Anton and the others inside the huge cart were busy talking to each other. Basically, they started learning about each other since they would be traveling with the group for quite some time. The most vocal amongst them was Anna. She told everyone what they had experienced during their travel from their farm to the city of Leminthor. The twins were a good audience since they kept exclaiming and gasping at every battle Anton’s family encountered.

The twins even shrieked when Anna described the vampire appearing and even Frederick paled and commented that he would have died if he were the one in that situation.

When Anna asked Anton to describe the last army of undead they encountered, the twins, Frederick and even Colin were so frightened to learn that the army was composed of three powerful liches, several vampires, and a host of diverse undead like ghouls, zombies, and wraiths.

Anton and Anna’s experiences while traveling to the city of Leminthor occupied their time until lunchtime. The caravan stopped to rest the horses and feed them while a host of attendants prepared food for everyone.

Anton and Anna experienced the life of the son and daughter of rich merchants being served hand and foot by servants.

“I like this! Just saying what I want and everyone will clamor to get it for me,” Anna said while wearing a smug expression.

Anton rolled his eyes at Anna’s expression then joined his father and his retinue.

Before he arrived to sit with them, Anton heard them talking about business so he went back and joined his sisters and her maids, the mage and Colin.

After lunch, Anton went to the horses and healed each one of them using his Prayer, Meditation, and Vigor Aura to make sure that all the animals were healthy. The mana water that he was conjuring though was only for his family and close friends now since Anders and Nemina told him that it was dangerous for a lot of people to know that he had something that could basically turn back time for people and make them younger in the long run.

They went back to traveling after Anton healed the horses and this time it was Ramona and Belinda’s turn to tell their story.

“Our parents were merchants and we were comfortable. Unfortunately, they died a few months ago due to a monster attack when they were traveling with a merchant caravan from the city of Tiande,” Belinda sadly said.

“Our house and all of our belongings were used to pay for all the debts our family incurred and fortunately, there were some left for us to rent a place for ourselves. We then started working but we kept being harassed by men and some rich nobles even proposed that we would earn a lot of coins by becoming courtesans,” Ramona added.

The twins then mentioned that their parents taught them the right way and would never consider prostituting themselves.

“We were so happy when the adventurer’s guild protected us from the predators in the city but that was the only help they could give. They had no job opening in the guild so we still struggled to look for a job that would let us work in peace without experiencing any harassment,” Belinda said.

They then learned that a powerful wizard was looking for maids for his sisters and they managed to reach Nemina. After interviewing them, Nemina hired them immediately when they told her that it was okay for them to leave the city.

“You don’t need to worry anymore! I’ll take care of you both,” Anna told the twins and hugged them.

She then introduced the book that she was reading and Anton was surprised at how well and detailed the synopsis she had given for the first book of the Belgariad series to everyone. Even Frederick and Colin looked interested when they heard the story from Anna.

“This book was written by an author called David Eddings but it was Anton who copied them for me. Right now, I’m in the middle of the second book.”

Anna lent the first part of the first book to the twins who were planning for both of them to read it at the same time. Frederick then asked if he could borrow it once the twins were done and Anna agreed although the twins said that it would probably take some time before they completed reading the notebook.

After the twins told their story, Colin shared his next. It was a straightforward story of a villager wanting to become an adventurer. Unfortunately, a monster that their group was attacking caused him to lose his arm and leg. He thought he would die as a crippled person but thankfully Sir Anton healed him.

“You can regenerate lost limbs!” Frederick exclaimed and Anton just nodded.

The mage and Anna’s maids looked at Anton in awe.

“Are you a priest as well? Normally powerful healing spells are the purview of the clergy,” Frederick said.

Anton just shrugged and told everyone that he had spells that could heal and relieve fatigue and that was the main reason they outran the armies of the Undead Coalition. Their horses ran non-stop without experiencing loss of stamina and any injuries that they received were healed immediately.

“You’re a very powerful wizard. You should be my teacher instead of me teaching you,” The mage commented.

“As you know my magic can’t be taught that’s why I hired you since I wanted to learn how to cast normal spells as well.”

Frederick smiled and reiterated that he would begin teaching the next day. The mage also said that he already had all the materials needed to begin teaching.

“I’m so excited to learn magic! The first time I saw my brother defeating a monster by casting a spell that froze them made me want to do the same thing!” Anna said excitedly.

“It would probably be a while before you reach that stage. I couldn’t even do something like that. A single ghoul would have probably killed me without any problem,” Frederick said.

Anna deflated when she heard what the mage said but Anton consoled his sister.

“At least we’ll be classmates in learning the standard magic. Maybe you’ll even surpass me in wielding the regular magic.”

Anna then firmly said that she would try her best to learn as fast as she could. After that talk, it was Frederick's turn to tell his story and Anton was glad that the mage’s age was near them and he wasn’t powerful enough to be a stuck-up.

“I’m just like Colin. A villager who wanted to become an adventurer. The difference was a mage passed through the village where I was born and the moment I saw the mage cast a Fire Bolt, I knew that I would spend the rest of my life pursuing magic. So, I pestered the mage and after slaving myself as his assistant for two years, he began teaching me the arcane language. Unfortunately, I was already twenty years old when the mage arrived at my village and my magical talent is mediocre so I could only cast a few spells by now. It still allowed me to work as a mage adventurer though but I wasn’t earning a lot of coins.”

Frederick then paused for a bit since everyone was hungry so Anton retrieved some snacks from his inventory and shared them with everyone.
