《The ice queen and the nobody》V1-Chapter 6 - first morning
Advertisement
Pain, only pain and discomfort felt the young couple, during the night trying to fall asleep due to the hard floor which they were not used to, achieving their goal after a few hours.
The next morning, due to the harsh rays of the sun, they both woke up, the first to wake up was Yulio, all sore and tired at night, but when he saw his beautiful wife sheltered with the only blanket they had, all him Pain was fading and filled with encouragement, who came out of his stupor when his partner opened his hunted eyes to stare at him even in sleep.
"Good morning" greeting Yulio sorry that his wife answered somewhat sorry.
"Good."
And after their first greeting in this new house, they both looked at each other awkwardly until Yulio left the room saying.
"What a terrible night ...., we urgently need a bed or something."
Faced with such a correct comment, his beloved wife, even knowing what would happen to have a bed, could not help answering him with all sincerity.
"You're right..."
And with the good morning expressed, both began to get ready for the new day, to then take out some food reserves, and having no furniture, they had no choice but to find an acceptable place to eat, being none other than the stairs from the main room, where they enjoyed a very humble breakfast while discussing what today's plans were, starting a stupid question mark.
"What are we going to do?"
Asked the young husband against him, who first of all looked at him ugly for such a question, and then sighed at his wit, giving way to briefly think about the answer and say it with annoyance.
"First of all, get as much information as possible from the village chief, then perhaps depending on how the meeting goes, we would have to explore the town and see with our eyes how things are, and after gathering all the information we will start working According to this, did you understand?."
It should be noted that Yulio noticed the bad mood of his partner from her question, feeling bad but even so, he did not answer against it, rather she answered it with another question.
"Yes, I understand, listen, and about what we discussed about how we divide the supposed tasks, does that still stand? Because I think it would be good if ..."
but the suggestion was abruptly interrupted by it
"No!, of course not, I already demonstrated during the trip that you do not serve or to convince your servants to stay here, you are fatal concerning the military area, and it only saves you that you are good at agriculture and you know more or less general knowledge, You are just a farmer with average education, So the only thing you are going to do is manage the accounts that apparently will not be so difficult to work with zeros, try to give a good image of sir, and as you say, try to cultivate something in this misery and exercise. I will take care of the rest, do you understand?

These harsh, angry, and cold words broke the populous will of Yulio accepting his bad treatment while reminding him how useless he was. This being exposed and expressed with a pathetic apology.
Time slowly passed for the young couple as they waited for a visit from the village chief, during which time they used it to finish grooming themselves, study a bit, set the mood for the meeting, and plan their conversation with the chief. Once the old man arrived, they received him politely and guided him to a room in the mansion, where he was standing out of place, a table with 4 backless chairs made of stones found in his courtyard that were poorly sculpted by the magic of Crystal; Upon entering the room, the 3 had different reactions to the furniture, surprise for the village chief and sorrow for the couple, but not for these reactions they could not accommodate themselves in such a way that the village chief was facing the couple, being It is more specifically the one who started the formal conversation trying as they had planned before 'trying to give a good image of the Lord' saying.
"Well, Mr. Antenio, I hope you can explain the current situation of the town, for now, why don't you tell us a bit about why the town is so ruined."
Then Antenio began his explanation
"About the first, I don't know, the story says that the damage was so devastating, that it would take all the power of several high-ranking clerics but his transfer has been postponed, for different reasons, I don't know much about that, about, On the other hand, we citizens here find it difficult to decide to start from scratch in another place, but in addition to that, the family of the Earl of Monterio, have prohibited after the war, all emigration of the people claiming that the place cannot being left unprotected due to danger from an invasion from the forest, and because in the future it is planned to solve the problem and apparently it is true because every so often we see some of the count's envoys passing into the dead forest."
Yulio asked next.
"I see, well that explains how they are still here, but tell me, how they stay? since as you say water is poison, there are no crops apparently, and outside there are many monsters to dedicate to commercial anything."
When asked, the village chief told him
"Well, what happens is that, at the beginning of the misery, as a survival measure it was decided to create a second common water pool in the town and both cover them with purifying spells, using the first to purify and another to use it, so when the second is finished, the first is ready to use, the problem is that the purification takes about a month and the water hardly yields for the population, the other is that every 5 years you have to pay a lot of money to the earl so that he can send some Mages who fix purification spells as they wear out over time. That is about the water, about the food, the hunters of the town, they provide us from time to time with some monsters to eat and obtain their skins, with which we can use them to commercialize it and obtain money for the magicians.

After the speech, Yulio continued questioning.
"Umm I see, well with that I would explain, the situation of the town, but I have one last question, you know why this mansion is in ruins, as I understand it, when we came, the old man retired, so he did not I explain this situation."
This question provoked the old man, sweated a little, and hesitated to answer something that was noticed by the couple who prepared for their answer.
"Hey well, I don't know how to tell you, hey, look, you didn't hear it from me, but you know, the gentlemen who have come before you, arrive and go to the nearby city the next day, leaving the mansion abandoned without protection If you know what I mean no? but please don't punish us for that please."
Given this statement, both understood why they slept so badly, and they insulted the previous owners inside and they were going to insult the people if it were not for their final plea which reminded them, the precarious situation that plagues them, meanwhile in the outside both answered him.
"Already..."
And Yulio continued saying.
"Well do not worry, we will not punish anyone, also we will stay in this place to emerge with you, umm well I suppose that with this we have to start working, thank you very much for your information, with this you can withdraw, I hope good luck."
In saying this, both, Yulio and Antenio were preparing to stop when Crystal stopped them saying coldly.
"Wait a bit both, Sir Antenio, according to your explanation the hunters of the town provide fur and food to the town but what happens to the soldiers, what they do in this town, for those who I saw when we arrived, were in bad driving. Explain us Antenio."
Then Antenio answered him.
"Well, the soldiers, right, this one, they stay to protect the town, my lady, they are an example to follow."
But Crystal before the dubious answer of Antenio she faced it.
"Antenio, your answer sounds as if it were hiding something, tell me the truth of the situation of the soldiers in this town, do not worry, nothing bad will happen to you, we are now the lords of the town and therefore the law and the order here, you have nothing to fear."
Before the fierce lady's strong confrontation, Antenio submitted, spitting everything out.
"The soldiers, they are corrupt, taking advantage of their power representing justice and leaning on the power of the lords who are not to handle things, they took the people as their own in such a way that they take and command as they please, As half of our water reserves to just say something, their only exception are the low-ranking soldiers who have no power among them and have to suffer like us but even so they take advantage of us a little, an example is the gate guards. Please my lords do justice to them.
Yulio upon hearing his statement was shocked about that dark truth, but on the other hand his wife did not seem surprised, rather a little colder than normal; Then Crystal then comforted him saying.
"Don't worry, justice will be done, my husband and I are not going to allow this kind of abuse by the soldiers, so go and call me the commander who rules over this town and that he present himself with all the soldiers except the Doormen, in front of the mansion at two o'clock ... I say at 2 o'clock at the latest or he will suffer terrible consequences, now go and go."
Antenio shocked with the imposition of the mandate shot out of the mansion, leaving the couple alone in silence again, this time being Crystal who broke the ice.
"What rage those soldiers give me, the soldiers must be the representation of order, justice and security in the town, I will make them pay for their crimes."
Yulio before this statement could not help thinking and then upset his partner.
"But look, as you know if what Antenio said is true, we have only seen some soldiers since we entered yesterday."
Said this Yulio, Crystal under the intensity and reason a little better, seeing Yulio in a good way for his reasoning and said to him.
"Reason ..., I suppose I went too far, thank you Yulio, but with or without corruption I was also planning the meeting, so let's do this, go and see the town to confirm what the mayor said asking the villagers, or looking at what the soldiers do, go because you have until one.
At this order Yulio could not help asking,
"Because I?
resulting in a cold response.
"And why not? Also,didn't you want to exercise?
Yulio before such logic could not refute it, continuing to put on her worst clothes, in order to disguise herself as a villager and leave for the town leaving her partner alone, who prepared to organize this afternoon's event, but both in their task could not. avoid remembering something very important by thinking the following.
[Damn, forget to ask about a bed.]
