Chapter 156 (1/2)
Benjamin had a peaceful three days in the Town of Crewe
He spentin these past three days He hasn’t been practicing es The rush from the escape, the rift in the space of Consciousness there were just tooto his lack of meditation Finally, now he has the chance to catch up with his homework
Of course he did not spend all his ti He was not out of the woods yet as he was still within the borders of the Kingdom and could still be arrested by the Church Therefore, he also spent ti further into the Crusader Gateway
The tavern was the best place to obtain the latest information He could just sit beside and eavesdrop or share a pint or tith other parties and he could easily find a lot of information he required
He has ateway, the cook, the military supply officer, the cleaners and the craftsateway Benjah for hiateway
He also ed to find out about the back-up crosses
He heard from a half drunk uards at the gateway held, there was another fifty crosses kept in a storage deep within the gate The key of the storage was in the hands of the military supply officer and as he spoke of this, he even took out and dangled the key like a kid showing off his new toy He was obviously drunk If it weren’t because of the crowd, Benjaht there and then
Benjaood opportunity As the ered drunkardly out of the tavern, he immediately followed He was prepared to snatch the key when the officer reaches an empty street
To his dismay that once the officer stepped out of the tavern, he immediately collapsed and cause such a co hand”, two kind hearted civilians had already helped the poor fellow up and towards the gate
Benjamin could explode at the scene He missed such a perfect opportunity Those tere already up and about carrying him and he was quite a bit of a distance away due to precaution’s sake He wouldn’t be able carry out his plan in time even if he wanted to
He could only comfort himself that the officer seemed to be a drunkard and would always be at the tavern Although he missed his opportunity now, he could wait for the next That being said, when he returned to the tavern, the bartender told him that the officer never drank at the tavern and this was a surprising first The officer would probably not return the second tiret
Sigh He could only figure out another way to obtain the key
Well, every cloud has a silver lining At least he found out about the back-up crosses and where they were kept He also knehere to obtain the key The next he could do was to dig deeper into the internal inforateway and an opportunity to sneak in
The best case scenario would be as told by the lady boss of the textile shop when the people at the gates are out getting supplies Benjamin could then hide in one of the dry food sacks and sneak into the gate to steal the crosses
And just like that he ates, three days went by quickly
On theof the fourth day, his peaceful life was interrupted It wasn’t anythat interrupted his peace but rather the se party that laid hidden within the Town of Crewe called for a
After the previous ic class, Benjaroup of people
Therefore, he decided to stop his
Benjamin used the secret pathway to reach the hidden baseain He realized that this time, the expression on everybody’s face was different There were people gathered together and having full on discussions about the practice of ic Their cheeks flushed red once they were at the heat of their discussions
— It was different frohbours in a market place
Benjah of satisfaction by this turnout

”Teacher Benjaht Sir Benjamin, you have arrived!”
”The technique is extreood technique?”
”Sir Benja meditation, I really need to seek your advice”
