BXBX NOVEL Chapter 305 Enemy Kingdom
Daphnia looked at her son with her eyes narrowed then her eyes automatically went to both of the girls beside her.
She was silent throughout the whole journey trying to figure out, who was the person that peeped at them and the only clue she had was the Velian\'s words about her begin a girl.
"I\'m sorry about yesterday, after doing my work, I went back to the river to wash myself so I might have missed you two," Daphnia said with her face blushing hoping they would react to it with what they witnessed but both of them had straight faces and nodded their head like they heard the most normal thing.
\'Ahhh~ who cares, either way, I don\'t have any intention of hiding my relationships\'
In the end, Daphnia gave up and she saw how hard Velian was fighting throughout the whole journey.
Even though others helped him most of the time, he was able to single-handedly deal with most of the monsters that attacked them with the help of Amos and Kyla.
Both of them supported him to kill the remaining ones, so from their departure to until present, none of them even felt any kind of danger.
"We are close to the Montero Capital, we will use our team identification to enter the city," Kyla said and looked at the gate, but for some reason, the line that should be filling the entrance wasn\'t there.
Since Montero Kingdom used to be a city of business and economy, it was a strange scene to look at the gate that looked like a graveyard, but everyone in the team knew why there aren\'t any merchants or peddlers.
"Haha~ looks like we stole everything," Velian said in an awkward tone and asked Kyla to proceed with the identification so that they can enter the city.
Kyla and Amos approached the main gate of the Capital of Montero Kingdom, guarded by two stern-faced soldiers in full armour. The guards eyed them suspiciously, their hands resting on the hilts of their swords.
"State your business," one of the guards barked, his voice gruff and authoritative.
"We\'re here to enter the city," Kyla replied calmly, meeting the guard\'s gaze head-on. "We have urgent matters to attend to."
The other guard raised an eyebrow. "And who are you?"
Kyla hesitated for a moment before gesturing to the figures behind her. "These are my team members and we are one of A ranked adventure team. Some of them lost our identification on the way here, but take a look at mine."
They took her adventurer guild card and carefully observed it and made sure her identity is true, and soon they quickly returned it as it really belonged to an A-ranked individual.
The guards looked at Velian and Daphnia, who were standing a few feet behind Kyla and Amos. Velian had his arms crossed, his face set in a scowl, while Daphnia looked nervous and uncertain.
The first guard narrowed his eyes. "And who are they?"
Kyla stepped forward, her expression calm but determined. "As I said, they\'re my team members. We\'re on a mission to help the people of Montero Kingdom, and time is of the essence. Please, let us through."
"So did you come here to deal with that problem?" The guard who was standing next to the one that was questioning Kyla asked, as his face suddenly got us some colour.
"Uhhb~ yeah, we are here to deal with that, and it is really urgent, we can\'t let that do anything unwanted," Kyla went with the flow, and both of the guards looked at each other with satisfaction.
At the same time, the guards hesitated for a moment but eventually relented knowing that they are much more higher ranked than them.
"Very well," the second guard said, stepping aside to let them through. "But be warned – any trouble and we\'ll have you thrown out of the city and make sure you don\'t push yourself, it is really dangerous."
Kyla nodded her thanks, and the group made their way past the gate and into the bustling streets of the capital city. She breathed a sigh of relief – they had made it past the first hurdle. But there was still much work to be done if they were to complete their mission of accompanying this mother and son to the destination.
"What do you think about \'that\'?" Daphnia wanted to know, as it might affect their stay in here but Kyla also had no answers.
"Let\'s hit the guild branch, they might give us some information, looks like it is a serious problem look at this city, it\'s like a graveyard," Amos answered her question while Ellena also nodded her head.
"Last time, we came here, this city wasn\'t like this, people were really energetic and there were a lot of things to buy,"
Daphnia knew the reason why this kingdom look like this. It might have been \'that\' guards were talking about, but still after losing a battle and having to spend vast amounts of money and food on their campaign, it wasn\'t a surprise that they ended up like this.
\'Most probably, the same thing that happened in the Rapidclaw will happen again\'
She muttered and proceeded with the group and entered the guild, where people were drinking while some of them were already looking at the details of their quests.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ The guild was a massive, sprawling complex, with countless rooms and corridors stretching out in every direction. Kyla could feel her heart pounding in her chest as she stepped inside, taking in the sight of dozens of adventurers milling about, chatting and trading stories of their exploits.
Kyla approached the front desk, where a bored-looking receptionist sat dozing in the middle of the day. "Excuse me," Kyla said politely. "We\'re here to register as adventurers and take on a mission."
The receptionist looked up at Kyla and her team, taking in their ragtag appearance and lack of identification. "Do you have any proof of your abilities?" she asked sceptically.
But Kyla couldn\'t help but grin.
"We sure do!"
