite the ugly princess…’

Roland groaned inwardly while walking forward The youngwasn’t the prettiest and also needed a bath after what happened in that dungeon Though he wasn’t sure if this was just Bernir natural fragrance He was in the minority of the common people that washed themselves every day Not everyone could fashi+on theical water

Finally after about fifteen hts but he had a night vision rune inscribed in his helh the round

Roland s He had an old straw mattress that he didn’t use at all as later he fashi+oned a large bed for himself with a softer finish He fetched a blanket that he carried with the straw bed to his log shed

‘I think I’ll just burn it after this guy is gone…’

He placed the s and placed the blanket over hiive and didn’t want to have that unkeood pillows either

The shed that he was using as a backup plan for thieves looked a bit dusty and unkempt He didn’t really like to clean it and only worked there to es for doors It had been visited by some intruders before but they didn’t really take much as all these tools were of low quality

‘That should be it… norood six to eight hours, I’ll check upon hi’
