CH.96 Horse Riding
Our ride… is this a ride? I think it is. It is called horse riding. Well our ride was going… I can’t say fine as this is not what I would call comfortable.
I was thinking of having The Trojan Horse move at top speed, but that was stupidly bad. I think I would have killed soone if I kept up that speed. So instead we were moving at a decent trot.
I had Laura calculate the speed we would need to make it to Alewatch in the two hours we had, and set the speed a little above it. It was uncomfortable, but we would make it.
“Brian, can’t we slow down?” Lua asked.
“Not really. We won’t make it in ti if we do.” I told her.
“But this thing shakes more than the worst carriage.” She complained.
“Sorry, I don’t have anything that flies and can carry this many people.” I told her.
I don’t have a spaceship after all.
(Actually, you do have Gradius. It is a spaceship.) Laura told .
(Gradius? When did I get that?)
(After getting Blue-Eyes.) Laura said.
(... I totally didn’t overlook it. I would never do that. I just … ignored it.) I muttered in my mind.
(I know you didn’t. Of course you were just waiting for the perfect ti to use it. Weren’t you?) Laura teased.
(You know I was. And Gradius wouldn’t fit all of us, would it?)
(No it would not. This was a good choice.) Laura confird.
The trot was going… well about as fine as you could expect it to go. My passengers used anything they had with them to protect their behinds from the damage, and even had to keep a horse calm. That’s not on . If you want out, just say it. I’m not going to force you to stay.
When we ran into the on ground search party, we had to stop for a second. I think everyone was relieved by it and so were even asking for healing magic. It’s not that bad. Stop exaggerating.
(It doesn’t feel as bad to you, Master. You have higher than average defense and the Summoner’s protection skill.) Laura reminded .
… oh yeah. I guess it might be painful then. My bad.
The ground squad was a little jealous about us in our rain cover, but there is no way we would fit three people and three horses in here. We were almost at max capacity already. Two people, or even three, maybe. But with the horses. No way.
After the quick information exchange, more like an info dump, we were back on the move.
I had to speed up The Trojan Horse just a bit more so we would make it in ti. Sadly, this also increased the shaking a bit, but we have to just deal with it.
We made it just in ti to the gate. We did have to hurry a bit to get everyone off the horse before the ti was up. I even felt a strange mana surging from the card as we were getting off. It was a stronger version of the mana signal that normally cos when the ti limit is approaching. Perhaps sothing like a critical warning. I need to experint on extending the summoning ti. Alice can do it with Mana, so perhaps there is a way I can do it. Unless it’s tied to magic attributes or sothing. In that case I might not be able to do it, as I don’t have one.
… unless I got one when I got the water spirit’s blessing.
(Laura. Did the blessing affect my attributes?) I asked.
(Sadly no. Master still has no attribute.) Laura told . (That is why the blessing only gave you the ‘Summon water spirit’ skill. It adjusted to your body. For soone like Lucia, who has the water magic skill, it would boost her water magic on top of gaining the summoning skill.)
Really? So Lua gained even more power than I did.
(Yes she did.) Laura told .
Lua is too powerful. How is she C-rank again? I feel like she should be at least B-rank.
“Brian. Thank you for bringing everyone back.” The guild master.. the ex-master thanked .
“I didn’t exactly bring everyone back.” I said back to him.
“Even if they didn’t make it, you brought them back. It’s still better to get back ho, instead of rotting on the side of the road.” He told .
“Being alive is even better.” I argued.
“There is nothing more you could have done. Don’t look at this as you let four people die. Look at this as you saved sixteen people.” The guild master argued.
“I’ll try. Thanks.”

“Brian. We are heading inside. Are you not coming?” Lua called to as they were all moving inside the walled part of town.
“... yeah.” I snapped out of my trance. “I’m coming.”
We made it back to the adventurer’s guild. Christina was there waiting for us and she was thankful I brought her husband back in one piece. I distracted her by saying it was the other adventures that kept him safe while they were under attack, and got Christina off my back with that.
I sat down at one of the tables in the guild and Lua brought so ale for . I didn’t even ask for it, but I got it anyway.
“Are you not going to have any?” I asked her. With her curse now gone, she could have so.
“I did try it, but I'm not really a fan.” She told .
“Understandable. Not everyone likes it.” I said as I took a gulp.
“What were you thinking about at the gate?” She asked.
“... nothing much. It’s sothing to do with the system mission.” I told her.
“Is sothing bad happening again?” She asked.
“Thankfully not. It’s all good news this ti.” I told her.
“Then we will take this opportunity to unwind. Even for adventurers, peace is the best.” Lua said as she pulled out her blood flask and took a sip.
“Yes it is.” I responded as I pulled open my pack opener.

Mind as well try it imdiately.
(There isn’t a monster reborn in the new sets, right?) I confird with Laura.
(No. There is Monster Reincarnation, but that won’t work.) Laura told .
(Why not?) I asked.
(It would move the soul of the dead to a new vessel, not resurrect them in their old one.)
Well, I guess it is called reincarnation. Not resurrection.

Spoiler

No monster reborn for . Not that I was expecting one at this point. Getting one was lucky enough. Sorry Rico. But I might still make it if I get one tomorrow morning.
With those thoughts, I took another gulp of ale.
