author notes. Know im a bit sad no ones noticed this. But i like to leave hints about major plot developments in the story.Next chapter one of those plot points that I hinted at will be revealed. If anyone can guess it before next release. The next 2 releases after that will be released faster. Just some motivation there.

~sword PoV~
Upon leaving the small village,we began walking on a simple dirt road south. Since this village is located rather far north and is a far distance away from any other settlement i began to wonder what Owner is going to do for food.
After about a few hours i found out. Apparently this world is full of traveling merchant’s that go up and down roads selling/buying gear from adventures that are either coming or going from the uncharted area. They travel in large bands of 4-5 wagon’s with guards. Now normally the guards would need to be paid but since the king of the country wants to expand his land rapidly. As long as the merchant’s travel up and down the main roads he will offer them protection to assist the explorers who go into the uncharted territory.
And as you would guess theirs a food shop there selling traveling food like jerky,crackers,etc also sell’s canteen's full of fresh water. My owner didn't even beat a eyelash at this and acted like its perfectly normal.
And since none the books i read in the “white world” told me about this i was quite confused. My owner bought a new traveling bag. (think like one of those book bags that have rope for straps and are made of plastic obviously this was made of leather.)
After buying The needed supplies she then set on her way towards the main road. About 2 days on our journey. We were attacked by bandits. The looks on there face told exactly what they were planning to do while staring at owner. I was glad When owner asked me to activate my [intimidating aura].

( aa i have been asked multiple times how does a sword have a aura and i shall explain my thought process.)
anwsers to questions
I put so much force into the aura that the bandits just fell over, And it wasn't pretty. After owner took all their money and any valuables they had on them she start to jog away at a nice pace. Shes probably thinking of improving her stamina and agility . I read that in a book pushing oneself to the limits increase stat points. and you can view those stat points in a thing called a status window. If i am to guess its one of those blue boxes that display’s information.
About a few more bandit and monster attacks later. She came across another merchant. She bought some rather cheap looking leather armor and sold everything we got from the bandit’s. She also told him that she just came from that way and cleared out the bandits on that road. After walking for abit of time be began to approach a stone brick road, which can only be what is considered the main road and started heading east.
After a few hours of normal walking owner stopped in place and looked up towards the sky. Her eyes show that she activated her ability [think mode] And begun to start off into space.After a few minutes of thinking she started to do some stretches. After she was done doing the stretches She gotten into a sprinting position, And started to run at full speed.
After about a hour i could tell she was about to run low on energy, so i decided to play a trick on her.Without her knowing i began pouring mana which i converted into light attribute recover magic that was already a function on my sheath into her replenishing her energy and stamina.
She keep running for 2 day’s straight and even ran through the night.And before she knew it we were upon the city walls. If knowledge served this city is called Scholas, And is the sit of knowledge through this continent. It housed many different academy’s. That varied from adventuring and combat schools To magic and research.

I was wondering what owner was doing here, When she activated [cloaking presence] Which i set up to automatically activate when she says those words, Since it was a pain to manually do it, I keep intimidating aura on manual though because i needed to control the output.
Owner began to approach the line of massive people trying to get in that varied from merchant caravans like we saw before. Adventures coming to the guild hall that was in the city. And young kids varying from 12-18, Which i guess came to get into one of the academy’s.They were formed in different lines each set out for different purposes.
One was for adventures and people who had business in the city, The others were for students and kids who wanted to be students, and for the merchant’s and there caravans. Owner entered the line for the students, And just went with the flow of aspiring students.
After hours of waiting in line, And countless guys trying to hit on owner we finally approached the gate.Owner Was ecstatic that it was finally her turn. The guardsman who stood at the student entry gate had a bored expression on his face and he was oozing the feeling that he didn't want to be here.
He was holding a thin black slate That appeared to be made out of stone . Owner approached him and stood waiting for him to do his job but since he didn't start the conversation first owner decided to.
“Hello, my name is Laura Vayne i wish to enter the city to apply for tel’ram academy.”
I was shocked, I had finally heard owners name. It took awhile but i finally knew the name,Yes i need to remember this laura Vayne. I think i’ll just call her master Vayne. Lost in my own train of thought i began to get pulled by the chain’s that were attached to the sword.As master Vayne entered the city with a irritated expression on her face i was wondering when she started moving well doesn't matter now.
I began to float forwards over my body and accompanied Laura into the city….Laura it has a nice ring to it rolls right off the tongue. With that i begun to absently follow her as i began to get lost in my train of thought. By the time i snapped back into reality it was night and owner was sleeping on a shabby bed.
I was leaned up against the wall next to the bed so i floated out the window. I noticed we were in a two story building that looked like a inn. It seems master Vayne had rented a room to stay a night i floated back into the room and was about to begin my [meditation](not advanced meditation this is slower but the user still aware at what's going on around him.) When i detected presences at the door. I activated my mana perception and noticed 5 men standing outside the door while one was hunched down and fiddling with the door lock.
Without even a second thought i activated [intimidating aura] at the one who was messing with the lock. I hit him with the more intense one then the other since i didn't want Master Vayne waking up from the sounds of multiple bodies hitting the floor.
When there comrades body hit the floor it snapped them out of there trance,Also i let of some pressure. They picked up his body and scurried away. As they rapidly retreated i sighed.
“look’s like i wont be able to meditate tonight.”
That night 3 different groups tried to break into the room and by the time it was morning i was pissed so many people tried to kidnap owner. Unknown to me that extra boost to charm and beauty really had a large effect on all the kidnapping attempts.

This is not the usual dungeon core story. I did not originally plan to make it humorous, but, well, you'll see. This fiction will not turn into a story about a bunch of adventurers who enter a giant boars anus looking for treasure. No promises tho.
