It's been three days since that monster attacked. Since then too, this journey became really smooth. No bandits, no monsters, and no bad weather too. Well, there're monsters actually, it just those weren't magical monsters such as pack of wolves. Considering how proficient my kidnappers are, dealing with those doesn't seem like a problem at all.

Even the girl who I thought is just an extra member turned out to be pretty skilled too. With an archery skill, she quickly killed those fast running wolves during the night on a fast moving carriage too. She reminds me about an idol from archery club. Maybe her ability is pretty common in the fantasy world. However I'm sure she's no ordinary person too, knowing that she tagging along with the two. What's more she's calling the man 'sensei' so I won't be surprised if she could turn into shadow too.

Well, I hope that there won't be more situations that requires the girl take an action. Because whenever that happened, I had to be in the care of the boy which I felt uncomfortable. Unlike when he taking care of the other baby; when he taking care of me he constantly staring at me like I'm a weird thing in his point of view. So whenever I'm being handled to the boy I while the girl doesn't seem to busy I will purposely making a ruckus. Just I have careful not to pissed him or I will be silenced like the other baby with the drugged handkerchief whenever it crying like crazy. Scary... Isn't that thing is dangerous to an infant?

While my thoughts is wander off; I didn't realize that we're already in front of wall made of stone. It must be town's stronghold. We're entering it through the gate after the man paying entrance fee to the outpost guard.

The scenery inside of this town too exactly the same fantasy middle ages scene that I know. However even for fantasy world I couldn't see any people except human here so perhaps it's only human town.

It doesn't seem we're going to staying in the in instead we're going to camping in the travelers open field. Geez... why don't we take it easy and just staying in the inn overnight since we're in town. It's not like I hate the beautiful scenery of nature instead I'm very fond of nature. Maybe because I'm just an infant; I already missing the view ceiling.

...

Right... I nearly forgot that they're indeed my kidnapper. And if my hunch is right, they must be hired by someone. Yeah, so in future I must investigates this matter further.

... If I'm still alive of course... no no no... I must be alive. Be positive... positive...

After parking the carriage and set the camp; the man and the boy leave to buy some necessities or so I heard. As usual there's nothing I could do instead looking around.

There're many other carriages or wagons and people doing their own business around it. Among them, there's a group of five people that attract my attention. Each of them wear different kind of armor and bring different weapons. They seem to getting ready to set off in their journey today on this nice weather winter noon.

The only thing that I could think of is that they're an adventurer. Still, I can't be so sure because I'm still lacking any information about this world. Perhaps because of the influence of those online adventures games that I used to play during previous life, if there's adventurer job; I might have to consider to become one... it's sounds naive though. Oh well, then again it will be depends on my coming situations.

"Oh!"

Oh! What?

"Ouwww... you're awake... I'm sorry for neglecting you little one... here, why don't two play together."

Saying that with a gentle smile, she put me down beside the other baby. She sure has motherly warmth that even made the other baby who easily cry became fond to her even with so little interaction.

The other baby turns toward me then touching around my face before grasping my cheek with its uncut fingernails.

OUCH! That's hurts! Be careful would ya! My skin is sensitive too you know!

"Oops, poor thing... Did that hurt?"

Seen my jolted body, she caressing me. Yes miiss, Don't worryy I'm finee, Thaanks.

...

About two days ago I just found that the other baby is a male. I knew immediately sometimes after I awaked in those situations that I'm a female. It's really surprising but I think as a kid and as an elder there's not much difference between male and female so... I'm fine, I guess. The problem is as far as I know being female is troublesome in so many ways especially in the future when my body start to matured. Tch, unlike as a male which as long we're healthy we're good.

I'm sure that the other baby is my twin sibling, I don't know who's older though. I wonder if my soul is got the wrong vessel.

The sun has already set, the two who out for bought the necessities was back. Then after dinner each of them take a sleep in turn.

Yawn... Me too...

...

Hearing rustling sounds around me, I wake up. It's morning and I see them getting ready to leave, in a hurry aren't we. Not long after that, we set off from the town.

******

AAARRRGGGHHH!!! IT'S SO BOOORIIIING!!!

Come on! How longer until we reach our destination?! I'm starting to become mad here!

Up until now everything they did are: on the road, fight monster, enter town, leave then repeated these again and again.

Sigh... These all are really stressful for this puny head of mine. I already gave up on counting how many days has passed since then. Even the usual 'well, it can't be helped' attitude which I put on had already reached it limit. So if there's a gods in this world I would really like to curse them for transferring my teenager mind to this infant body. Even if there's not I would still like to curse anything which involved in made me like this. I don't care even it's useless thing to do.

I already too bored to care about anything around me except it's really endanger my life. Such as foreign scenery doesn't excite me at all; it's all just tree or stone covered in white. Even I ignored whether they do magic or fighting monsters lately.

It even made my kidnappers worries about me because all I do is just sleep and I didn't even give any damn reaction to whatever they do. I will make sure anyone involved to this apologizing to me in the future.

Today too doesn't seem any different. We just enter the town. Hmm? It's seem larger and nicer than previous town we had visited what's more there's a sea in the border of town, this is new sight for me since in this world.

After arriving and parking in the travelers open field as usual, a tidy dressed tough looking man in fine black tux who resemble a butler approaching my kidnappers. He seems around in his late thirties just like Hanzo; the ninja man; my kidnapper.

Then he asking my kidnappers to follow him to a lavishly decorated carriage which has bird and snake like insignia on it. Then my kidnappers ride it carrying us the babies. The butler then begin to driving it.

Hmm... I guess I would meet the mastermind behind my kidnapping at last.

...

About half an hour later we had arrived to our destination. The place is in front of gate of huge moderate yet luxurious mansion which backyard is directly facing off the sea. Woah... What a rich people.

"The Master is waiting for your arrival. Please come this way."

My kidnappers then follow the butler to the mansion.

After passing the gate, we could see many different kind of garnished flowers and trees and fountain in the middle of front yard. Although it's winter and the ground is covered by snow the flowers still looks as fresh as in spring. Actually it's my first time for seeing this kind of house directly so I'm rather in awe.

Entering the mansion everything is been styled in moderate design even so it's still screamed luxurious.

In the middle of living room, a good looking man around the same age as butler with purple hair who wears a nice aristocrat attire standing with a smile in front of staircase. In my opinion, he has an aura of those scheming bad guy.

A beautiful long haired blonde lady stand beside him who wears fine dress that match the man beside her. Damn, she's so beautiful. Somehow her appearance remind me of the woman who maybe is my mother that I saw first time after I woke up in this world. Although I already forgot how she looks like.

"Ah,I expect no less from you for arriving here on schedule."

He mad a hand gesture then the maids beside the room approaching us. My kidnappers then hand us the babies over to the maids. After that they leave the room by carrying us.

...

Right now me and the other baby is bathing by the maid in the tub with warm water.

Aahhh... It's so nice... After all I missing proper bath like this. It's unlike during the journey where we only being washed by warm watered towel.

...

It exactly as I thought that the culprit is a noble house. I wonder what will happen to us. Could it be he's- no. Could it be they're aim after ransom? ...no, impossible. If they're simply after ransom they shouldn't go all the way on such troublesome journey. Then... My best guess is... Although I don't know exactly, it must had to do with those political schemes of nobles. Yeah, rich people tend to stab each other in the back. So in that case, I'm sure we won't be killed; soon enough that is.

Geez... Why there's already flag waiting for me.

Miscellaneous POV :

"Dear, why don't you invite them to have a lunch with us."

"I'm about said that myself actually. Well, how about we have a lunch? I'm sure any of you had yet eat any. Deinard, tell the Cooks to serve the lunch."

"I'm understand."

The three ninja then follow the master and mistress to the dining room.

...

"So, this is your son Koga and your pupil Kasumi I assumed. He really looks like you back then."

"I know."

After that small exchange, the servants arrived bringing the foods and then serving them to the table.

"Alright everyone please enjoy your food."

...

"Koga-san Kasumi-san do you mind have a tea after this with me."

"Y-yes milady."

"Yes thank you , I would really like that."

Compared to Koga who answered rigidly, Kasumi answered that with smile beaming in her face.

Then after the lunch, Felgran the house master followed by Hanzo went to his study.

"Have a seat. I want to have a chat with you but before that... Here's your payment."

Saying so Felgran put small box around ten centimeters length and high to table in front of Hanzo. He then open its lid to see many glittering of gold coins.

"Don't you think this more than what you promised?"

"Yeah, just take it. It's a bonus."

"I will take it then. And... I might have asked this but, are sure about this all?"

"Yeah, I'm really sure and It's too late to regrets now. And you too know so well that I'm not a person who will ever forget my debts to anyone."

"Sigh... You're really not as cunning as you looks."

"I take it as a compliment."

"..... We met Blue Comet- ...whatever it's called, I guess."

"!, Do you mean the mysterious monster which written in the history as a mutation of a high ranked dragon who had life since the great war few centuries ago?"

"Yea, and the rumors said that it would never purposely made a contact with humans yet it appears before us. It's really odd creature and I doubt this is a coincidence. However I suggest you still had to be wary about The Order the most."

"Of course, that's a must. By the way how about you all stay over for the night? There will be small party tonight and there's special drinks I had prepared for this occasion."

"Well, if you insist."
