"Damn it!" Frigs cursed.
Louis chuckled, "I mean, even the map said that there is no path connected to it, should we just try walking toward the direction?"
Frigs were silent, looking at the ground and was contemplating. Flashed of memories appeared on his mind, about the young, innocent, cute, pretty girl. As soon as the memories were shown to him in his mind, he knew what he needed to do.
Without looking toward Louis, he took a step on the grassland and said, "Well, you know… love sometimes is blinding people. Let's just make our way to the village, we can return here if we found out that we are lost."
Louis giggled and noticed something. He then shouted, "Hey! Take your horse with you!"
Around 15 minutes making their way at the grassland on horseback, they saw a rather tall hill. Louis pointed at the hill as soon as he saw it, "If according to the map and after doing some counting, we should arrive after that hill"
Frigs spurred his horse forward, galloping it, and then he stopped at the peak of the hill, not saying anything even after Louis shouted to him, "Hey! What do you see there?"
Not getting any response he wanted, Louis sighed, 'I wonder what it is, a monster? High technological advance civilization?'
He spurred his horse, galloping it forward, and what he saw from the peak of the summit was none other than a village. Not a normal village, houses were embedded at the nearby hills, pathway connected to each another.
Not only that, in front of the houses were some small-scale farm with people attending to it and not that normal people either. A shorter humanoid could be seen, all of their limbs. The appearance was all the same with normal humans, but they were smaller in size.
'Hobbits' was the first word that came into Frigs's mind as he continued examining the village.
In the centre of all of the part of the village, was a rather big pond, with young hobbits playing on it. And there she was, the one that caught his eyes the most, the girl he was chasing, the girl he wanted to be with, Bell.
He got off his horse and threw the leash of his horse to Louis that barely managed to catch it. Right after that, Frigs ran downhill, toward the location of the girl, ignoring all hobbits greeting him.
But all of a sudden, he saw a shadow leaping out of nowhere, tackling him to the ground. Of course, he was surprised and raised his arms as dust of steels came out of his pocket, forming a sharp, double-edged sword.
Then, he realized who it truly was, the familiar face and figure, Connor, the son of the Baron of Bareth. Frigs retracted the swords as it returned to dust of steels and went inside his pocket.
He then said to the man, still in the tackling position of him, but it could be said that the man was hugging Frigs instead, "Release me or I will form the sword once again and kill you"
As soon as possible, Connor released his grip and got himself up. He then cleaned his rather simple clothes with his dirty hands, which in fact, made it dirtier by adding black spots. Frigs sighed and got himself up, then cleaning his clothes too.
Right at the moment he just finished cleaning his clothes, Louis arrived without the horse's leash or the horses. He asked, surprised, "Connor? The son of The Baron of Bareth? What are you doing here?"
Connor, looking at his clothes, noticing the black spots he just added, sighed and mumbled, "This will be hard to clean…"
Frigs smiled at the words Connor mumbled, "It seems that you have improved! I thought you were still a spoiled kid!"
Connor smiled, "I realized what kind of work people are doing while I enjoyed the riches of my father! Oh yea, by the way, welcome to the village! I take care of all the things here and Bell is my assistant!"
Frigs was surprised, "Why didn't you tell me that Bell is your assistant?!"
Connor smirked, "This is a surprise for you, my saviour. Oh yea, another thing, I prepared a date tomorrow for you, knew that you would come today. And no, no, no, no, no, you can't meet her yet. We are planning to open a mine so that we can make tools and connect the village to a road!"
Frigs smiled and crossed his arm, "Well then… the journey is quite tiring!"
Connor smiled back, "Please follow me. There is an underground hotel that was being built until recently. In fact, you, Sir Edward and Sir Louis are our first visitor!!"
Soon, Frigs and his assistant found themselves laying on their beds. Connor that was standing at the doorway asked, "Well, how's the room?"
Frigs got himself up and looked around the room, "This simplistic, wooden wall, ceiling, floor, door, tables. Most of the part of the room is made out of wood but… someone decorated it that now it looks like a relaxing place"
Louis got himself up too and nodded, "Agree, and I don't know where you got the bed but it's very comfy, soft, I would say that if I focus on sleeping, it would take me less than half a second!"
Connor chuckled, "Well, Sir Edward could thank the girl you have a crush on and for Sir Louis, make sure to enjoy your trip here!"
Tomorrow morning, Aiden slowly opened his eyes, waking up from his sleep and got himself up to a sitting position. He then yawned while stretching his arm, "That was the best sleep I ever got in the entirety of my life!"
He then looked around the room, especially the wall and asked, "I need some sunlight… where is the sunlight???"
He slowly got himself up from the bed and realized where he was at that moment, then he made his way out of the door and hotel.
