"Now that we have settled this problem, how about we talk about our experience? I an, I'm pretty curious about the life of an anomaly like myself. Of course, if you don't mind sharing it? If you can't trust , I can also give you a bit of my story first." Yale asked, persuading Albert to share his experience.
Albert thought for a mont and said, "To be honest, there's nothing much. I was beaten by my abusive parents and often starved for a day or two until I was very weak. Recently, I got my freedom and started my new life."
"That's simple but sad at the sa ti. You were beaten repeatedly every single day, so it must be hard for you, especially if you were hungry." Yale nodded with a sad expression. "As for , I wasn't beaten by anyone. I didn't even go hungry.
"It's true that my father abandoned and my forr fiancee ridiculed , but it just happened recently. I even have enough strength to leave the country if I don't like it." He smiled.
'This boy is too innocent.' Albert thought, wondering whether he could keep a secret or not.
"Then, how about your power? What do you feel about your ability? If I am not wrong, you used one spell without an elent and another spell with a lightning elent, right? This is weird because you feel like you have but don't have an elent at the sa ti.
"This is even weirder than mine. I an, I have a light elent because of my lineage. However, I don't know where my dark elent cos from." Yale looked at Albert and asked, "Did your elent appear right after you were born?"
Albert shook his head. "No. Because of my past, I could only go to the temple recently to receive a blessing."
"Ah, a job, right?!"
"Yes. After getting a blessing, I was sohow able to wield both of them at the sa ti."
"In that case your parents" Yale looked down and widened his eyes. "No. Your parents must have known about this by secretly testing you. That was why they didn't tell you anything or else you might strike them back."
"Why?" Albert tilted his head in confusion.
"To be honest, an anomaly has its advantages and disadvantages. First of all, an anomaly can bring calamity to others because they're emanating a continuous scent of power. Hmm How do I explain this
"Let's just say that an average person is like your common food while we're like your nutritious food. That's the difference.
"As for the advantage, it depends on our elent. There are various cases Wielding two elents will be harder than one, raising the chance of exploding."
"So, you're like a ticking ti bomb, huh." Albert squinted his eyes and nodded.
"Ti bomb? What's that?"
"Sothing that can harm everything in your surroundings."
"Well, sothing like that." Yale nodded with a serious expression. "So, there are more disadvantages than advantages, so people like us usually beco an outcast.
"Of course, there are people who can beco extrely powerful in the future despite being one. Unfortunately, only one person out of a hundred could do sothing like that.
"As for Haha, I don't know whether I can laugh at this or not, but I actually almost killed around fifty people on various occasions, so I can understand if they want to expel .
"At the very least, my title as a prince is still useful to keep alive, so yeah, I want to travel around the world like you, exploring what I can't do as a normal prince. If you don't mind, I would like to be your travel companion.
"Maybe in the future, we can find a way to control this power and beco that one percent of people. So" Yale extended his hand with a smile as if asking him whether it was alright or not.
Albert smiled and shook Yale's hand. "Of course. I'd love to."
"That's great!" Yale made a big smile as he said, "Yennex can't follow us, alright?! I already told you this, so I am just reminding you now."
"What, Young Lord!"
Despite various attempts to persuade Yale, Yennex wasn't able to get into his mind. In the end, the group traveled for another day before they could reach the periter of Borsoli Town.
Unfortunately, they needed to camp outside for one night because they still needed a few hours to reach there, so they planned to enter the town in the morning.
Because of that, Albert learned how the group could survive without many resources.
When they moved to the side of the road, Albert and Yale ca out, seeing Yennex walking to the back of the carriage.
It turned out there was a small drawer where they stored the camp, water, and food. It wasn't a big caravan, but they shouldn't have a problem feeding three people.
Yennex skillfully took the food out and imdiately prepared sothing for Yale. anwhile, Albert took out dried at from his bag that he had prepared for a five-day trip.
Yale was wondering why Albert did that, but he soon realized that Albert had indeed prepared to walk across the grassland.
After eating, Yale continued to talk with Albert, trying to know his experience after getting his freedom, yearning for one himself.
In the end, Albert had one question in mind. "Why do you think you're thrown away?"
"Huh?" Yale widened his eyes while Yennex glared at him, not liking the question one bit. Even though Yale had opened up to him, he was still a prince while Albert was a noble.
If they focused on their difference in rank alone, Albert still needed to think about his words.
On the other hand, Yale didn't mind Albert's words. In fact, he was glad to know that his traveling partner would see him as an equal instead of a lord that one could serve.
That was why he wouldn't need to be that stiff on the journey.
Yale took ten seconds to think about it and explained, "First of all, it's because of my ex-fiancee. My father would have helped if I was bullied by so high-ranking nobles. After all, he still held the highest jurisdiction.
"So, seeing him accepting my fate is the sa as throwing away. He must be thinking that I am a pawn that needs to be sacrificed to appease the nobles or my own brothers and sisters.
"I don't know if you know about it, but we have the usual fighting for the throne stuff, so yeah, my father has thrown away.
"As for the second reason, everything had been reduced in my mansion the maids, provisions, and budget.
"Well, this journey is also a part of the reason. Sending is the sa as sending the answer. We have been asked to co to the conference to talk about war and yet, they send a naive kid like I might not die, but I will surely be humiliated
"Last but not least, who cares about what he thinks. I might be a kid, but it doesn't an I can't retaliate against my father. Since he doesn't care about , I won't hesitate walking away from ho." Yale explained.
Albert nodded in agreent as he had a similar reason why he left his own house. And it turned out to be the best way.
Sadly, he escaped too late as his future was cut off.
It was different for Yale as he had a bright future for himself, so he thought Yale was indeed a good candidate to be his disciple or subordinate. As long as he could make him think about it, he could get his first Bonk Officer.
His strength might not be powerful currently, but he had surpassed the majority of people in Lustville Town within a few days. So, he had the confidence to surpass Yale sooner or later.
After talking for a bit more, Yale returned to his carriage and decided to sleep on the soft couch while Yennex stayed inside the tent.
He was sleeping, but he knew that Yennex was still aware of his surroundings due to his powerful hearing as a werewolf.
Albert ended up staying outside as he didn't have his own tent. Luckily, his fur shields him from the cold wind, allowing him to sleep comfortably.
When the morning arrived, the group imdiately continued their journey to Borsoli Town.
They soon reached Borsoli Town. Even Albert was curious and took a peek at the town, finding a tall stone wall covering the town.
The wall reached as high as fifty feet and had a circular shape. The stones seed to be made of cobblestones as if they were erected just for the sake of being made. There was no real purpose other than using it as a decoration.
Albert even thought there might be a spell that could destroy the wall in one hit. He just hadn't discovered it yet.
Yale looked at the town and sighed. "Well, that's the town, I guess."
"You should be more interested in this," said Albert while staring at the wall.
"Why? This is the sa as any other town." Yale was confused, not understanding Albert's train of thought.
"Just imagine if you're tired after walking for a few days. You haven't had any good sleep in the last few days and you reach this town during the night with the lamps brightening the city. What do you think?"
Yale squinted his eyes and looked down, trying to imagine the situation. After a while, he closed his eyes to fully imrsed in his imagination.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on Yale's face as he answered, "Yeah. I think I will be smiling when I see that town. There's like a sense of what? Accomplishnt?"
"That's sothing we can find later. After all, the journey won't be fun if we know where the journey is! We will explore and enjoy everything!" Albert smiled.
"That's so cool!" Yale clenched his hands as he looked at Albert with bright eyes.
anwhile, Yennex was gritting his teeth as he still couldn't get over the fact that his master was going to stay outside with the chance of dying.
Soon, they entered the city. Even though he had imagined the scene, Yale still couldn't beco as excited as Albert.
Obviously, the reason for Albert's excitent ca from the fact that the houses in this town were made of bricks, indicating a more advanced city than Lustville Town.
This place should have many things, so he thought about using his money to buy one or two spells since he had more than three hundred Bonk Bites."
They soon ca out in front of an inn, planning to rest to prepare for the eting that would be held tomorrow.
As if she was aware of their presence, a woman was flying toward them from the top of the inn. She had long black hair beautifully tied into a ponytail with the help of a white hairpin, giving a good contrast to her hair.
She had sharp but enchanting red eyes that could entrance anyone. There was a pair of purple wings on her back.
Still, her face and perfect curves, coupled with the revealing outfits that barely covered her private parts, were enough to make Yale stop thinking about anything.
He was simply staring at her with blank eyes.
On the other hand, the woman's expression darkened as she looked down on Yale.
The mont she landed on the ground, she said with a cold but seductive tone. "To think they sent the cursed prince I guess the Pride Kingdom doesn't want to fight alongside ."
Albert felt goosebumps when he saw this woman. There was a strong force of rejection.
His mind was telling him how beautiful she was, but his instinct kept calming him down and replacing it with anger.
Na: Lilith
Race: Succubus
Level: 332
Gender: Female
Seeing Yale was trapped by her beauty and slling the arousing scent emanating from the succubus made Albert's body move in front of Yale while raising his Bonk Bat as if he wanted to protect him.
'Why did I move? She's too strong, and her gaze Shit, am I going to die?' Albert gulped down in fear but still asked, "Yale, are you alright?"
