Alex and everyone was in the hotel room.
"Where is Miloslav?" Andrei asked.
"He might be at the tavern Captain," Ivan answered.
*SLAP*
Andrei facepalmed, he was walking all day so he didn't even have the energy to get upset.
"Have you anyone discovered where is Machaon?" He asked.
"No." Everyone collectively answered unenthusiastically, how was finding one man so hard in the damn city, it was impossible since nobody even knew who it was.
"Let's rest for today and continue it tomorrow." Andrei sighed and said this.
"Yes, Captain!!!" Everyone answered.
Time went on, guys washed up at the local bathhouse and went to sleep, it was a long while before it became day.
Everyone was sleeping right now, even Alex, he felt mentally tired so taking this time to get the tiredness out of him was good.
13 Hours Later.
"Aghhhh." Alex opened his eyes, cold wind came from the windows that were open right now.
"OH DAMN!!!" Alex noticed it was already a day, he looked around to see everyone gone, looks like they woke up before him.
Alex clothed himself and went down to the tavern.
It was morning so it was pretty much empty, except for the boys sitting at one table eating their lunch.
"How did they get money... oh wait, i guess Andrei sold something." Alex sighed and went towards the table.
"Sleepyhead has arisen, are you sure you don't have an affair with Hypnos?" Anzhel laughed.
"Shut up..." Alex shook the little tease off and sat down.
"Has Miloslav not come back?" He asked.
"That bastard must be sleeping in some tavern with countless girls around him." Andrei talked.
"How did he get so much money?" Alex was confused that brothels weren't cheap in this world.
"He never paid for anything and he has a habit of hiding his money," Dimas said this.
Everyone nodded and continued to eat their food, Alex was surprised at how delicious food was at this time, the spices they added to their food were extremely ancient, so Alex was tasting a new aroma of flavor every meal he ate.
It was refreshing.
But their peace was disturbed by something.
*KNOCK*
The door opened with a bang and a few people came in, they had traditional bronze armor, beautifully carved chest plates, incredibly strong-looking boots, very powerful helmets, enormous shields, and a sword on their waists.
Middle of the warriors, a calm and collected person could be seen, he was wearing a white scholar outfit with a paper pen on his ears, with black hair and blue eyes, he looked handsome.
"Greetings, we are searching for the people from the Mainland, i think they were looking for Machaon a few hours back." They asked the clerk.
The clerk mentioned the boys as the guards went towards them.
Man furrowed his eyebrows thanked the clerk and went towards the table, he looked through the guys that had casual outfits, most of the outfits were even ripped apart in some places, he had doubts people from the Mainland would use this kind of old clothes to go anywhere.
"Greetings travelers, my name is Homer, i have heard you people have been searching for Machaon and you are from Mainland, can you confirm that..." Homer was interrupted by something.
"PFFFFFFFF!!!" Alex spat out his drink.
"Oi, you alright?" Dimas knocked on his back.
*TWACK* *TWACK* *TWACK*
"Y...es..." Alex looked up and looked at the person with wide eyes, he calmed himself down quickly.
"We are indeed looking for Machaon... but we aren't from the Mainland," Andrei answered.
"Oh... well..." Homer was complicated, could he take this person to the palace?
"Well then, come with me please, you see, impersonating someone from the Mainland is not a capital crime, but we still need to investigate the culprits, please, you are not going to be treated badly, after we find who the people doing it, you are going to be released," Homer said this with a kind smile.
Andrei thought about it, they looked quite influential, and maybe these people would help them find Machaon.
"Everyone here?" He asked.
"Indeed, everyone," Homer answered.
"I agree, but there is still one idiot that is in our group and he isn't here..." Andrei sighed.
"Oh... give me the name as well as appearance and we are going to take him as well," Homer asked.
Andrei nodded and explained "About 25 years old, he has black hair, green eyes, muscular body, looks like an idiot, has an alcohol problem, and yeah... looks like an idiot... did i say he looks like an idiot?" He gritted his teeth.
Homer laughed awkwardly and nodded.
"Please follow my guards, they are going to lead you to your destination." He asked this.
Andrei nodded and made a come here motion with his hand, his 4 fingers moving to him.
Everyone nodded.
As Alex walked past Homer he went pale on not making himself seem suspicious.
Maybe these people didn't know who he was... but he knew exactly who this person was...
"Follow us," Guard said with a cold voice and went out of the tavern.
*BSHGHGHH*
Andrei threw the food on the table and followed the Guards out.
Homer stayed there for a moment looking towards the leaving boys, his eyes not being seen with his long hair covering it.
But as he pulled himself up... with a smirk and glowing blue eyes... he said.
"Interesting..."
--
"Where are we going?" Ivan asked to the Guards.
They were quiet and not saying anything.
"Hmph... arrogant pricks," Ivan muttered.
As they walked passed the shops as well as the roads, everyone was looking at them in surprise, The Boys could not understand why this was happening, hadn't these people seen guards in the past? why did they look so confused and interested as well as hesitant?
And when they finally got past the last house in the city... they knew exactly where they were going.
"Oh, my Olympus... we are going to the palace?" Anzhel said this shockingly.
Andrei furrowed his eyebrows and his hand went towards his sword.
*BSGHH*
Guard moved his sword around noticing Andrei's actions.
"This... how are we supposed to go up here," Ivan asked.
"Here." Guard pointed his hand towards the stairway that was going up in the mountain.
"You've... got to be kidding me." Andrei looked up and bearly saw the palace 300 meters up in the sky.
They were supposed to climb that?
No way he would do that easily.
