My Dear Lady Boss

Chapter 35 - Iron Bear (Seventh Part)

That night is quieter than usual as there is no longer murmured from William. Nacorn, Benak, and Carone would occasionally take a turn to take care of William since he had lost consciousness. At first, they had planned to leave the Amarilla forest, but since they had lost their way now when they escaped from the entourage of the spirit in the previous campsite. As for the unusual environment of their current location, it is without a double that the fog is heavier than most of the places that they had visited previously, even during high noontime the fog is really heavy here. So, every high noontime Nacorn, Benak, and Carone would take the turn to find a way to leave their current location. They had left the mark on the trees every five-step, yet it seems they were walking in a circle. Because the starting place of the mark is next to their current camp, however, they always return to the starting points of the mark.

------------

A white puppy suddenly appears beside William's side. The fur on her body is ethereal white, it is a kind of abstract white snow that almost impossible to exist in this world. If not because of the bloodshot red eyes, Carone will believe this is a harmless little spirit beast. Rosy's yawn for a bit before waving at Carone with her little paw, and blink her bloodshot red eyes to him.

'Where did this little spirit beast come from? How can there be such beautiful spirit beast exist in this world...' Carone suddenly feels exhausted as he wants to rest. Without being able to think any further, he already peacefully falls asleep.

------------

Not long after William left the Sun city, there are many major events occurred. The new establishment of Coba and Kalle clan that both of them joined together which is called Fruitful yard where you can buy anything from weapons, medicines, poisons, and slave trading also existed from time to time. This is only a piece of inefficient news, not long after the establishment of Fruitful yard, there is a century breaking news that is hard to believe without seeing the real thing personally. Right now, it is even harder just to queue to buy it with the line of people all over to the gate of the city. Sometimes you need to wait at least three days in line just to be able to buy it. Even the city lord daughter who is spoiled mostly by both of her bigger brother and father still manages to send her brother to queue in line for it. Not long after that, the city lord had personally visited that clan. No one knows exactly the detail of their meeting is anything. But not long after that, there are only two hundred units sold in a single day.

In a tavern that usually used a few candles to light up when the sun is set, yet right now not even a single candle was found there. "Where is the waitress? It is already dark to this degree, yet there is not even a single candle was lighted up. This place is really poor like everyone said." A good-looking merchant and his team who usually visit from place to place between city and city said in a displeased voice.

"Hey, don't you hear our boss calling?" A robust man with his blunted voice said to a waitress in a deep voice. From the look of his appearance and raged clothes, it is likely he'd just met some distress situation outside the city.

"Sire, please wait for a moment as our boss is currently working on it." A waitress in her maid attire comes to inform them that their boss is preparing to light the room up.

Even it does not that darken yet as it is still early in the evening, but with them being inside the tavern building, it is quite dimmer than the outside. With everybody that present there eyeing them like a country bumpkin who just arrived in the city. The atmosphere becomes quieter as the robust who just about to lass out his displease tone toward the waitress again, yet the dim room suddenly lights up with brightness that not even five candles could handle. With the brightness that you can see the look of disdain from every other adventurer that currently drinking at this tavern too. Not long that the good-looking merchant stunned expression can be seen by everyone, the quiet atmosphere broken by the laughter from everyone in there.

With his embarrassment from his early words, he ought to ease up the atmosphere between these local men and women. As a merchant, how could he not know about how important the human connection inside a place that you never know. This trading business will fail if you don't gain more human connections within the place that you want to do business.

Just as his bodyguard about to lass out his anger toward the other in there, the good-looking man pet on his shoulder lightly to calm him down. Not everything needed to use strength to solve, with money you can also buy connection and ease what he had just said early. The good-looking man stands from his seat and said in a polite tone: "Sorry for what I have just said earlier, to compensate that, everything is on me tonight. Miss, this is for you." The good-looking man hand out a few gold coins toward her. Even though it is not much in the eyes of adventurers, but in her living environment, it is a huge sum of money.

"Sire, this is too much. I cannot take it, please take it back. I don't deserve to have it." This waitress even though her appearance is not that beauty comparing to the city lord daughter or Diana's clan Perl, however, she has her unique trait. She is the star in this tavern. Many adventurers have already broken their heart because of her.

"Come, come, and take it. If you don't take it, everyone here will think of me as a villain. And I don't want to live with remorse, too." He wants to get information from her since she is a local here, she ought to know a few things about this light, no.

"If you think this too much, you can exchange something in return." With just these words left his mouth, many men look at him with red eyes. From the look of them, it seems he spoken something wrong, again.

"I mean you can just be a guide for me as I have just arrived here, and I don't even have an inn to stay yet. So, tonight I will stay here. Thus, tomorrow morning you can become my guide to tour this city." The awkward atmosphere eases up with his experience.

------------

"I can finally sleep peacefully again tonight." After taking a bath from the natural pond, Vernora returns to the hut that she found it with Vimo that is next to this pond. She founds it hard to believe that there is a peaceful place like this that existed in the Amarillar forest. This kind of place should not have existed in the dangerous forest that peril could happen at any moment. It is already a few nights that both of Vernora and Vimo stay in this little hut.

Vernora also found something very interesting inside this little hut that is why she decided to stay here in the first place. There are many new things inside this little hut, she does not know who was the master of this hut, and she also wanted to know who is this master. Because of that, she has been waiting here for three days already, in the expectation of the hut master will return. Even though it is a bit dusty when she first found it, but sometime a master will be left for at least a few months to find the material for his research.

She would never expect to be able to use such beautiful light at night, and yet in this very little hut that is next to this beautiful pond, she could have such luxury things to use. This master must be someone who loves a peaceful and tranquil life.

"We have fish stew tonight. It has been a long time since we had this kind of life, so let us enjoy it while we can." Vimo smile at Vernora as she prepares the stew in the small little kitchen when she saw Vernora enter through the door.

Not long after both of them prepare to have their dining, yet a sudden knocking sound could be heard from outside the hut. Both Vernora and Vimo look at each other, both of them cannot think of anything else besides this hut master might return.

The smell of the stew catch the attention of Rosy when she passed by here, she is a bit hungry as she had not had a meal for a while now. And when she saw the sparking light in this hut, she has remembered when she first met William and Rosa. As it is the first place that left quite a good impression toward her, she also has a found feeling for it.

"Who is there? Wait for a moment." Vernora thinks that the hut master must be returned from his/her journey. However, there is no reply what so ever from the outside of this hut when she asks the question. The moment she opens the hut front door, she has looked everywhere, yet she could not see anyone else besides the moonlight in the sky.

Who dares to play with her, when there is a sudden scratch from something on her feet. So, she looks down to find an ethereal white looking like a puppy beside her feet. It tries to get her attention because she is standing next to it. The moment she sees it, she likes it. She wants to have it as a pet, she wants to watch how it grows. Looking at the yawn expression, and the way it licks its mouth, it must be hungry and need some sleep.

Vernora bends down to catch this ethereal white puppy, but it avoids her catching and just runs straight at the dining table. Vimo, who is currently preparing the meal, subconsciously pulls a short knife out from her storage ring. This little ethereal white puppy does not even glance at Vimo action as it enjoys the meat and stew on the table without caring. After that, it just laid on the table and peacefully sleep there.

Vernora finds it hard to believe that there is such a kind of spirit beast that existed in this world. Why would she think like that? Because there is no such spirit beast existed in the first place. Only if that is your spirit beast, it would never show such attitude toward the outsider.

"Such, cute little puppy." Vernora wants to pet this little puppy back, yet the initial sleeping puppy suddenly runs to the small bedroom instead of allowing to pet her. Look at how this little cute puppy knowing where to sleep like a human, her innermost feeling to tame this spirit beast grows stronger. Yet, she does not know the fate that might be brought to her because of this small encounter.
