"Alright, this is the farthest I can bring you two. The closest town from here is around a two-hour walk that way, good luck on your mission," The carriage driver said as he dropped them off in the middle of a road.

"Alright, thanks. Hopefully, we can get your services next time we go out. As for now, see you later," Kias said as he waved goodbye to the carriage driver.

"Same to you, hopefully, you two can come back in peace. Especially her, wouldn't want to see her hurt anywhere now," The carriage driver said as he pointed at Shiro.

"Yeah no worries, she can handle it herself. She is strong after all," Kias said as he rubbed Shiro's head.

"En," Shiro merely nodded in agreement.

"Alright, see you two. Be careful now!" The carriage driver said as the horses started to pull the carriage.

"Same to you! Remember, you're the one with the carriage! Be careful of thugs and bandits!" Kias said as he started walking with Shiro towards the town.

"No problem, my horses are trained to kick those thugs and bandits. They won't be able to do anything, my horses can run pretty quick anyway. Besides, the next city isn't that far by carriage. I'll be there in around half an hour," The carriage driver said before he finally disappeared into the distance.

"Hmm, oh well. Let's grab anything we see so we can sell it for some money as well. Just in case we ever need to retire," Kias said as he looked at Shiro.

"Okay," Shiro said as she kept her eyes peeled open just in case she would meet some money like object she could get her hands on.

Even dragons love treasure and gold coins. Why wouldn't she or anyone else love them?

After walking and collecting fruits and laying ores from the middle of nowhere. The two finally made their way towards the town in around an hour of walking due to their speed.

However, the town was covered by a huge wall, it should've been called a city instead. There was a gate that people had to walk by and get checked in before they could walk inside.

"Oh, a wall. Must've been because of the wyvern that they need that kind of protection," Kias said as he looked at the crossbows that were set on top of the walls.

"En," Shiro said as they both headed towards the end of the line. Which was quite long if one had to say. There were two different lines, one for carriages, and one for non-carriages.

"What a long line, by the time we get in, it's going to be evening," Kias said as he looked at the long line and started to calculate in his head.

"En," Shiro said.

As the two were talking about this, no one in the line would expect something ridiculous to happen.

It would happen in a while, just as Kias and Shiro were about to enter the gates. Something that might add a traveling partner to their group.
