Chapter 45
“Ethan, I can say the your complexion looks much much better than the last time I saw you. But…”
Eliza mumbles as she can't believe how I was still eating up till now
“I did told you to not make your stomach be surprised by the food you take. Didn't I?“
The four people around me didn't look at Eliza as they tried to avoid her gaze. If not for the fact that this food taste delicious and that it didn't hurt my belly at all since it just makes me feel more refreshed, I wouldn't be able to finish half of this.
Now I wonder how much harto did they used just to buy all of it.
Burp
My eyes widened as I let out those sounds breaking the heavy atmosphere.
Laughter can be heard surrounding the place. I also can't help but let out a smile. It wasn't something that I expected to happen. But… I am thankful… that there are people who is genuinely concerned about me
Speaking of people who genuinely concerned about me, here comes the one I was looking for. Fiolle came with lots of burns in her clothe. Huffing as she was catching her breath, I offered the glass of water but she took the pitcher and clug it in one go
”Hah… thanks…“
She huff and sat on the bed and soon let herself lay on the mattress.
”It seems like you had it tought“
I mumbled as we all look at how tired she was
”There… are lots of pest to clean up… everywhere… there are some pest left… it was… annoying“
She said as her eyes are now close. Looking at her state, she doesn't seem to have any serious injury. That was a good thing. It would be bad if I would use that skill again. Maybe if she have an injury just like what Saypher had, I would be bones by now.
Looking at everyone, I had no idea that I can have a sight like this. Everyone was having fun even if it was a disaster just a while ago. I had no idea how the scenarios in the game would proceeds as if they are catching something, but… all and all… I was filled with anticipation to finish this game… I also wonder what would happen in the end. Will the life we had before exist again?
I just hope that… at the end of this journey… we find the answers that we are looking for…

”We would like to apologize to all of you again. For ruining your building. We do hope that the help we provide would make up to those we caused“
Saying this words as formality, I had no intentions of apologizing for intending to kill them. Although it was true that they are just doing their job. Intending to kill me and Fiolle is just a task given to them coming from the higher ups. They did that not because they wanted to. They did that because that is what they need to do. To follow the orders of those higher than them.
Sadly, I sympathize with them. To do something that you don't want to do, to do something that is not from your heart… to do something just because you have no other choices but to do that… isn't it like a characters in the game?
I started to feel bad about it.
”It is us who wants to deeply apologize. We also want to thank you for saving us from that disaster“
Lenro was the one speaking. As the person having the highest rank in their troupe, he is a kind person even if he is that famous. It would really be a sad situation if he would die just because of some commotions. Looking at Jinre who was supposed to be the one to kill Lenro, in the game… the outcome of everything was different than what it was supposed to be.
Maybe that kind of thing is a good news…
”Are you really sure you would go with them?“
He asked Fiolle who already fixed her mind that she would go with us.
”The moment that situation happened, I am no longer part of the cavalry that was protecting this place. The last help I had given was an act due to my will and not due to my mission and obligation. I hope you all understand. But even if you don't, my decision will never be changed“
She did had a deep grudge on them. But what can we do, no matter who looks at it, she was wronged and none of them even had the courage to side her. Even those kids that believe in her faced that fate just because none of the people inside this building had courage to save them.
They would be more glad to see someone die just to not let the command given to them be broken.
Is that really how the world supposed to go?
What a bullshit…
”We have to go“
Saypher mumbled. He was not into formalities. Even I am not into it but… it would be a great misunderstanding if we will just go without even telling it to them.
They may had given us a cold shoulder in our first meeting but I can say that they did help us a lot. In the place to rest as well as materials for treating wounds, they even provided us food. Their courtesy and way of asking forgiveness already settled the tabs.
Maybe if one day, they would again do things as bad as taking our lives, maybe by then I would consider fighting them again with lives at stake.
”Alright, let's go“
And that was where our journey continued
.

”This place have no people nor creatures around. I can sense that it is a safe place to stay at“
Another day ended, on our way we fought with monsters and some weird creatures. I can say that each one of them gain a lots of level ups. As for me, I did my best to catch up with them and be strong. After all, right where we are heading, was the academy of where my sister was studying.
The last time I remembered seeing her was… so long ago. But even if we didn't meet much, she would always bring something in front of my door. Now that I remembered it, why didn't I treated her much better?
Maybe I can see her tomorrow, once we arrived at the academy. It was a campus that was big and wide…
”The fire is already set“ Migo started as Kiel and Kheina helped preparing the improvised bed. Fiolle and Saypher was still on look out.
Those two really have it hard for themselves. But being sure is being safe.
”The meal is being prepared. Just wait a bit more“
I stated as I continued cooking some sort of who knows. After all, if they don't like it, they would just buy some in the system. That was a difference when it comes to extras and main characters.
Extras have it way hard than the main characters.
I envied they for having that much harto but… I can say that me having a thousand and two hundred sixty five is not bad. I saved so much.
«Current balance: 1,265 harto»
«Ethan Shujinko Level 32»
I also did a good job in gaining this level. But compared to the others…
«Saypher Marcus Level 65»
«Migo Primeo Level 46»
«Kheina Archerr Level 47»
«Kael Zion Level 51»
«Fiolle Magalhaes Maeves Level 60»
Who would have thought that I am lacking in such a large gap??
A large explosion was heard which caught my attention. I was shocked at the point that I even stand up in a hurry.
”Hey what happened??!“
