Chereads / Wolf and Dragon Duo of the Gelter's / Chapter 12 - Chapter 12 - Volerlakes

Chapter 12 - Chapter 12 - Volerlakes

Third person POV

 They went to Volerlakes so they would rest up and recharge after all that chaos in the Lanes of Fire. Verena embraces Roel as her father and master, which Roel has to accept with no choice. The town was average in size, busy, and was located in a nice geography of plains and valleys. The buildings are nice and most of them are tenements of 3 to 4 stories high, often with nice tile roofing to add a cherry on top. The streets are paved with cobblestone, and the main, busy ones are hotspots for street markets whether day or night. As they walked along the busy streets, Verena was careful not to disturb anyone, or else, she would cause a huge commotion amongst the river of people.

 "Man, I wanted to relax," James commented. "This market street is packed with people."

 "Yeah, I'm hungry," Amaya added.

 "Want something to eat?" Roel asked them and others.

They agreed, and Kazaki just said a low "Okay then".

In reality, he wasn't that hungry at all.

Aife wanted roasted beef for lunch while James wanted roasted mutton.

Amaya, however, was unclear about what she wanted to eat for lunch.

Meanwhile in the kingdom of Gelters…

Unknown Voice: "We have finally defeated the kingdom of Gelters, We shall dominate this land and make sure everyone follows our rules"

Velceric: "Your Sire, the Army has been defeated. Shall we continue?"

Unknown Voice: "Yes, yes, you shall begin the invasion of Bulkvagor."

Back at Volerlakes…

Kazaki: (yawns)

Roel: "Hey, there's something off about your teeth."

Kazaki: "My teeth?"

Roel: "Yeah, they are pointy and stuff."

Kazaki: "Oh, you mean this?" as he pokes his pointy teeth "Everyone has 2 of them. What are you worrying about?"

Roel: "Yea, but yours are too pointy."

Amaya: "Can you guys stop talking about teeth? I am hungry."

As they were walking in the market street, they all saw a small food stand. They walked in, but no one was there; not a single human was there. As they all went towards the counter, someone popped up from behind; she said "Welcome to the Food Point. What do you want to eat?"

Aife and Amaya, amazed by her cuteness, went all out and started petting her. But Kazaki and Roel grabbed both of them and dragged them to a table. James didn't do anything towards the girl because he is a noble with a high reputation so doing something not nice isn't his cup of tea.

Roel: "Everything sounds nice on the menu"

Kazaki: "How about we have Roasted Mutton and Potatoes for lunch? It's on the menu. What do you think?"

Roel: "Sounds good."

Amaya and Aife are staring at the poor food stand girl, Nenini, while Verena is looking at her curiously.

Nenini: "May… I take your order?"

Amaya and Aife: "We want you." They then try to catch her.

But, Kazaki and Roel again grabbed them and said to Nenini: "We will take 3 plates of Roasted Mutton and Potatoes for lunch, please." They then both looked at Amaya and Aife sitting on their chairs, who were still staring at Nenini 

 "Okay, 3 plates of Roasted Mutton and Potatoes, " Nenini responded while jotting their order down on a leather-bound notepad. "Anything else? How about drinks?"

 "We'll have 5 glasses of water, please," James added.

 "Okay, how about dessert?"

 "Dessert?!" Roel stood up very excited with amazement in his eyes. "What dessert do you have in stock?"

 "Well…we have Sambocade on our menu," Nenini replied back meekly and nicely, "as well as soft pretzels."

Kazaki now remembered that, back in his previous life, Roel loved to eat sweets, from Filipino rice cakes to chocolate cakes.

So, he lets him have dessert.

 "Okay. we'll take a plate of Sambocade, please," Roel responded to the nice girl.

 "Okay then," Nenini replied back. "I'll be back."

She then went to her stand to begin cooking their order.

For the dessert, she already has one on hand.

 Later, their order came, and they all ate up. The meal was hot and roasting hot, which was perfect for those who were hungry. Roel gives some of the meat to Verena, who likes it very much. Nenini sees Verena and calls Roel a good owner.

 "Yeah...I am," replied Roel in admitting. "I had to take responsibility for killing her father."

Nenini was surprised. "Wait, you mean the Fire Dragon?"

 "Yeah…I didn't know this would happen if I did that."

 "Yes," Verena replied to her, "he is my master."

Kazaki and Amaya snickered a bit at him.

James and Aife tried not to laugh.

 "Guys cut it out!" Roel snapped at them.

Nenini then chuckled a bit.
