Chapter 174 - Fifth Retriever - Part 2

A few moments later, we have managed to reach our vacancy house. There we are leaving the cart,and when did that, Ulfred left the house, and he saw us having some injures who weren't healed completely. Probably mine were much more visible because I cannot heal myself. He took a good look at Garnet, and he asked me, while Taka was driving the carriage back to the owner of it, and it is at three house distance from us.

We are going into our house, Ulfred helped us to move there, even though we were both able to walk at the house. When we got into the house, Garnet and I are heading to our room, where we will be sitting in bed to rest. Sounds weird, but a rest after a fight like this it is recommended. As soon as I got into the bed, I stare at the ceiling, while Garnet could be heard sleeping. Poor girl, got her battle skill absorbed into a crystal. The crystal it is on my backpack, which is under my bed, I put it there before I was about to sleep.

In a few minutes, Ulfred enters the room, he sees Garnet is sleeping, and he observes that I am awake.

"Are you alright?" he asks in a low voice to me, thinking that he would wake Garnet from her sleeping.

"Yeah... I cannot sleep." I say to him in a low tone as he approaches. "I am afraid."

"What happened there?"

"We've fought the fourth assassin."

"Really?" he says surprised. "D-D-Did you defeat it?"

"No. We were close. But he managed to flee."

"Oh... Fuck... Was it hard?"

"Yes. He got Garnet powers into a crystal. Beat about ten Taka's clones, and survived my vampire family spell."

"You summoned into a vampire?"

"Yes. But it wasn't enough to stop that, freak."

"We are in trouble... Did he follow you all here?"

"I don't think so. He left the Tavern when he attacked us, because my vampire spell it is not able to go through the light."

"Vampires." he looks at the open door, and he then tells me. "Are you alright? You got hurt somewhere?"

"Some bones might've break and bruise. I think I will need a life potion."

"Good thing I still have it." he says as he leaves the room, and he goes searching for that potion to heal me.

In about three or four minutes he comes back with a small bottle with potion like that. He made me drink it. I drank all the bottle with only one swallow and in a matter of a few minutes, I am feeling fine and energetic. I got out from the bed, thanked Ulfred for the potion he administrate to me and I leave the room. As I got outside the room, I am heading to the kitchen where I and my friend are going to wait for Taka to come back.

Outside the house with green roof, on the streets, a man is wearing a fine hat, noble clothes and on the left hand is using a cane to walk like refined gentlemen instead of a man with an injury. The man name is Thomas, and he is looking at that house with a smirk on his face.

"So, Monica was right about this house." says to himself as he looks at a parchment with the coordinates the dead woman took it after he spied the owner of this building for about three days. "Monica was such a woman who was better at analyzing the prey, the other five incompetence, they wouldn't even be able to find mosquitos in a toilet with a lot of crap." He puts the parchment on his pocket, and before he could do another step, three children are running from the other way, cutting his way. One of the dropped a toy on the ground.

Thomas is looking at the toy which resembles a rabbit plushie, he took it from the ground, and he looks at the kids who stopped from, running. The kid who dropped the rabbit runs to Thomas, who give the rabbit and tells him nicely.

"Be careful at running, kid. You wouldn't want to drop your toy, again."

"Thanks, mister!" says the kid after he took his rabbit plushie, and he runs to his group who continues to run with his group where they have to go.

Thomas look again at the house with green roof, and he walks it there with his cane.

"Mr. Bosod." says Taka knocking on the door of a house. "Are you there?"

After a few minutes, a man, dressed in rural clothes of medieval era, wearing a hat to cover his bald head opens the door of the house, and he is looking at Taka curios.

"What happened there?" he asks.

"We got into an attack with a criminal. Thankfully, the authorities have come and took it."

"D-Did it did something to Amadeus?" asks the man looking at his horse, but he sees him tied on the carriage, eating grass. He relieves and he tells Taka. "Who was that man?"

"It doesn't matter now. And thank you." she says and like that, she leaves Mr. Bosod alone, speechless and looking at his horse eating the grass Taka gave it to him. "Who are those people?" he asks looking at the woman leaving in a hurry of steps.
