Chapter 22

Night fall and all the carriages stopped and everyone rested for the night. Since I don't really require sleep I stayed up as I sat on a tree branch I look up at the large grey moon that shines it's like upon us

For some reason my strength seem to have increased as night fall. Must be because vampires are mostly night creatures.

>> Master.. Is something on your mind? <<

I shook my head to Veelzebub question. I'm actually thinking about mom and my sister, I wonder how they're doing. They've probably buried me by now and aslo cremated me or something. If I have one regret in dying is leaving them behind.

" Let's get some training in the night "

>> Sure..Your scythe wielding Skills are skill at the beginner level <<

I found a secluded spot in the woods and began practicing swinging my weapons. Scythes are normaly one shot one kill weapons. It's typically a long rang weapon thats weak to close quarters combat but with training I can refine my skills.

>> Are you ready ? <<

I nod and I started to practice wielding my scythe and as I practice Veelzebub teach me what I'm doing wrong.

>> You need to be light on your toes... Your grip is too heavy you need to relax....Don't focus so much on your blade<<

It's nagging is starting to get to me but I know if I don't hone my skills I'll never be truly strong. We continues until I was day break where I got a quick clean up using a little water and wind magic.

>> Your skills are improving if you keep practicing you'll be a master of welding scythe.. In about 2 years <<

" I can't tell wether your complimenting or insulting me "

After that i headed back to the carriages, everyone was packing up and ready to roll

" Roselina.. Your here.. Thanks for keep watch last night "

Thomas said.

" seriously , who told you I was keeping watch over you guys ?"

I ask.

" Hehehe, why don't we go ?

The carraige was boarded by everyone and it started driving again and instead of riding in the carraige I rode on the top.

>> Master are we there yet <<

" Yeah we're close, look "

I point out a city that down the hill and near the ocean. I was in awe because this is the first time I've seen the ocean, well I have seen it, but only on television.

After 1 hour we reach the gates of the city.its a small city was near the coast of California, the far west of america.

Thomas peek up at me from the carraige seat.

" Listen Roselina.. You think you can put away that scythe.. there is tight security when we reach the gate "

I nod.

" Veelzebub you think you can hide inside the blood storage for a while "

>> I don't mind.. Call me out when it's time to eat <<

I put my scythe and into my blood storage . Soon we arrived at the gate where we pass through security. They all seems flimsy as best, I was worried for nothing but all the surrounding males was looking at me. How nostalgic.

" Who's this cutie "

A guy wearing a sailors uniform walked up to me. He grabbed my hand and looked at me passionately. his blood hair flutter with the win and his green eyes sparkle.

Can I throw up now?

" my dear if love had a deadline I wouldn't want our love to end In ten thousand years "

He smile and put on a charming atmosphere.

" Hey "

Thomas stepped between the both of us.

" How rude.. Don't you know is polite to introduce yourself first ? "

Thomas said.

" My name is Ernesto Eshaldo ... Vice captain of the cupid ship...Now will you move aside.. I was having a conversation with this young lady when you interrupted us "

Said Ernesto pushing Thomas away and then hold my hand.

" Now my dear.. Let's go somewhere we can talk in private "

He hold me hand and dragged me away with him. Then Thomas appear before him with a smile.

" I'm sorry but she's not going anywhere with you "

" Why is that? "

" Because she's my girlfriend "

" What "

What !?

Thomas hold my hand and pulled we away but that Ernesto seem to be displeased.

" Hey let me go, who said we're dating "

" Ssssssshhhh, do you want him to come back again ?"

Thomas whispered to me. I guess he has a fair point. We arrived at the merchants guild where I take a bow.

" This is where we part ways.. Thanks for your help "

I said.

" Are you sure...don't you want to join us? "

Thomas ask.

" I'm destined to walk alone.. So I can't be friends with you.. So from this day forward you and I are nothing but strangers.. Goodbye "

I turned and walked away.

" Looks like you got dumped Thomas "

I could hear the bear eared girl telling Thomas that I dumped him. Foolish, you and I weren't a couple in the first place.

Now all I have to do is find a pawn broker and sell some of the things I have in my bracelets. I walked through the town and looked around. The scent of raw fish lingers in the air.

" There "

I said as I saw a small pawn shop. I opened the door and the small bell rang. I saw a old man standing at the counter from what I can see he's near sighted.

" Hello "

I said.

" A customer.. What can I do for you? "

He ask as I got closer to the counter.

" I'm looking to sell some items "

I said as I fold my arms.

" What kind of items? "

The red stone in my bracelets glowed and 5 items came out. A magic cape, 3 antique lamb, antique box.

" These are artifacts I obtained from a old mansion. Each are over three hundred years old.. You can check their authenticity "

I said.

He took up a magnifying glass and checked all of them.

" Your right.. These are indeed over 300 years old..A lamp they can burn infinitely... A fire resistance cape and three boxed made from wood of the Alpark Tree.. These items are rare, extremely rare "

After examine them he looked up a me.

" Young lady.. I'm afraid I can't afford these "

He said. I felt a bit dissapointed but he made a suggestion of selling them in an auction.

" You sure "

" Yes definitely "

Then so be it, I'll sell these rare items in an auction
