Euphoria!

With everything ready Derick went for his second day out of town.

***

It was almost 10 o'clock in the morning.

Usually by this time the soldiers would have finished cleaning up the mess and would be asleep, but unlike usual there were quite a few soldiers on the street, most of them were young, about 18 to 20 years old.

Arriving at the gate, Derick discovered the reason for all this euphoria.

As always it was the same guard who protected the gate, and there were a few other people who were not soldiers, and among them a young woman stood out.

She was blonde with long hair, her hair tied up with a small black ribbon. Although she was wearing a mask that covered most of her face, leaving only her blue eyes visible, you could see that she was very beautiful.

She was wearing iron armor and on her waist was a sheath with a short sword.

On her index finger was a ring, it was a space ring. In the center of the ring was a small emerald, this meant that it was an E rank ring.

The estimated value of this ring was 1000 gold coins and it could store approximately 25 square meters.

"I wonder if she is the daughter of someone important?" One of the soldiers who was closest to Derick commented.

Derick observed the crowd of young soldiers and realized that they were not looking at her lustfully, but with a look of curiosity.

"Are they making all this commotion, over a woman?" Derick thought to himself.

Derick could not understand this feeling, being a newcomer to the gate and also being an adventurer, he could return at any time to his beloved, or home to rest.

However, the soldiers did not have this option, they could return home only twice a year, that is if they could survive to do so.

However, soldiers did not have this option, they could only return to the house twice a year and for that they had to survive.

Derick waited his turn in line, but for some unknown reason, the woman looked back and was surprised to see Derick.

She slowly approached him and asked.
