Thank you for reading this, again to hesitate to comment and please point out any mistake, I need to get better :)
This chapter was quite a challenge for me, there is a lot more description in it and it was hard to find the right words to put down my thoughts, as I'd already said, english is not my native language. So I hope it's still understandable :s ( I have no confidence in my skills)
And again ,hope your enjoy !
Peace

Day 2 : The Road & the Town :
So it was time to get going, as all my stuff was ready, I headed toward the exit and saw the sun for the first time in this world. It’s been almost 6 hours since I arrived here but I never walked out of the cave. But I have to say it felt great, feeling the warm sun on my face and the wind in my hair. The sky is blue as well here, and then I stop looking at the sky and start analyzing the scenery in front of me. The landscape is green, seems that there is almost only plains in the direct area, with some hills and forest. I realize that I’m quite high, up at the mountain so I can see quite a scenery.
But there is literally no civilization, no building, no concrete, no road. Well yes there is a road, about 2 km away from here, but it’s not a highway, more like a shitty dirty road. Well I guess it’s a standard in a middle age fantasy world. At least if I follow it I will end up in a village or a town, I hope there is one not too far away because I’m getting hungry and I do not know how to start a fire, and there is no way I’ll eat raw meat, no freaking way !
So I start using [Fast Running] , this skill is pretty awesome , With this I’m pretty sure I run at 40 km so the road is coming fast, very fast toward me and in less than a minute and I keep running, following the road, after a while, I start to feel the pain in my leg so I decided to slow down and walk a bit to relax before starting again . And while i’m walking I decided to practiced my void trap, I peddle and small rock that I pick up on the road and I throw them in front of me and try too “swallowed” them up with my void trap…. Yeah, I’m not that good, while the rock fly up I try one time but I swallow the air next to it and while it go down i’m late and it’s the air over it that disappear.
*Great, It gonna take forever to be capable of success >_<*
Well, not so far of the truth, after one hours of training and hundreds of rock, my rate of success was almost 2 for 30 …. Yeah not great, plus now you can literally follow me, why ? Because one in a while, when failure after failure, i would snap, get angry and void the pebble with the ground around , and with my rate of success, well yes, I had failed a lot so behind me there is a trail of perfects sphericals holes that would later give birth to a legend in the neighborhood’s town, but this is another story.
So while I was training I had noticed one thing, when my void trap would miss but the rock would fall hitting the trap, it would be repulse and transform in dust, interesting, so this is how my new idea came. I could make a shield, if I use my flat void it should work. It was time for test, and it worked ! I used my void 10m in front of me, the form of a plate, and I try to maintain it , it was not an easy task, but after 20 minutes I could maintain it for 15 seconds. So it ‘s time for a test, I make it appear again in front of me, and I throw a rock at it with all my might and the moment it hit, it was turn to dust, disintegrated in an instant , Victory. But it wasn’t exactly what I had in mind, what I want is a shield that surround me, a protective sphere that I could maintain more than 20 seconds …. So back to training ….. I try to change the shape, to round it but it was really hard and exhausting so after another 30 minute of failure I stop. Plus the sun was already starting to go down so I resume my fast running skill and thirty minutes later I could see a village in sight, another twenty minutes and I was finally at the gates. Yes !!
Now that I’m there, I start analyzing what I see, the village is rather small. It has maybe 600-700 inhabitants at most. I can distingue four gates at each cardinals points of the town. Each gates seems to have a small barrack with guards in it. I can see three of them guarding the entrance where I’m going. The village is inside a protective wall about 2 m tall, made of raw wood. It is small, even the roof of some house and building inside are taller. I see two main street that connect each opposite gates forming a cross in the center. It seems to be the mains alleys with some back-streets between all the houses. All the building’s design seems to come right from the middle-age era, well it is a fantasy world after all. They’re all made of stone with straw roof except maybe two or three building that seems more sturdy. Most likely the important ones.
As I approach I can now see the guards more clearly, all three have the same equipment, they wear black leather pants with some metal plate attach to them, metal boots who are quite big, you definitely don’t wanna one ending up stick in your butt, trust me it would be quite painful ! Next, the wear dark brown coat with protective plate on their back, metal epaulet and gauntlet and underneath I discern some light chainmail. All have a sword attach to their waist and one of them as two red line pint on his chest, most likely the head of unit. Well in clear, they are ready and you don’t wanna mess with them, not like I intend to anyway, I come in peace people !
And there I am now, in front of the gate as one of them approach me while the other two stare at me with their hands ready to draw their sword, and stand in the middle of the gateway to block the path if I start rushing inside.
“Stop right there please, show me your ID status and state your business !”
“ Hi there, I’m just a traveler, I wish to stop here to sell some stuff, resupply myself, have meal and sleep through the night. Show ID status”
Ding !
ID STATUSName :Grim Gae’ldoRace :HumanTitle :The Stranger
The guard take a moment and then …
“Alright, you may pass, welcome to Theodore village, have a nice stay .”
The moment he say that the other two relax and start going back to the barack, before the man in front of me start doing the same I start to talk again.
“Excuse me sir, may I ask you one or two thing ?”
“Sure, of course you can”
“Then can you tell where the shop and the inn are please and also ….” organizing my next paroles wisely …
“Also what sir ?” reply the guard who notice that I have another question, so continue talking praying god that nothing bad happen, or maybe I was praying for a positive answer, yeah it’s most likely that .
“Well … you see… my journey have been quite long and I had been mostly alone ( Yes I know I lied but who care ?) so I was wondering if there is a place here where I …. well, where I could buy the special service of a girl, if you see what I mean”

The guard is looking with a poker face before starting to laugh
“ Ah Ah Ah, sure man, no need to be shy ! Actually our inn provide this service too, and you’ll see, it’s a great pleasure !”
*YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS !!! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky ! Lucky !* Woops, sorry for that but man, I can finally see the light in the end of the tunnel ! I so hope I have enough gold, I need to go to the shop before hands ! Better be prepare !
“Both the inn and the shop are in the center , you can’t miss them. So if that it, enjoy your stay, bye”
“Thank you very much sir, and please keep up the good work !”
With the the guard return to the barack and I start rushing inside the town, well, I don’t run but I walk really fast. You know, like at school when it’s lunchtime, you’re starving, you don’t wanna wait for eating but you don’t have the right to run so your walking like hell to be the first in the queue. Well it’s me now as I pass toward the gate and main alley to the center and in no time I was in front of the shop. It looked rather plain, grey stones with two windows on both sides of the door and a wooden sign above who says : Al’tamor Shop. Well it’s what the lettering says, thank you very much comprehension skill, without you it would be a big pain in my ass !
*Damn, the sun is goin’ down already … hope it still open , better to get in now !*
With that I walk through the door, it was open, thank god …. When I’m inside I can see shelves on both left and right wall with vial on it . They have all sort of differents liquid with different colors in it, probably potion of some sorts. I can see swords, daggers, and tools as well as bags, empty or fill with variety of herbs and stones. Seems to have a lot of junks here, well thats good I assume/hope he will purchase my mana stone here. And as I’m lost in my though the owner start to speak.
“ Welcome customer, I’m Al’tamor, may I help you ?”
He surprised me, not because he started to talk but because he is small, 1m45 at most ! With short grey hairs, he wear a white large shirt that go down below his waist . He has brown cunning eyes, well, he is a merchant after all.
“Hi sir, I would like to sell some goods that I had collected while I was travelling and I was wondering if you might be interest in buying some ?”
“Well, of course, I tell you after I get a look at them”
The moment he says that, I can literally see sparks coming through his eyes, I guess they don’t have much visitors here so I approach my bag with the 80 small mana stone on the counter. He took a moment to look a them, ALL of them, so, almost 15 fucking minutes after he start talking again.
“That’s rather good stuff that you have here, I can gie you 25 silvers each so it would be 20 golds for all”
I know that he is screwing me right now but I don’t care, I need the extra gold right now for extra safety !
“The will do …. Ah ! And I have a question”After that he put all the stone behind him and I took out the Void ring and showed to him.
“By any chance, do you happen to know someone who would be able to repair that up ?” And then He looked at the ring for one minute and says
“Ah, that’s a shame but no, in my knowledge, a broken artefact can’t be repair by any means, sorry”
“It that so, well no big deal, thank you very much”
“No thank you for the good stuff you brought me, I assume you stay here for the night ?”
“ Yeah, I’ll be at the inn tonight, I’m going back to travel tomorrow”
“It that so, well, enjoy your stay, good night”
“thanks, ‘night”
*You can count on it old man, I’m goin’ to enjoy my stay very much ! Ok now it’s time to get lai… euh eat, I mean it’s time to eat dinner, I’m starting to starve after all.*
And just like that I exit the store and go in direction of the inn? Unlike the shop, the Inn was one of the well design building, it has white stone that look almost like marble with floral carving on it, a lot of beautiful plants next to the entrance and a well design dark wooden sign with golden lettering who’re saying . Fairy night Inn. The inside is bright and has a light brown floor, faint yellow wall and dark wooden beam overhead. To my right there is the restaurant room with just 2 people in it, yeah it is a small village after all. In front of me there is the stairs and to my left the counter with next to it the owner probably. Behind him I can glimpse at what it seems to be the kitchen. Anyway, I come in and walk straight toward the owner.
“Good evening sir, how can I help you ?”
“Good evening, I would like a meal and a room for the night. Also I had heard that I can get the special service of a girl here …”
“He he he , No need to be shy youngster !”
*Yeah, you’re not the first person who telling me that, but man, where I come from we are not so proud to used that mean and we have tends to hide it*
“You can, you can, so for the room plus one meal tonight and one tomorrow morning, it would be 40 silver, as for the girl it would be 3 gold per hour or 20 gold for the night, so ?”
Not two seconds after I was already putting 21 one gold on the counter. With a smile the man spoke again.
“For the night it it ! Do you want your meal here or in your room, if the last one, wait here 10 minutes and I will show you your room and bring you your meal”
“ I Will take it in my room, I’m in no hurry”
Well not entirely true but hey, I’ve been waiting for two year already, 10 more minutes can’t hurt me. And 15 minutes later I was in my room enjoying my meal, it seems to be some sort of boar, quite good ! The owner said that a girl will come in 25 minutes so I had times to get ready, well, I am ready !!
*Wait ! this is a middle age fantasy world, I don’t thinks they heard about condoms, so how do they deal with STD ?? Well, when you have healing magic you don’t really care about HIV I guess*
Toc Toc Toc
*It’s SHOW TIME !*
And as the girl coming, I started to drop my jaw? here I was speechless as I looked at the girl. Holy fucking Christ, she’s pretty, no ! She’s gorgeous, NO! She is smoking hot !! 1m65 tall, white skin with a perfect face, perfect body, just the right size of breast, very very long pure white hair and bright sharp blue eyes.
*Men, I’m goin’ to have sex with that !!!* Well, I mean, I was shocked ! I had pretty girlfriend before but she is at a whole next level. And so she approached me, started touching my torso while talking to me, but I didn’t heard a thing. And just like that, two year of deep and painful frustration has been catch up in one night ….
To be continued
