Ch 36: Finally the town

"Well…. That's very kind of you to give me seconds to…"

Allyson places the blade of the sword at Vera's neck, cutting her off from talking.

"Stop wasting time and get to the point."

"Right, of course, how foolish of me, anyway it 's not hard to understand that a girl like yourself got to be a soldier right given how you can fight."

"Yeah, I am a soldier."

"Alright then it doesn't matter to me who you serve yet some good information about the enemy location and just a little extra to keep me still alive your male friend there not looking too good if you reach into one of my pockets there is a small bottle of healing potion, I have with me you can take to help him."

Allyson stares at her for a second then starts to carefully move one hand to go into one of the pockets searching for a bit until finding that healing potion and taking it out.

"See aren't I a good person here, so what you say about removing the sword of my neck and letting me get back up."

"No, you can just go to sleep."

Vera gets a hard punch in the first that completely knocks her out cold doing that brings some joy to the girl.

After that Allyson got off of her and quickly went to Chase who was right on flat back on the ground breathing slowly that was getting less and less.

"Here this should make this less painful for you."

She opened the bottle, poured it into his mouth and held up his head once all it was gone the effects of the red liquid began to work.

Chase starts to feel himself heal as much as this small healing potion can do.

"What did that red stuff do to me? I feel a bit better, which is weird."

Recovering a little he is sitting up fine on the ground now.

"It's good to hear that the healing potion helped, but you are still going to need some treatment to take care of the wounds."

"Yeah could you explain to me what I just drank, I mean that thing looks pretty much like blood and it did have a weird taste."

"It may look that color, but it is not blood, just a red liquid that was created to help give healing to those in danger of needing it or after a battle can take to make the feeling of pain go down."

"Whoa, that amazing thing to have no doubt such a thing like this could be a good thing to have on earth."

Chase then gets himself to stand up on his two legs along with Allyson as the two face each other.

"So did you…"

"Kill her no."

"What!? She killed Buster who was lying on the ground with no head attached to the body."

"She had important information that could be very useful for those living in the town we are heading to."

Chase could believe what information someone like that person would have to stop Allyson from ending her life.

"Don't you think she will be lying to you just trying to delay?"

"If she is then death is what to come that I can swear on."

"I can't believe Buster died and that bitch got to stay alive. This doesn't feel right with Me."

"Then learn from these things aren't always going to work out, keep an eye on the unexpected so you hear me. Now would you please pick up her body, so we can get out of here?"

Chase sighs pissed off at how everything turned out at the end of this whole eventful fight not agreeing on the result.

Yet it was clear from just looking at Allyson's face that she wasn't going to change her mind anytime soon about it until later.

So he just walked up to Vera taking a minute to look at her pass-out face.

"Tell me we are going to bury the guy who thinks he has the right at least to that after losing his life helping."

"Not as of now, but once we get into the town, I will make sure that it happens."

"Yeah, please do also bring me along to help with it, I own the guy that at least."

Chase picks up Vera's body off the ground, putting it over his shoulder.

When done, he and Allyson start to walk off finally heading to the town.

|The town of Merton|

Up on the town walls of Merton where the guards are keeping watch.

"Looks to me today was just going to be another normal day."

"Better than something dangerous happening or at best anything else that makes us do some work."

"Agree to hope that goes on like…"

As one of the guards on top stops Halfway talking coming to spot two figures walking this way to the town.

"Hey what's wrong."

"Look like they are two people heading this way."

"Who could they be?"

"From what I am seeing one is a female and the other a male where both don't look too good. Oh, the male seems to be carrying another body that is hard to identify for the moment.

While the two guards on the wall talked, the new visitors arrived at the front entrance of Merton.

They take a better look at Allyson and Chase's conditions, also discovering the body being carried by the male to be female as well.

A story is indeed behind these two these guards think on the wall.

"What business do you have with our town?"

One of the guards asked and Allyson took a step forward to speak back.

"My name is Allyson Allie, a soldier who fought and served in the same empire. Please tell your commander that we are here and in need to speak as I am on a mission that must take action immediately."

"First tell us who the male carrying on his shoulder."

"A bandit leader that we encounter and seem to know the matter I come with. Now would you do as I ask?"

"Hold tight there, we will get our boss to come to see you soon."

One of the guards took leave to do that while the two out front of the entrance of the town waited for a few minutes.

Then both come to see the gate start to rise as four female guards walk forward with one of them moving in the center like someone important.

"I am the captain of the guards In Merton. I was informed you wanted to speak with me."
