章 37: Chapter 37 - Arrival in Capital.

'Ah, is he an idiot? Didn't he notice that the guy is still alive? ' After admiring that battle for some time, Viaric had brought down the leader of the bandits but approached the man without thinking.

And of course, he was attacked.

"Enough."

But without having the intention of letting him be killed, I ended up leaving Lisandra inside the carriage and ran to the man, preventing him from hitting Viaric. It was easy to do that because of my agility.

"Thank you thank you very much." After I let go of the man's hand and made sure he was dead, Viaric began to thank me deeply, he looked like a frightened child and was sweating cold.

"It was nothing, can we continue the journey now?" I told Viaric, I waited for his response for a while, but ...

"As if we could travel now, haven't you seen the state that my companions and I are in?" I'm the one who asks, didn't you see that I'm strong when I helped you? We just need to continue the journey, we will not be in danger.

"Don't worry, you won't have to fight anyone for a while."

"But it's not just that, we also need to collect the bodies."

"Look, but if it's just that, I can do this, where do I put them?" I asked Viaric, and he pointed me out to a place near the road, he told me to put the bodies there, lined up.

And that's what I did.

After finishing, I talked to him and it was decided that when we reached the capital, we would go to the city guard building and let them know about it. Since they are bandits, they may be in demand.

If that were the case, the guard would give us a great reward.

But even if they are not wanted by the guard soldiers, it seems that it is ethically wrong for you to kill people and leave them in the middle of the road. Even if they are bandits, not warning about it and just leaving the bodies like that, can be frowned upon by soldiers.

Not that it's a crime to leave them like that, but it's usually not done. The bodies are at least collected from the roads.

"Okay, now that we've decided everything, and the bodies are organized, can we go?" Again I asked Viaric, and now also the coachman who had left the carriage.

Lisandra had decided to stay in the carriage since she doesn't know how to handle blood very well.

"Yes, I think there is no problem, but what about that, do you know what it is?" Viaric replied with another question as he looked at the sword in my hand. It is the same sword that changed the shape that the woman was using before.

He did seem curious about this sword, and to be honest, it was no big deal.

When I tried to put mana on the sword and try to use it, nothing happened, so I could only assume that what the woman wore was some kind of skill she had, but since I hadn't looked at her Status before she died, I don't know what skill it is that.

Viaric looked very disappointed when I said that, he was hoping it was a kind of powerful magical artifact that would be worth a lot of money. I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it wasn't this time.

And after Viaric was comforted by Danan and Daleof, we could finally continue our journey.

The three adventurers still looked quite tired, and Viaric had suffered a lot of body injuries, but they didn't seem to mind and agreed to continue the trip.

This was decided after a conversation between the three, I felt a look in me, but I ignored it.

######

It's been a few days of travel, and apparently, we would arrive in the capital today, or so the coachman and the adventurers said.

'A week goes by really fast, doesn't it?' I thought we would be bored during the trip, but it seems that it was not the case. We were both enjoying the trip very well.

It also seems that we arrived earlier than expected, normally it would take more than a week.

And then, after a few more hours of travel, the capital wall began to appear in my vision. Accompanying me, Lisandra also stuck her head out the carriage window to look at the city.

A wall of almost thirty meters was there, so we couldn't see anything inside, just a few white towers, which extended beyond the wall, it was certainly the castle. That vision alone was enough to leave Lisandra out of breath. Well, I was already used to similar views.

Our village had no protection other than fences, so it was understandable that she was so amazed by these huge walls.

"It looks like we're going to take a little longer than expected, the queue is long today." The coachman warned us as the carriage stopped.

I looked out again and noticed a huge line of people and carriages.

"Did something happen? Have so many people here..." Even though it is the capital, the queue is too long, we were a considerable distance from the capital, and the more time that passed, new people joined the queue.

"Hmm, it seems that in a few days the National Fair will start. Many traders are arriving, and of course, people interested in the products also arrive all the time."

Isn't that strange? It's almost a week before classes start, the capital will have a Fair right now? Well, I think it must be after classes start.

"I understand." A National Fair, isn't it? So there must be people from all over the country in this place. I hadn't heard about it, but it seems to be an event worth taking a look at, I think we arrived at the right time.

And after a long time, yes, many hours spent in line, it was our turn to enter the city.

"Can I know the reason for the visit? Maybe you came to the Fair?" One of the guards approached making asking simple to the coachman, he did not seem to have noticed the adventurers inside the carriage, but when Viaric introduced himself, the guard seemed to have recognized him.

"We are returning from a mission, we are escorting these two children, they are here for the school entrance ceremony," Viaric said to the guard, and responding respectfully, the guard allowed us to enter.

Hmm, so did he have a certain influence in this city? Perhaps they are stronger adventurers than I thought they were. But after the difficulty they had to deal with those bandits, I couldn't accept they were skilled.

And after we passed through the gate, a large city came into view, as well as a large castle in the middle of the city. A luxurious castle with a white structure and many windows scattered on all sides.

Even being a long distance away, I could see every detail because of the castle size, it was huge, I had never seen a castle this big before.

A busy city like this brings me a little nostalgia.
