《Arden's place》Chapter 31 - New people in the town!
Advertisement
The 6 tents on the side of the road were almost covered with snow last night. But strangely, there was no trace of this snow on or beside the tents. There was only snow around the tents.
Chai stretched and relaxed his muscles as he opened his eyes in the warm tent. He put on his cloak and left the tent. No one seemed to be awake. When the sun first rays hitting the whiteness before him, he saw that it was up to him to wake the others.
He took a deep breath and started shouting loudly.
“Thieves, wake up, thieves are stealing our gold.”
Marko jumped out of the tent with sleepy eyes. He looked around, but when he couldn't see anyone, he saw Chai staring at him with a smile on his face.
“Damn, Chai, I think we agreed that you would stop doing this.”
Ashley poked her head out of the tent and laughed when she saw the team captain's condition.
"Enough. I quit. Since you don't care about your money, you can manage your gold yourself."
Since all the money matters in the team were left to Marko, he was a little sensitive about money, and when he heard the word thief, he was always throw himself first. The reason for this sensitivity was that the team had all their money stolen when they first ventured into adventure. Of course, the team reminded Marko of this from time to time.
Dona came out of the tent and began to speak. She was fully dressed. She also looked like she had woken up at the same time as Chai.
“Come on, Marko, you can see Chai is joking.”
“Fuck his jokes. Hey Chai why don't you become a comedian? Huh”
"I would, but it doesn't pay as much as adventure," he said. Completely ignoring Marko's anger.

“You still continuing huh,” he started to walk towards Chai, when Edgar caught up with him.
"Captain, we need to eat and move, how about putting on your clothes?" said Edgar.
Marko stoped, shook his head and entered his tent.
Edgar turned to Chai as Marko entered his tent.
"Dude, can't you stop messing with him." he said with a smile.
“If he had woken up before me, he could have easily stopped it. Our captain needs a little nudge.” said Chai with a smile.
When the members of the team, John, who did not wake up despite all the noises, came out of the tent, everyone seemed to be ready for the journey.
After quickly eating a few slices of cold bread for breakfast, the team were ready to hit the road.
Chai held the magic pouch to the empty space in front of him.
Suddenly, a carriage appeared on the vacant lot in front of chai. This horse carriage was big enough for 6 people to sit comfortably. The team stepped on the carriage .
“John, it's your turn to clear the roads.” said Ashley.
Although there was no horse to pull the cart, the carriage began to move on the road cleared by John.
“Ashley, are you sure you're taking us on the right track? “
"Yep, we're in petra tonight or tomorrow," said Ashley.
“I hate going north in the winter,” said Dona
“What do you hate? Our tents and our heated carriage are operated by mana, not by horses. We have one of the most comfortable traveling in the winter.”
“Well, the cold weather is getting on my nerves.”
The horseless carriage continued on the road that John had cleared. It went on like this until noon. The car stopped at noon.

The team stopped for a hot meal.
“Dona, you're on duty to clear the roads this afternoon, my back is going to kill me,” said John, who had jumped out of the front of the carriage.
“Leave it to me, old man,” said dona.
“I'll see you after you sit in the front of the car in the cold,” said John, after a laugh.
After eating the hot stew cooked in the cauldron, the team took action again. They were nearing the end of their monthly journey.
"I hope it's worth the trip this time?" Marko
“I have a feeling I think we are in the right place .” said Chai.
“You said the same thing last time,” Edgar said.
Just as chai was about to answer, they heard Dona's voice in front of the carriage.
“Guys, we have a city ahead? I think we've come to a place called Petra."
The team stuck their heads out of the carriage window and looked at the city walls in front of them. The fact that it was covered with snow on all sides made the city walls more prominent.
As the carriage approached the Petra gate, the city guards stopped the carriage, which had no horses but was moving.
“Who are you and why you came to Petra.”
“We are a team of 6 wanderers and we came on a mission”
As soon as the door guard heard the team name, his eyes widened. The 6 wanderers team was a gem-level adventurer team. their name knewn in many parts of the world. It was a big deal for such a high-level team to come to Petra.
“Can I see the Adventurer cards?” he asked trembling.
Smiling, Marko pulled out his own card and showed it to the door guard.
“Welcome to Petra, you may pass.”
“Actually, we are tracking a caravan. The name of the person who leads the caravan is Kurt. They should have stayed in Petra about 2.5-3 months ago.” said
"I don't know, but usually a large crowd of people stay at the innkeeper Gordon's, you can visit him."
The guard turned around and described innkeeper Gordon's inn with his hand.
“Thanks and take it easy.” said Marko.
The door guard called out to his friend next to him.
“Hey Ed,”
"What happened? vik”
“I need to report something to the city council, where you'll have to look around a bit.”
“What are you going to report, something dangerous happened?
“Six Wanderers came to petra, my friend?”
"Whaté are you serious?"
After saying "I'll be back in half an hour", the gate guard started to run quickly towards the town square. This was big news. It was huge.

8 173The Lies They Told Me: Short stories from my life
Like many of my peers, I've discovered that life is not quite what I expected it to be. As I age, I've begun to find that many of the sayings and truths that my parents, authority figures, and friends have passed on to me were outright lies. Every person I know has been subject to the same interactions, which got me thinking, why not write a compilation of stores about my life experiences to date. I hope that this book will help all of us come to terms with the realities that we face today or deal with some of our deepest feelings about the past. Maybe these people lied to us and maybe they honestly believed the myriad of things they told us, but either way I think we can have a good laugh looking back and remembering the first times that we realized these things weren't true. I also hope that you can look back at the lies, or life lessons, that you've learned and can be inspried to own your stories and share them with others in a genuine way. Wiithout further ado, I hope that you enjoy the many short stories of my life that made me who I am today. These stories range from funny to down right surrel, so good luck on your journey!
