After staying in that town for two days to relax and finally being given a chance to stretch my feet, we headed off to the capital.
In a sense, this was like a final al before an execution.
A little bit of fun before I was thrown into the whirlpool of politics that was the capital.
In a sense, this was the bit of kindness that Scar was showing .
But the capital did await and the one waiting for us was the king…so we had to go in the end.
The town that we picked Scar up in wasn't that far from the capital in the first place. It was considered the closest town to the capital and only existed because of a hot spring that was found there.
So this was by all ans a tourist attraction.
We had fully enjoyed the hot springs though I did receive a few strange looks in the hot springs itself. Especially towards my lower half which I did my best to cover up…
We had set off in the morning, so when we arrived in the capital, it was already the evening and the gates were about to close.
We were among the last ones that were allowed to line up to enter the capital.
There were others behind us and even others in front of us that were rejected, but we had been allowed to enter the queue because of the special orders that we had. The guards that were about to chase us away stopped when they saw the token that Scar flashed them.
There was a look of understanding and they waved us into the queue to the dismay of the other travelers.
There were even so that had wanted to argue about this, but the guards quickly sent them away without any qualms. They even threatened to use force and lock them up if they kept complaining.
So as they left, they couldn't help looking at us with strange looks as if they were wondering who we were.
But these were commoners, so it didn't matter if they were curious.
They just headed to the inns that were outside of the city for those that couldn't make it into the city gates in ti.
Of course, there was one that had snuck into our carriage during this ti.
Scar and Shaka had wanted to do sothing about them, but I stopped them. Both of them looked at with confused looks, but I just simply shook my head to show them that it was fine.
Since they didn't want to make a fuss, they decided to just go along with what I had in mind.
As I noticed the slender figure hiding in the back, I couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.
That was because no matter how she tried to hide herself, I would recognize her imdiately.
I had seen her many tis in the ga world and had even seen her naked CG, so I would recognize her body anywhere.
For now though, I will keep silent.
As we moved closer and closer to the city gate, the one that was hiding in the back seed to get more and more nervous that she would get discovered by the guards.
However, when it was our turn, the one hiding in the back realized that all of this worry was useless.
When the guards ca up, the captain personally ca over to inspect our carriage.
But in truth, all he did was wait for Scar to flash the sa thing as before and then he passed sothing over to Scar.
With that, we were allowed to enter the city without any trouble.
I kept the carriage going for a bit before stopping beside an alley and saying, "I think it's ti for you to get out, isn't it?"
When the one hiding in the back heard this, she couldn't help trembling.
She had thought that she had hidden herself quite well that no one would be able to find her, but it turned out that this wasn't the case. They had known about her all along and had chosen to help sneak her in.
Since they had been so frank and kind, there was no need for her to show any suspicion towards them.
The slender figure jumped out of the carriage and gave a slight bow before she said in an oriole like voice, "Thank you for helping . If there is a chance, I will repay you for this favour."
When she looked back up, she couldn't help being shocked by the face that was in front of her.
The two old n she completely ignored, but the handso young face in front of her swept her off her feet.
She couldn't help stumbling a bit before asking, "This sir, may I ask what your na is?"
I just shook my head with a smile and said, "If we're fated, we will et again."
The last ti I had used that line, it bit in the butt…would it be the sa this ti?
But without hesitation, I started driving the carriage away.
As we were leaving, Scar couldn't help narrowing his eyes to look at the slender figure.
The confused look on his face slowly started to change as if filled with more and more shock.
He turned back to look at before asking, "Did you know that it was her?"
I slowly gave a nod.
Scar looked at with a very strange look as he asked, "You've never been to the capital before, so how did you know?"
I just revealed a bitter smile without explaining anything.
After all, I had seen her in the ga before…
I had not only seen her countless tis in the ga, I had even seen her naked CG in the ga…but it wasn't as if I could say that out loud.
Scar just looked at with the sa strange look and asked, "Are you sure we should have left her there?"
This ti, I gave a nod and said, "Her guards are already here, so there's no need to worry."
Scar looked at Shaka and he gave a nod to confirm this.
Then he gave a sigh and said, "Let's forget this ever happened, understood?"
Both and Shaka gave a nod in response.
