"First-class you say? And humble?" He snickered. "Check him." He nodded to one of his men and a soldier came near me. I handed him my card and he nodded back at the baron before giving it back to me. "What are you doing with one of our men?"
Technically, this girl was a woman though.
"She was being attacked by a monster and I happened to be nearby. She has bought my services and since I was heading to the capital anyway, I accepted." I kept it short. I was here in undercover, kind of.

I had a bad feeling about all this. I could literally see where this was going and I didn't like it. "100 Xylax gold." It was fifty though.
