Chapter 124 - Arriving in the capital. (1/2)

We were already traveling had 2 days so we have about 1 day to reach the capital. This time the merchant didn't rush us so we went at normal speed so it will take 3 days to get to the capital.

'Well, this was the right time.' Merchant has already made the horses suffer a lot but now that no bandits or monsters have attacked I think he's calmer.

We are also very happy because we also had no unforeseen during the trip back so far, On the trip to the city of Levent, we were attacked by bandits, but they only served to give us money.

Yes, while Sylphe and I knew nothing, Sheir and Lutrus looted all the bad guys and then shared the money with us. They could have had the money just for themselves, but they preferred to split the money so now I trust them a little more.

'Well, I was stupid not to take the bad guys' money or weapons.' Well, the bad guys were only using lousy swords so my sword is better than theirs, but I could sell them to some blacksmith and make some money.

Lutrus and Sheir just took the bandits' money and didn't do it, otherwise, we would have a lot more money now.

I have to be more aware of this, I can not forget to get the bad guys money, it can help me in the future.

I currently only have 1 gold and 3 silver coins, I wanted enough money to build a house, but just buying land in the capital costs more than 10 gold coins and that's very expensive.

If I had a house, I could live with Lily and Mary, well, until Lily got a place to live because I'd like to live alone with Mary when we get married.

I know I haven't proposed to her yet, but in a few months it's going to be her birthday and I want to give her a nice present.

I have a birthday just before Mary, so I'm going to be 14 years old first. We can only marry with 15 years, but I think it is better to make the request now.

'Well, there's still some time left.' I don't need to think about it now, what I need now is to pay attention to the trip.

#########

After a few hours of travel, we started to see the capital wall, it was very different from the Levent city wall, the wall here is much bigger and also seems firmer against attacks or things like that.

When we arrived at the gate we showed our guild card and we passed normally, the merchant also showing his card which was probably his merchant license and then the carriage entered the gate.

The guild was, as usual, full of drunk and sweaty guys, it's a recurring sight around here.
