[Screa Port City, Outer Land]

9 days have passed since the group have fought the bandits and thus the rotten corpses are starting to smell, luckily Kaido managed to get rid of the smell by circulating a barrier on them and freezing them them to preserve the corpses and get rid of the smell

For 9 days they've only passed one village and finally made it at the gate of Screa Port City

When they approached the gates, a city guard halts them at their tracks

"May I know what business your here for?" Asks the guard

"Oh! We're here for just travelling!" Said Rebecca

After that the guard looked inside and saw an elf and a guy sitting by the sides while a pile of bags contained in a frozen barrier inside the carrier

"Then what are those?" Asks the guard

"Yeah! The thing is... When we were on our way here we somehow encountered a group of bandits, we were planning to hand this over to you guys!" Said Rebecca

"Bandits?" Asks the guard

"Bandits" replied Rebecca

Hearing her the guard called out to another guard and told him to dislodge the dead corpses

After that the guard faces Rebecca

"We now have all the corpses, after we identify them we will give you your rewards but for now do you guys at least an ID or permit so that you can enter?" Asks the guard

"Yeah here! Look were Adventurer's" said Rebecca

Seeing her ID the guard let them come in but before they could pass him he said

"Be careful of those greedy nobles! Especially the elf! Those bastards don't have any shame at all and do what they want!" He whispered

"Don't worry we can handle ourselves!" Said Rebecca

**************

Hearing the guard Kaido smirked

"Seems like no matter what world you came from they are always greedy and corrupt rich people" he whispered

Melfina clearly heard Kaido but chose to kept silent

"By the way... What are you guys doing in the village?" Asks Kaido

"No need to worry kaido-sama they are training themselves to be a better fighter and be a better use to you!" Said Melfina

"Good! How about the spies?" He asks

"Those traders? It seems that they are still doing they're work diligently and now they expanded their side from few traders they have made other people with other occupation join they're group and follow your instructions" said Melfina

"I see!" Reacted Kaido

"Some of them started to call you boss by the way!" Added Melfina

"I see!" Reacted Kaido with a sweat trickling down his face

After few silence Melfina stated

"But the thing is kaido-sama there is one guy who seems to be plotting something behind you, and now he's procuring soldiers to protect himself from you while betraying your trust...." Said Melfina grimly and with anger in her tone

"That's what the other spies told me in they're own communication crystal after all they are a little bit suspicious of him" said Melfina

Hearing this Kaido smiled wide revealing his canine teeth to see

"Looks like I have to clean out the group again!" He said

"Where is he?" Asks Kaido

"The other merchant told me that he'll be arriving in Screa tomorrow" answered Melfina

"Alright I know what I'll be doing tomorrow! I'll show them the consequences on betraying me" said Kaido

****************

As they talked Rebecca found an inn for the and rented out three different rooms

After they settled down they met up downstairs and had their fill on lunch after all they've been on the road for at least ten days

After their fill they immediately heads out the inn and plans to explore the city

"We're planning to go to this city's adventurers guild" said Rebecca

But before they could head out a carrier stops infront of them and the door opened up

"Ugh! A noble in this rusted inn?" Reacted Rebecca

When the door opened a head that came from a lady poked out

"Rebecca? Is that you?" She asks

"Ugh! Lilith?" Replied Rebecca

Hearing Rebecca's reply the woman in her late teens bursted out of her carriage and hugs rebecca tightly

"Rebecca it's been so long! I missed you! Even if your not your house successor doesn't mean that you can just leave your home just like that!" Said the woman named Lilith

"What!? Wait? Me noble no way" said Rebecca with sweat trickling down her face

This time the Lilith looked up to her in puppy eyes and said

"You.... You don't remember me?.... I'm your best bud! How can you forget me?" Said the teary eyed Lilith

Seeing this Rebecca gave up.on pushing her away

"Fine! Fine! Do what you want!" Said Rebecca

After that she looked back and saw kaido and Melfina mumbling something

"So Rebecca-dono is a noble born.... I see" said Melfina

"No wonder her old room and the way she spent her seems like a rich kid! This explains a lot" said Kaido

"What explains a lot?" Thought Rebecca

But on the other hand Kaido thought of something really clever

"A noble i see.... Looks like I have to get this nobles trust and plant my roots in their society" he thought

As he straightened up Kaido walks towards them remembering some of the formal etiquette of his old world

"Greetings my lady!" Bowed Kaido

This time not only Melfina but also Rebecca stared at Kaido dumbfounded as if they're seeing a ghost

For them a formal Kaido is nowhere ordinary

"Ugh! Kaido? Formal? Impossible!" Thought Rebecca

"Kaido-sama?" Exclaimed Melfina

But for Lilith this caught her attention

"For a person, you don't dress like an commoner nor and adventurer especially noble but your manners are spot on! Tell me what do you want?" Asks Lilith

Hearing this Kaido smirked in his mind

"My lady! If you would allow me to form at least a little bit connection with you and I will assure you that my ways would greatly benefit you!" Said Kaido with a soft smile as if he's saying that he's a god sent pure hearted prince charming

"Hehehe! those acting role play as a noble from my world pays off" he thought to himself

"Oh my! Your quite bold!... But I like your guts" exclaimed Lilith

This time Melfina stated at Kaido as if she lost her master and for Rebecca she saw Kaido as an imposter

"Tell me! Tell me your name first and I'll decide" said Lilith

"Names Riruko Kaido my lady!"
