Souta felt that something big is going to occur in the Gripin City. He always trusted his intuition, so he had to prepare himself. There's no harm to him even if he was wrong.

He rested his hand on the handle of the [Vajra Sword Saya] that was hanging on his waist.

Since the reward for this quest will give him 3 skill points, it wouldn't bring him that much trouble. With his current strength, he could handle the quest that will give him 3-5 skill points. He wasn't worried about this at all, he's worried at what's waiting for them in the Gripin City.

He rubbed his chin and wondered why the reward for this quest was 3 skill points. Considering what happened before, if that person from Melosa Country sent another batch of assassin then it was surely stronger than before, so the difficulty increases.

Souta shook his head and decided to think about these things later when he encountered it.

"It looks like your quite close to them, Souta? You even know the name of the maid and butler." Tidor said.

"Yeah, they employed me before so this was not the first time," Souta replied to Tidor as he gave the paper back to Lumilia.

"You should go back inside now," Souta said to Lumilia.

"Souta, do you want-" Lumilia didn't even manage to finish her sentence as Souta interrupted her.

"Don't worry about me. I'll do my job, you'll do yours." Souta said as he turned around and walked towards the carriage behind the blue exquisite caravan.

He knew what Lumilia was about to say. Although he wanted information, he still declined because of the Gale Group. He doesn't want to ignore the group as they were in a party right now.

It's important to improve his relationship with other adventurers. Especially to those higher rank than him.

In Lumilia's case, she was his classmate so there's a lot of opportunities to improve their relationship, but the Gale Group was different. Adventurers tend to travel from another place to another because of their job.

Lumilia looked at Souta's back before she shook her head.

Brianna stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry for his action. I'll talk to him later."

"No, it's okay. That's not a problem for me. Shall we go now?" Lumilia gently smiled and asked Brianna.

"Understood." Brianna nodded her head and she called her group. They went inside the carriage and their carriage started moving as they followed the blue caravan in front of them.

Yuko was on her four limbs. She's walking beside the carriage Souta was. With her body, she couldn't fit inside any carriage so she had to walk.

Traveling to Gripin City from Ladros City will take ten hours using this kind of carriage and caravan.

...

Souta picked up one of the fruits that he brought here. He stretched out his hand and Yuko ate the fruit in his hand.

In case something bad happened Souta was already prepared for it. He already bought middle-grade mana potions and health potions. There were also some pills that could temporarily increase his stats even for a whole one minute.

He used several platinum coins to acquire these potions and medicine. He managed to get the potion that could temporarily increase his stamina regen through Jimmy's help.

"Are you Miss Asvares friend?" Tidor suddenly asked him.

"Hm..." Souta pondered what's his answer in Tidor's question while rubbing his chin. He asked himself if she was his friend. When he found an answer he looked at Tidor and replied, "Yeah, I'm her friend."
