Chapter 69: Return to the Hotel

After leaving the market, the group of four returned to the hotel to rest. When I came to the vicinity of the hotel, I found that there were more than a dozen human horses riding in the stables next to the hotel. When they saw the horses, the four of them knew that there were new guests coming to the inn.

Entering the store, Walker is about to greet his uncle, only to find that his uncle is talking to a human.

"No, I said no, no, no. It's useless to think about it. When Vane and his group approached, they suddenly heard Walker's uncle shouting loudly, and then saw Walker and the others preparing to go upstairs, so they greeted, "Hey, Walker." Are you back? What fun toys did you buy? ”

"Oh, uncle. I'm an adult, and I'm not interested in toys anymore. Walker replied immediately.

"Yes, yes. I know. I remember when you were younger, every time I returned to the clan land, I would buy some fireworks. You little ones are as happy as little piglets when they see the fireworks. Walker's uncle laughed and missed it. Walker only rolled his eyes, and the three Vane looked at Walker in surprise. It's hard to imagine what Walker was like as a child.

Seeing Vane's three surprised eyes, Walker suddenly said unhappily: "What kind of eyes are you three?" ”

"No, nothing." The three of Vane spoke in unison. Just the words of the three of them, Walker obviously had a look of disbelief.

"Alright, let's hurry up, there's something to do in a while." Seeing Walker's obvious disbelief, Vane immediately changed the subject.

Walker was stunned, he didn't know what else was going on, so he followed him upstairs and asked Vane, "What else is going on?" ”

"Of course, it's to buy food and spices to eat on the road." Vane replied as a matter of course.

After hearing this, Walker suddenly said, "No, it's only a day's journey from here to the next town." You don't need to prepare anything. ”

"I know, but I have to prevent some surprises. After all, the unexpected is unexpected, isn't it? Vane shook his head and insisted. Because Wayne believes that at all times, it's always good to be prepared. This is also the quality or habit that a good DND mage should have.

"Well, it won't cost a few anyway." Seeing Vane insist, Walker knew it was impossible to convince him, so he compromised.

On the other side, the humans who were talking to the innkeeper, who was Walker's uncle, saw Walker and the others go upstairs, turned to Walker's uncle and asked, "Who were those just now?" ”

"That's my nephew, my own nephew. What's wrong? Walker's uncle replied unhappily, "I warn you, boy, don't try to hit my nephew's attention. Otherwise, I'll let you know what the consequences of angering a dwarf are. ”

"No, I'm not talking about the dwarves just now. It's the High Elves, who look like they're still High Elf toddlers, right? The human asked, waving his hand.

"yes, so what? Do you want to face the wrath of the High Elves? The magic of those guys can make life worse than death. Walker's uncle continued to warn.

"I just wanted to ask when they came here. After all, as far as I know, the High Elves can only get here through Minahil Harbor, aren't they? The human continued.

"Yes, but they just arrived before you came in. It wasn't half a month ago when you asked. Walker's uncle said. He didn't want to answer any questions about Walker, but because he had already received the money, he had to answer the human question in front of him.

At this time, Vane and the others, who had already entered the room. Vane had already thought about it when he saw the horses in the stable. The symbols painted on those horses belonged to the human empire in the part of Arashi. So he told Barka and Kalia, "In a moment, someone may come to you and ask you about the road we have made here from the port of Minahir. All you have to do is answer them, saying, "You departed from the port of Minahir ten days ago." Things on the road, don't say anything but those spider things. Just tell them that nothing else happened along the way except for encountering spiders. Do you understand? ”

"Well, I see. I would tell them that we set out from Minahill Harbor ten days ago and nothing happened except for a spider attack. Kalia nodded to Vane.

Barka scratched his head and asked uncertainly, "Vane, why is that?" ”

"Boy Barka, if you don't want to die and the three of us die with you, you'd better do what Vane says." Walker understood what Vane meant by this time. When they came back just now, he recognized the sign on the military horse in the stable. It was clear that the human he had spoken to his uncle had something to do with the nobles of the caravan that the gnolls had attacked. This kind of thing between the nobles, it is better for them outsiders to stay away. Those human nobles are all people who eat people and don't spit out bones, and once the four of them fall into it, I'm afraid they won't even know how they died.

Hearing what Walker said so seriously, Barka was stunned. He nodded incessantly and said, "I know, I won't say anything." If they insist on asking, just tell them that you are arranging everything along the way, and if they have questions, just go to you and ask. ”

"Good, that's it. You two don't understand why, so it's best not to say anything. After listening to Barka's words, Vane nodded in satisfaction. As long as Barka and Kalia didn't say anything, Vane was sure to get the matter out of them.

After telling Barka and Kalia, Vane and Walker stayed in the room and waited. But after waiting for a long time, the sun was setting in the west. In another two hours, it would be dark and no one would come to them, so Walker and Vane knew that they might not have had their minds on them. What exactly it looks like depends on how Walker's uncle answers.

Tell Barka and Kaliya to lock the door and not to come out. Don't open the door if it weren't for the two of them, and Wayne and Walker came down the stairs together.

Inside the hall, the humans were eating around several tables. It's just that although these humans have been disguised as much as possible, their movements still have a very heavy, that kind of uniformity. Vane and Walker could easily feel that they were both trained and trained to be soldiers.
