225 Old Friend (1/2)

-Order of Light, Path to Green Leaf Village-

We were able to leave the city once again without any problems but I can tell that from the very start, some scouts are already following us. They didn't enter the Tavern though so it's probably off limits to them.

Not that long since we left the city and I can still feel that we are being followed.

”Hey Sea Lion, are we still far?” Osia asked. We used the South path leading to the Green Leaf Village.

”Don't worry. That old friend will come to us but for now... let's use this path.” We entered a place where there's a lot of trees, not as thick as the forest but I think this is near the lake where they found the bloody water.

I made eye contact with Beat and I think he understood what I meant. He signaled something to the ... I should ask for their names again. After that, both of them moved the other way while we are walking.

After a while... we heard sword clash not that far. We rushed towards the area and...

”Hey, we got the scouts. What do you want me to do with them?” Beat and Kaita got them. There are three scouts who are down but probably not dead yet.

”Let's tie them up for now and leave them here. It's not good that someone is following us around. Are they awake?” I asked.

”I don't think so. I knocked them down pretty hard.” Beat answered.

”Good job. Let's go and find the guy we're looking for.” We started moving on again.

-Deep South West Forest of Green Leaf Village, Near Lake-

After minutes of walking, I've felt another group of people nearby and I think we've found what we're looking for.

”Miss Chara...” Beat tried to warn me but I just shove my hand to tell him to not talk.

”Hey hey hey! You bunch got losht? I'm the guard here and if you want to passh, you need to pay 10 gold each.” I knew it was him.

”Hey, there, Two Teeth. It's been a while!” I removed my cloak that hiding my face.

”Wait... it'sh you shucker!” I think he said sucker but...

”Oh... you don't have to be so hostile. We're here to ask you for a job.” And I just smiled at him.

”You shuckersh think you can afford my shervich? You're making me laugh!” He replied and smirked at us.

”Pfffft...” Suddenly Osia giggled showing with disrespect... Probably because of how Two Teeth talks.

”Are you laughing at me?! Boysh kills those shuckersh!” Just stop saying shuckers... it sounds like shockers...

”Boss... are you really sure? This girl is stronger than all of us for sure. We watched the recent battle right?” One of his lackeys said.

”Then why do you think they want our shervich? They probably need our shtrong forche!” Two teeth...

”I seriously doubt that, Boss. But I'm pretty sure they're not here for our strong force that you are talking about.” Where on earth did he even get this person to come with him?

”Your friend there is right. We're here for your knowledge... of some sort. It's not that hard. We just need you to accompany us somewhere you're really familiar with and then we'll pay you after we find the thing we are trying to find.”

”What plache are we talking about? It dependsh, of courshe.” Now he's being rational. Good, good.

”Well, we are talking about Order of Light's Dungeon.” I answered. His face expression started to change.

”I knew it! You shuckersh are here to shell me out for gold!” There he goes again.

”Now, now... you're...” Then he rushed towards me!

Beat showed up and tried to stop Two Teeth... with his power, I guess he can...

*BAAAAAAAM!* So fast! Two Teeth unleashed a strong attack to Beat! He was able to block it but he got pushed back and staggered!

Now he's trying to get me. He did get faster and stronger from the last time I saw him but this is not going to work against me.
