《The hitman summoned as a hero》Chapter 3: A place to hide-old
Advertisement
After days walking we arrived at a town during the day, it was small but it had a clothes shop. I entered along with the jelly pudding and the little girl in the shop, the people were looking me strange, maybe because I was half-naked or maybe because I was with a living jelly pudding. Anyway, we entered and we bought, clothes for me and for the girls with the money that I got from the soldiers in the prison. I had ten gold coins. And I bought a pink and white dress for the little girl and a raincoat for the jelly pudding for two gold coins. After we went to find an inn, we needed a cheap one. Also, we needed to sleep and eat well. The girl didn't eat for a long time and I only ate bugs since I escaped.
After a short time, I discovered that I could read. First I didn't realise about it but now I realised it. I had even with more questions in my mind. Anyway, we found an inn, it wasn't bad. It had a restaurant, a guild and a bar on the lower floor and free rooms to sleep four gold coins a day on the high floor. It wasn't bad except that the rooms were for a single person. When I entered the room I saw that it had expensive furniture, decorated walls, a small bed and a window. A medieval style but it was a place to hide and sleep. It was still day so I left the jelly pudding taking care of the little girl and I went to eat. In the restaurant, they were serving good-looking food. Fried shrimps, rice, butter garlic crabs, even hamburgers and Pelmenis. Of course, they had more plates on the card but I decided to eat the Pelmenis, I really loved to eat it. I ordered it to the waitress and after an hour she came with the Pelmenis. It smelt incredible so immediately I tasted it and it was delicious. I felt like if I was in Russia again. I even ordered to have seconds.

When I was full I paid two gold coins and I went back to the room. In the room I saw the little girl in the corner, I think that she woke up and she got scared after seeing the jelly pudding with her. In that moment I closed the door, I put the lock on the door, I grabbed the little girl and I put her in the bed. After I asked my questions. I asked why I was in this world, why she was in prison and a lot more. First, she didn't want to talk but after she told me everything. I was in Edonia, a kingdom governed by the king Alf the third. The asshole king is how I called him. After she told me that the jelly pudding was called slime in the new world. For me she was a living pudding but anyway I didn't ask any more about the names. Then she told me that the king threw her in jail because she summoned me. I was a failure for the king and it was her punishment. Suddenly she started to cry. I didn't know what to do. All I could do in that moment was to hug and let her calm herself. I didn't know if it was good or bad but I felt that I needed to do that. And the jelly pudding or slime, whatever, hug us too. She was like a human, she had feelings. After the night came and I decided to sleep on the floor. The little girl and the slime needed the bed more than me. I was already trained to sleep in any place so I didn't care that much about it. Of course, they insisted that I should sleep on the bed but I rejected.

In that moment I was sure that I was becoming soggy. In the past I would have killed them, long time ago, to be alone and without problems but now I couldn't. Something didn't let me kill them. I was feeling strange about it so I went to sleep quickly. I didn't want to think anymore about.
The next day I asked more questions to the little girl about why I could read, write and talk in another language, about the darkness and about the slime. She told me that her magic lets me read, write and talk. It was incredibly useful. After she told me that the darkness was the army of the angel of the death. He along with his minions wanted to govern the entire world. Then she told me that the purple slime was one of his minions. And that she was a powerful minion of the angel. I was a bit confused but I understood, looking at her face, that it was bad. I told her that nothing was going to happen and I calmed her. She didn't need to be of her, she was friendly and kind. At least she looked like that to me. After I asked her name. She was shy about it but she ended telling me her name. Rodelia Savas. I told her that it was cute and she got embarrassed.
After I told her to come with me to eat while the slime was still sleeping. She didn't eat for a long time so she must be hungry. When we were in the restaurant I told her that she could eat what she wanted. In that moment she was so happy. We ordered some toasts and the special menu. After thirty minutes the waitress came with the toasts and the special menu. The special menu was like a menu for kids. It had rice, potato chips and fish. I simply eat my toasts but with more happiness than usual because I was seeing her eating happily. Even if she has been tortured and betrayed.
After I paid two gold coins and we went to the room. In the room, I told them my plan. My plan was to go to see the angel of the death and to be his ally. Of course, I would be his ally for money. When Rodelia heard that she wanted to stop me. She was scared and she thought that we were going to die. I told her to be calm, that nothing could happen even if we could really die. Instead of trying to stop me the slime only smiled. Then I decided to call her Fio. Because she was purple and I couldn't continue calling her slime or jelly pudding.
After we prepared ourselves and we left the room and the town decided to see the angel. Perhaps we were going to die but we needed to try. Also, we didn't have money, equipment or weapons so it could go wrong but we had hope.
