Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Bjorn Days Off

Bjorn carrying a bal of hay and bringing it to Bravery stables. It's been a weeks since his Orcs subjugation quest that he did in Noda villages right now. He goes back after attending Wills funerals and said goodbye to Sonja and her families.

This evening will be his his last day off, since tomorrow he will go to the guild and look for their quest again.

Even though he flawlessly slay those 5 Orcs, he consider the Noda villages quest as failure since he wasn't able to prevent any more victim even after he arrive. He remember the last will from his master letters as he reflect on his fail.

'You've done your duties to serve the kings and the noble as i live. This time i command you to serve the populaces and their homelands as i alrealdy gone.'

That was one of the will from his master letters.

Bjorn know very well that his master are nobles that really cares about his people well being. He also knows that many noble are not as kind as his master toward the peasant.

he knows that it's already written from a long time agoFrom his master letters conditions. And to respect his master sincere last will, Bjorn joined the adventurer guilds.

He joined not to gain fame nor fortune like everybody else. His purpose are just aiding and protect the ordianary peasant.

He never takes quest from merchant to guards their caravans. Instead he will always takes the untouched quest that has minimum rewards from the guilds.

From his past almost 3 years as an adventurers, The guilds are rewarding him as a gold class adventurers as his titles. Gold is the highest ranks that are given by the guilds.

The guilds already given Bjorn the gold titles but he demoted himself last year since a lot request from annoying nobles and people that have big influences started to flood him.

A lot of peoples known him with a lot of nicknames such as the generous horseman, the peasant heroes or the peasant knight.

And some peoples who just dont like him called him pretentious horseman. He never mind any of those nickname that peoples give him.

Right now Bjorn already settled with a houses in Pavel villages. It's a villages that are just outsides the Braten town where the guilds is located.

He get along with the villagers and the villagers treats him very well. They even let him join the villages meeting and treats him as one of their important peoples, even though he just move in last spring and no one knows that he was once a real knight.

Bjorn has a big house with stable and barn in Pavel villages. The villages doesn't have high walls like the ones that usually far away from towns. It's a very safe places to live as some soldiers on a horses will patrols around the area everydays.

"I've already prepares your meals Mr.Bjorn" a familiar woman voices called to him when he is brushing Bravery.

"Thank you Siel, you and Mel can take a rest if you've done all the works." said Bjorn to Siel.

Siel is one of the two servant that Bjorn hires to take care his home and himself. The other ones named Mel. Bjorn found both of them as a prisoners on a bandit den last summer.

Siel and Mel are cousins. Both of their parents that are merchant get slaughtered by the bandits a day before they brings them to their den. Bjorn give them options to work for him or go their own way since they are already young adults.

Both of them choose Bjorn first options, since they knows that they dont have anyone to return nor the connections to look for decent works.

They know that the worst thing can happen if they choose the seconds is either they become jobless and starves to death, or becomes a town harlot that are as good as dead for them.

Both of them are pretty smart girls. since their parents are merchant and they had better educations than ordianary peasant. The night when they arrives at their new homes, they decides to serve Bjorn with their body.

They think it's better that ways than getting their bodies defiled by other mans. Fortunately the bandits never rapes them as they wants to sell them as a high grades merchandise as they are both virgins.

Good looks that Bjorn has is also the other reasons that make them decides it. The other thing that make them do it is they are afraids to be abandoned and by Bjorn and become homeless.

Siel have kind and calm demeanor. She is attractive, fair skinned 19 years old beauty with long straight blonde hairs and dark green eyes. She is a older sisters figures for Mel.

While Mel has more straight forward personalities than Siel. She is also attractive beauty like Siel. But unlike her cousins, Mel hairs are a little bit wavy and has dark red colors. She braided her red hairs that are as long as her back and only untie it when she sleeps or serving Bjorn in bed.

The similiar traits that makes everyones believes when they tell them that they are cousins are only their fair skins and dark greens eyes.

They are very glads and content about their choices to becomes Bjorn servant in these past seasons. A little bit of uneasiness and sadness still lingers in them but they are really doing very well these past seasons.

Bjorn decides to get insides the houses after he is done taking care of Bravery. Siel and Mel already sitting and waiting for him at the table. Breads, meat stews, fruits and a jar of ale already prepared for him. They then ate their dinners together after he sit.

"Hey, is it really okay for us to sits at the same dining tables as you?" suddenly Mel ask Bjorn questions with timid voices.

"Hey, Mel..!!!" Siel raises his voices a little.

"But, usually you and me. Both of us didn't eat together with our servants at our home. And right now we're the servant." Said Mel to Siel.

"Your home is your home,Mel. But right now we're at my house. And i am no nobels,traders or knight so their rules wont apply to me." Said Bjorn to Mel. He can feels uneasiness on both of them.

"A seasons has passed since both of you work for me. And i am very grateful about all the housework that you've done." Praises Bjorn.

"I know that it's been hard for both of you after losing your families. And what happens already happens, so you can relly on me as your master from now on." he adds.

"So this kind of talks to make you being too considerates to me, i will forbids from now on. But if something do bothers you just tell me." said Bjorn to both of them.

"We understand Mr.Bjorn. I am sorry for our impoliteness, thank you for your kinds words." Siel replied.

"I am sorry Mr.Bjorn." Mel follows.

"Good then." said Bjorn before they all continue their dinners.

Bjorn told them that he will prepares for his adventures tomorrows, so he will spends the night at his barns. He said to knocks on the barns if they need something from him before he left.

Bjorn uses the barn on his house to store his equipments and weapons. It will always be locked when he is gone.

He grease his weapons and cleans his equipment inside the barn while thinking about both of the girls that he took in.

That time when he left his house, Bjorn can feels that both Siel and Mel are still distant around him, even thought they already works for him since summer.

But he also knows that even they already works for a season with him, they only meets less than 10 times. So it's normal for them to still be unfamiliar with him.

Bjorn mostly spending his times on the roads. He only come back to his house if Bravery needs to take a day off or when his quest are pretty close by.

He already slept with many girls on his life, but it's mostly short encounters like Sonja. It's the first time for him to take cares not only one but two at the same time.

The nights is already at it's darkest when he is done preparing all of his equipments. He blows the candles that give a dim light in the barn. Then he lay his bodies at the hays and cover himself with warm blankets.

'It's definitely warmer insides when there is two of them sleeping besides me, but i will end up doing them all night and lose my stamina for tomorrow if i do so.' Thought Bjorn before he falls into slumber.

Bjorn always wakes up at dawn. He opens the tin that has dim embers and blows it to make it more lit. He then use it to lit the candles.

After the candles are lit he started to wears his armors and prepared equipment.

He wears sleeveless gambesons that already modified with mail that are sewed to replaces the sleeves over his tunic. Then he wears Brigandine armors that are as long as his thigh over his modified gambesons. He also wears a leather belts over it.

He finished after he put on his shoulderguards,bracers,and gloves that are made from hides and steel plates and also a leathers boots that are reinforced with plates.

He slips a dagger and a hammers to his belts that has the seath for it around his stomach. He then carry his bags and his pollaxe to the stable.

Bjorn then began to put Horse mail armors over Bravery bodies. Bravery always willingly let Bjorn put the armors over his body. As they have already been togethers for 8 years.

The first time they meets Bjorn are still 15 years olds while Bravery is 5 years olds. Their trust are forged from all the battle that they have been through.

"I've bought you the drieds foods rations and ham sandwich for your lunch todays Mr.Bjorn." He can hears Mel voices calling over him. Her voices are still raspy probably just get up from her sleeps.

"Oh, thank you Mel." Replied Bjorn. he already done putting the armors and Pollaxe on Bravery.

"Umm.... i am sorry about yester...." Said Mel but Bjorn cut in before she finished.

"What you said yesterday are not something to apologise for too long. Now i will ask you, did you happy to serve me...?" Ask Bjorn after cutting her with serious face and faint smiles.

Hearing Bjorn questions and and looking straight at his face makes Mel face turned red before she answered shy.

"O..of course, there is nothing to complains about our living coditions." She said with a light smile on her blushing face.

"That's good then." said Bjorn before he walks toward her and kiss her forehead.

"You and Siel are part of my houses right now, so you can relly on me." said Bjorn to her. He is happy when he see her sincere smiles.

Bjorn can see Siel already standing and smiling near the trees in front of the stables when Bjorn kisses Mel and told his words to her.

He then come to her and pat Siel head before kissing her in the forehead too.

He said his goodbye to them after that kiss and wearing his helmet. The sky already a little bit bright even thought the suns are not up yet as he ride on Bravery back.

With one less worries left his heads, Bjorn onces again set on a adventures to fulfill his master last orders.
