《Post-Living》Chapter 29: Airea
Advertisement
After a long and painful journey, we finally reached the country of Ardia, and here we are in it's capital, Airea. This is where the talk of that blue-eyed guy started, according to Dan. I followed him, and we crossed mountains and high cliffs, only to find out that we could go around it and make the trip less tiring than it already was. Because of that, he probably felt guilt, which is rare for him nor any assassins at all. He let me stroll around the forest, and well, I'm already tired so I took a nap beneath the shade of a tree.
"Haaaa...."
Peace and quiet, and on top of that, it doesn't feel hot at all. The trees that surrounded the one I was beneath in covers the heat of the sun, and damn, it feels really good. I wish I can take another nap, but I want to finish this job as soon as possible. I want to come back to this place.. maybe with him, so he could finally rest.
I stood up and dusted off my clothes. It's time to go back to the "city" part of this capital, and see if Dan made progress. Remembering the path I took, I quickly went back to the city. A stone gate blocked the entrance, and beyond that stone gate was buildings and houses that spans ontop of a mountain. Ah! I remember, the city of Airea, which is the largest capital on the country..
Wait, come to think of it, this is the only city in the country. It was massive. The castle of the king that rules this city is on top of that mountain, and there's a long, straight path that connects this gate and the castle. I passed through the gate, and it seems that this city is populated as well... it would be hard to find Dan around here. Knowing him, he's probably in a shop trying to get information on that town..

I have time to kill, so I might as well explore this city and tire myself out.
The straight path connecting the castle and the gate is the main way to get to the other parts of the town. A lot of paths branches off from this path, so I'm going to call it the Main path. I went straight, and there was a bridge connecting the mountain that the castle is on, and the houses.
"Woow.."
I muttered, because it's actually really beautiful here. The mountain is surrounded by water, separating it from the buildings and other houses.
"Oh! There's the wooden girl!"
Dan appeared on the mountain side of the bridge, much to my surprise.
"The hell are you doing there?!"
"I kind of got lost, the signs in this place is seriously hard to find. I went to the middle, which is this mountain, and tried to look where I was going next."
Oh... that's understandable.
"Alright, have you got any leads yet?"
Well, we can't stay here for too long, can we?
"Of course I have, who do you think I am?"
A bad, lazy "mentor".
"No one actually have been to the city, but I found something that can lead us there."
Dan's specialty is looking up information from nowhere. Seriously, how the hell does he keep finding information like this?
"What's that, then?"
"You see, there's a Quest Hall here in this city. They said he didn't reveal his name, but he was offering help against the undead, based on the quest poster. There were a lot of people that didn't go back after they took that certain quest. I managed to pull out all the information I can from the quest admins."
Oh..! I see his point. He means that maybe that blue eyed guy is part of the undead that the town is fighting against! But.. wait...

"..Hmm, wait.. How did you make them talk?"
Did he threaten them?!
He looked straight at me, and said..
"Wait, are you thinking that I threatened those admins?"
Well, yes, I am.
"No.. look, I became friends with them.. and.."
"And?"
"Yeah, ok, I threatened them. But hey, we're assassins, it's alright."
I guess it is, but we can't afford to blow our cover or else we'd be fugitives!
"Come on! The town is at the west of this city."
"Alright, let's go!"
I couldn't use my power, because I was afraid I'd get seen, so I just ran.
Although, I have a bad feeling about that town..
