Chapter 24 - Fanged Boar (1/2)
I had always liked Wilfred. He reminded me of my father a lot.
He also had this calmness about him that made you think, as long as you trusted him everything would work out. His appearance hadn't changed in these ten years either, I couldn't guess what his real age must be.
Thinking about my father I was deep in thought. I hadn't seen him for ten years I didn't know how he was doing.
As if Wilfred could read my mind he put his hand on my shoulder.
”You're fathers condition hasn't worsened. Your mother is looking after him well, I made sure to check with one of the knights before coming here.”
I began to smile
”Thank you”
”How did you recognize us two, we've changed a lot over these ten years?” Gary asked.
”The blonde boy and red hair who fought the Drop bears, how could I forget something like that. I'm not that old yet.”
”How old are you?” Gary started to look Wilfred up and down seeing that his appearance hadn't changed in ten years.
”Now that is a secret, my friend.”
The three of us started to laugh out loud. Seeing this scene the other students around us started whispering to each other.
”Isn't that master Wilfred?”
”How are they on such good terms with him”
”They must from a powerful family”
Wilfred hearing the students around us talk, decided to quickly say goodbye and leave us be.
Forward came a man who didn't look too much older than us, but had a big powerfull body and was bearing the Avrion Crest. He held a sheet of paper in his hand.
”To Future Avrion academy students, I am squire master Lancy. You must obey my commands at all times unless someone of higher rank intervenes. It is time for us to journey onwards towards Avrion Academy to journey will take about seven days”
Behind him, five carriages had appeared, each carriage could hold around ten students. The students had boarded the carriages while the knights travelled by horse. There were six knights in total including master Wilfred. The squire master was the second-highest-ranking official there, while the other knights were regular squires who were assigned to guard each carriage.
