《Judah Judas Adventures》The art of deliveries
Advertisement
After a few minutes, I arrived at our house. I get off that horse with the fishing net filled with wolves corpses and I drag them to a little building where Diana is repairing Fiona sword and she is preparing her crossbow or is even using it for her hunter job. I entered that building and I saw Diana working on something. But before I was about to ask her what she is working on, she turned around and she sees me with the fishing net of wolves corpses.
"Judah. Good work!" she comes to and she takes that fishing net filled with rare wolves. Then, she looks at me and starts to ask a question. "You caught seven? Impressive. You don't see that many wolves in that forest zone."
Diana puts that fishing net down and she is looking at those corpses. I saw reaction started to change, from cheering it becomes kinda disappointing. I asked her what is happening and she looked at me and asked.
"Those wolves had the blue stones while you were killing them?"
"No," I respond honestly to Diana. "We didn't see a single stone in them while we were killing them. They were important ?"
"Yes. Those stones can create the animal powers for weapons and even for armour, but eh... with their fur and their meat I can easily take 35 or even 40 coins. Thanks anyway... By the way, where is Fiona ?"
"She said she is going to deliver the horse to the stable at the palace."
"Okay. Can you go and do me a favour if you are still here ?"
"Sure," I replied to Diana, who takes from a pocket a knife and he handed me. " Can you deliver this knife to a house that is located 45 meters away ?"
"Yes, but... What were you doing with this knife ?"
"I had to repair it for a customer. "
"Wait. Are you a blacksmith ?"
"Not really. The second job I owned is just fixing weapons to the adventurers who used them in a bad way."

"Oh. I see. Well, then. We will see you later." I say after I left the house and headed to the house which Diana told me a few seconds ago.
After a few minutes of walking around the city, I arrived at the house which has ordered the knife to Diana to fix. I looked at the house and I wasn't that impressed because the house that one customer lives in is a small one, has lots of damage to the walls of his house, an old carriage who is probably broken for even one decade and in the backyard, I saw some weapons who are so broken that not even a blacksmith could repair them.
I entered the unknown house, I go straight to the door and after a few steps, I stopped in front of the door and there I did three knocks. After those knocks on the door, a person from the interior said he is coming, so I wait until that person will arrive. It did not take long until that person arrived and I saw the person who is living in this house who could fall at any moment. The person was that squire who was dressed in an orange robe who I meet a few days ago.
"Hello! Can I help you? Wait... You look familiar." says that boy dressed in that orange robe to me. "Y-You are the kid who is working for Fiona ?"
"Yes. I am Judah. And you are the customer who orders a knife to be repaired, right ?"
"The knife... Ah. My master order that the knife be repaired, but he asked a girl named Diana. Do you work for her?"
"Not exactly. You see, Diana and Fiona are living together."
"They live together ?!"
"Yeah. But they are sisters... Is it normal for two grown sisters to live together in a house without parents, right ?"
"Oh. For a second I thought those two were a couple." says the fat dude relieved to me.
"So... Where is your master ?" I said after I looked around for the guy who ordered it this knife to be repaired.

"My master is not home yet. But I can pay for this knife. How much does it cost anyway?"
"Diana hasn't told me about the price earlier, so... They will probably negotiate later."
I handed the repaired knife to that guy, and after that, I leave his home and heading to my house walking the same path I did before arriving here.
I walk for about a few minutes the same path, I was walking past a few grown-up people and kids my age who were busy doing their jobs or running errands. Right, when I was about to turn left I saw on the streets two carriages who were in a hurry and were so close to hitting some people. I looked scared at those two because, on their roof, two guys were fighting with swords. I was about to use my wand but I saw on the street something I did not expect, Fiona and Marcus riding their horses and following those carriages. My first thought was to shoot the one who was fighting at those carriages, but I had another idea since Fiona and Marcus were present there. I took my wand, I aimed at Fiona and I cast the spell named "Run". That spells can make every human/animal/goblin/dwarf/animal-human double their speed. I wasn't aiming for Fiona or Marcus because they weren't running, I was aimed at their horses. The reason is simple, the horses were the ones who are running.
When the spell has hit the horses they galloped much faster than before. I didn't see those two reactions because of the distance but I can probably imagine they were confused about how did their horses have started to double their speed. I put my wand back and I decide to leave the scene and heading to my home to report the duty I had to Diana. I just hope she won't be mad at me because I didn't take the money for the knife.
After other long minutes of walking, I arrived at my house where I live and works for Fiona as a squire, I saw Diana leaving the little building where she repairs the weapons or takes the fur, meat and stone from the animals who had captured. Diana saw me coming, she looks at me until I entered the property and comes to ask me.
"How it worked ?"
"Alright," I respond to Diana's question.
"Did you took the money?"
"Yeah... I didn't... because the owner wasn't at the house when I arrived, but his squire was there, so I left the knife at him, but I told him to ask your customer about the price."
"Good. Now I have to go somewhere to resolve some business. If you are hungry, I prepared some good soup with chicken." she takes her backpack and leaves the house, then she goes to her left carrying her backpack.
I turn around, walk to the door, pushed the door and entered the house. Then, I go straight to the kitchen, I took an empty bowl and I was using to pour the chicken soup that Diana made. After I almost filled the entire bowl with soup, I headed with the bowl at the table, then I took a spoon from the place where bowls were stored and I started to dig in. The first bite of this soup was the one that made me realize this soup was good like the other I was eating since I moved here to work for Fiona. I took the best choice to move here because Diana cooking is probably the best in this Kingdom.
After I ate the entire soup in the bowl, I washed the dishes with cold water for a few minutes. When I finished that part, I go straight to my room. There I put my armour at my place and decide to change into my pyjamas and to sleep early because tomorrow morning, Fiona and I are going to participate in our first war, which will probably be not a nice adventure to have while you are still ten years old who can barely use low-level spells and barely know anything about your boss.
