The interior of the carriage was elegant the cushion was red while the exterior is black.
He sat at the left side of the carriage while Harold was on the right side the head Butler was also with them his name was Cairo a man in his mid-thirties, Xarth looked toward Harold and said.
"Please take care of me."
The head Butler Looked towards Xarth as he had said that.
"Yeah just behave and nothing will happen."
Xarth nodded his head and looked through the window of the carriage as they started to move he can see a beautiful scenery in the distance.
A man on a horse moved beside the window of the carriage it was Ernoul.
"Hyung-nim I'm sorry I didn't go to your room I just thought that you were tired so I left you be."
"It's fine, I'll explain it to you later for now let's safely travel to the capital maybe when we set up our camp I'll tell you."
"Yes, Hyung-nim!"
Ernoul moved back to where he was stationed.
Then someone spoke at that moment.
"Who was that?"
Xarth looked at where the voice came from it was his Elder Brother Harold.
"It was my knight."
"Knight?"
"Yes, Brother he saved my life so I thought he could be a good personal knight."
"Huh!?... Save your...life!?"
"Oh, right Brother you didn't know...It happened when I was out on the streets someone tried to rob me and he even has a knife thankfully Ernoul was there I could have died when he didn't step in."
'Well, to be honest, it's not even true and if I were alone I could easily beat the robber's ass.'
"Haaaa... Don't you have any guards with you?"
"Ha!? Guards? You know everyone Hates me do you think they'll guard me!?"
"....."
Harold just stared at him.
"What!?"
"Nothing....good thing your safe I'll thank him later."
He replied and slowly looked through the window.
'What's with him? Why is he talkative today? .'
'This brat going out without a guard how naive can you be.'
Xarth opened his Spatial bag and took out the book he had found at the Forest of Lila.
'Now then since it's a long journey why don't we kill some time and get info as well by reading this book. It's Killing two birds with one stone.'
Xarth slowly opened the book the first page has something written on it.
'The one who seeks power should go to The Twin hideout in the Eastern Continent find an artifact and placed it on the heart of Puca Kingdom.'
Xarth flipped the paper to move onto the next page but oddly enough it seems there was nothing written in it he analyzes the page thoroughly but nothing can be seen he flipped another page there was also nothing he continued until he got to the end of the book there was still nothing but blank pages.
'What the hell!?.... Why is it all blank except the first page!?'
He flipped back to the first page and analyze the sentence.
'Eastern continent.....Puca kingdom? A new Kingdom. I've never read any Puca kingdom in vol. 1 to 3 damn it does this means this is supposed to happen past vol. 3 I don't have any more knowledge for the future events. Guess that's the time to not bother with the storyline I'll just live my life as Xarth I mean it's pretty good I eat delicious food I'm rich and handsome what could I ask for!? Still... I'm hoping I could go back to my world as well the fact that I'm still inside the novel hasn't sunk in yet. I just can't believe it.'
"sigh*"
'Huh, why does he looked troubled?'
" Young master Xarth is there something wrong you looked troubled?"
"Ha?"
"Oh excuse me! I'm Cairo Young master Harold's Butler."
"Oh, I'm fine."
"Alright Young master Xarth."
Xarth tossed the book inside his Spatial bag he looked out through the window of the carriage they were moving constantly up ahead was a bumpy road.
The carriage started to vibrate because of the small debris on the ground.
'Ha...This is uncomfortable when I first came in inside the carriage I thought that the cushion looked very comfortable but now... It's definitely hard my butt is hurting through the constant shake. This is why I hate bumpy roads.'
"STOOOOOPPPPPPP!!!!!"
The carriage then suddenly stopped Xarth looked out the window and saw people in orange clothes they were armed with weapons.
'Seems like there is some company hmm..1 2 3 4...10 Who are they? Bandits?. This could be troublesome...'
"Coachman why suddenly stop?"
"Young master Harold it seems like there are bandits!'
"Bandits!?"
"Yes, they will likely Try to rob something."
'Stupid of course it's natural they'll rob us. Ha...Do I have to step in?...No it's too early at least I should trust the guards to do their jobs?'
"Young master Harold they seem to have someone as their hostage."
"Hostage what does he looked like?"
"He has jet-black black hair which is pretty rare. "
'Huh!?...Black hair? Let's check it out.'
Xarth opened the carriage door all the soldiers' eyes headed to the door opening they could see Xarth casually getting off.
'Xarth I told you to behave yourself! You just can't listen.'
"Xarth! Don't get out! Let them handle it they are soldiers from our household they'll take care of it."
"There's just something I want to find out."
'Ahhh!! I want to smack your head!"
Harold also got off the carriage and walked next to Xarth.
'Huh!? Harold?'
"What do you mean 'Huh!?' I could see it on your face. who do think they'll let their brother go out there alone."
"You should go inside you can't fight."
"What...I can't fight? Hahahahhaha!!"
'Is he crazy?'
"Hey I'm next in line for the succession of the Count title we are a Martial household do you really think I didn't do any training speak for yourself you are no better than me."
'Ah!? Right, I forgot I'll let him handle it but first let's see this supposedly hostage.'
Xarth walked to the front of the carriage he could see the group of bandits in orange clothing with their axes and swords glaring at him.
He looked at the bandits one by one he could see someone holding a rope and a man sitting on the cold ground he has jet black hair and black eyes he looked a little beat up with his clothes stained with the cold ground's dirt.
Xarth's eyes widen he also started to open and close his mouth.
*WHOOSH.....
A small breeze passed through him he bit his lip and clench his hands before looking away from the bandits.
"You gotta be kidding me!!"
'WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING OVER THERE ZERO!!???'
