Eternity

Chapter 1: Alma

24th january 3021, sunlion empire.

Alma come back after she has done her quest. 8 p.m, the best time for having a beer and a roasted bacon in 'the crook' the best bar known in the capital. She walks in and crowded sounds surrond her. Walk unnoticed to the corner of the bar, a free spot.
A wandering maid approach her.
"The usual, miss?"
"Extra beer, keep the changes."

A drunk man acros her wispering to his drinking buddy.
"Look at that ass mate,"
"Hey lady, wanna spent some good time with a good man?"
The partner surprised, his eyes widen."Are you insane mate? You don't know her?" Angrily, he give a light slap to his drunk friend.
"Ouch! What the hell!"
"Come here let me tell you something"

"Well known as a the best sword woman around. Alma a diamond rank merchenaries, highest rank an individual merchenary can get.
She would do any dangerous job as long as it pays her well. Never mistook her beauty."

"Huh? For real?"

"Try to mess with her if you are not afraid of the consequences. I don't have time to burry your body"
"Let me tell you something,"
"There was a brave man. I still remember that day. A drunk man, just like you approach her in the corner of the guild."

"Then?"

"Not long after that, his corpse found floating on the river, near the outside wall."

The partner take a deep breath and pat his drunk friend. "Don't waste your live, trying to please your lust!"
The drunk man goes silent for a moment. He took a glance at Alma and realized that she stare at him. In a quick movement, he avert his gaze towards his partner.
"I'm dead, what should i do?" His voice trembling in fear. The partner told him in a low voice," go ask her for forgiveness, better lose some money than a life."

The sober and frightened man started to walk to Alma, sit on the vacant chair, right across her. "Uhh, look miss, I-I am so sorry about earlier. W-would you mind to spare me please?"
She just smiled,"I bet you could not even paid my meal, just leave."

The man then leave awkwardly. Limping out of the bar.
The other started to stand and walk in a fast pace, almost running, towards the chasier. Paid, and run towards his friend.

"What have you done, miss. I saw two men rush over the exit." The bar maid laugh a little, placing a big bowl of roasted bacon, salad and a big steak. A delightful roasted aroma spreading. "Nothing, just some random jerk." after the bar maid leaves, Alma started to eat the meals, gulping the beer and burping.
