Another World Peace Creator Magician-Chapter 43 Adventurer Not Always Nice
"I heard that the village in the west got destroyed"
"I heard that too, what is the cause again?"
"The Magical Beast obviously, I heard the adventurer receive a quest request to hunt the Magical Beast, but how come they're still around in the wild? and even destroy a village like that"
"You are right, they just fooling around instead of taking the quest"
Hey, I can totally hear your conversation you know? they are trying talk in a low voice and I tried to ignore it and not to be bothered by it and continue to drink my warm milk, but, it seems that they are still at it.
"This place is good isn't it Erwin?"
Uncle Alto suddenly popped out in front of me, I guess he already ordered the food and now we just need to wait for the food.
I can see uncle Alto's look becoming more ease, not like before when he always looks bothered and concerned by something when he starts to talk about the magical beast in the wild and now, I see his concern loosen up already, and I believe he doesn't need to be worried about anything anymore, both for me and Ilya-nee.
"Hey uncle Alto, is there any other place other than a southern forest that got an increase in the number of the magical beasts?"
"*Cough..*Cough.."
"Uncle.. Are you are alright?"
"Wait...*cough.. I'm fine, I'm fine...*cough.."
You don't look you are fine though, You, uncle, suddenly choking on the drink like that, how is that fine duh? this is no good.
"Why are you suddenly*cough.. asking that?"
Please stop with your coughing already uncle Alto, please calm yourself down first.
"Ah no, just, I'm curious like, it's impossible right? for this magical beast issue to just affect southern forest"
"[Sigh..] Well like you just said, I heard that this crisis isn't only affecting the southern zone, but also west and north side of the kingdom got affected"
"Are they gonna be fine?"
"Well I'm not entirely sure about that, you see, nobles have their own territory, so I guess they will protect it, I think"
"Thanks for waiting, here's your food, please enjoy"
"Ohh.. Thanks, Rina-chan.."
"If you need anything, just call me okay? don't try to tempt our chef again"
She winked and then leave, tempting their chef? who did that? I'm about to eat my first bite on the beef stew and the rice then suddenly I realized.
Wait a minute, didn't uncle Alto just ordered this food by himself?
My eyes narrowed and I let out a long deep sigh and stare at uncle Alto.
"What is it?"
"Nothing"
Uncle Alto tilts his head in confusion and continues eating his food, we are just having a good dinner time and uncle Alto pays for the meal, I honestly don't want to be a burden for him, but he keeps insisted so I have to gladly accept his offer.
Well, it's not like I have that much money with me either, Ilya-nee brings some with me because she thought that I will stay in Elis-nee places and not staying in the capital for a long time.
It's a 2 weeks worth of money I guess, but since uncle Alto always said that I don't need to spend money on meal and can use it on whatever else I want, this money won't be wasted in any use, but I think buying Ilya-nee a souvenirs won't hurt anyone isn't it?
We finish our dinner when almost 7 pm and the store is still crowded, I guess this place is sure well-known among people around here eh, our seat that we just left already got claimed by two people who just came to the store.
Maybe uncle will feel the cold again if I don't cast a [ Cold Protection ] to him now, but when we leave the store, uncle Alto doesn't look like he's feeling cold on his body.
"It's not too cold isn't it Erwin? this much warmer compared to when before we enter the store"
Well, I actually bit of resistance to cold already honestly, so I can't really tell the difference, but, if uncle Alto is the one who said it then, it might be true.
With that, I guess I don't need to give uncle Alto a [ Cold Protection ] then.
Me and uncle Alto take our time to walk back home, we enjoy the walk more because the air isn't too cold and it's perfect because there were also more people going out their house and the store around looks more lively.
"Hey Erwin, want to go to that tall building over there?"
Uncle Alto points out at the building that looked like a tower, it's not too tall compared to the tower I saw on that higher place near the castle, but this one at least is higher compared to other buildings around here.
"It's not too far, the view is cool there"
Uncle Alto pulls my hand and we walk towards the tower, uncle Alto said we are gonna take a shortcut so we might get there faster, so then I follow uncle Alto from behind and we go in the alleyway I have never been before.
"We almost there"
I look up and see that the tower looks closer, I guess in the next turn and we are there.
"Come on just ignore that damn rule and go with us again, this time I brought more people to defeat the magical beasts, pay for your mistake!"
"No, please leave me alone, I don't want to see more people die.. noo.."
"Just if you didn't run that day we can take down that pack of wolves and only get home with the worst case to happen to us is just injuries, not lives of someone"
"Noo....Let go of me..."
Uncle Alto stop his steps and I do the same, uncle Alto might notice that voice because it's the same voice as that Spiky-haired guy we met before.
"Let's go home for now Erwin, okay?"
I look at uncle Alto in disbelief, he should've notice that there was a voice of a girl there, she might get in trouble right now and uncle? he just wanted to leave them be and not helping her?
I grit my teeth and apologize to uncle Alto, I run to the direction of where the voice come from and found the spiky-haired guy I met before holding the girl's hand but the girl seems to try to let go of her hand from the spiky-haired guy.
