Tale of a Reincarnated God Vol. 2 (WN)

Chapter 8: Two Unusual People

On the other hand, while Clover was serving the adventurers and the merchant alike, he noticed that he didn't see the girl with them at all. As a matter of fact, he hasn't seen her at any of the food gatherings since the journey started. Clover didn't know what to think of this and continued to focus his senses on people who weren't within his immediate area.

Clover while concentrating continued his actions of getting his own food after everyone else and sat down next to his own teammates. The other adventures were talking about themselves and their families.

"I became an adventurer for the pay! But it is kinda all over the place."

"I agree with you my friend, the pay is good!" [Tarvin]

Tarvin is talking to a bunch of different adventures just bonding with their fellow guardians. The rest of Midnight Flurry was also talking to other people having a great time. Reese the most nervous and shy person of the group, managed to find other shy girls who were adventuring.

"So how many drinks can you take?"

"Ehh! I don't drink though... but maybe 8 pints?" [Reese]

"8 Pints?!"

Kayone was overhearing Reese's conversation with other girls she gets along with and thinks to herself. 'Wow that's actually surprising for you. I've never heard of this.' Kayone continued to listen to different conversations of the different members of her group. She was thoroughly enjoying the time she was having with everyone despite her rough personality.

Clover was sitting down on a log and a bear like many with heavy armor sat down next to Clover. The captain of the vanguard team Clover thought.

"So you're the youngest person on this trip huh? Why's a youngster like you doing out here?"

"Pushy much aren't you?" [Clover]

"Haha! Its just my personality. Some say I'm just like my older brother in the capital."

"I see. Well I'm just here for the ride." [Clover]

He takes off his shoulder pauldrons and chestplate and leans it against the log he is sitting on. He has a very thick muscle built body. As if every fiber could crush a watermelon in an instant.

"You know when I was your age I was just messing around with my friends playing pranks at my orphanage."

"When you were my age? When was this? Over 50 years ago?" [Clover]

"C'mon now there pal, you don't need to be that rude. Also i'm not that old. I'm still in my late thirties."

"Haha. I don't think we've formally met each other, my name's Clover." [Clover]

"This is certainly late, but nice to meet you. Clover my name's Halrine, but other people usually call me Hal the Hellbringer." [Hal]

Clover and Hal continued talking, just conversing with each other, engaging in small talk.

"Where you the one that cooked this amazing meal? What do they call it? Beef Stew?" [Hal]

"Yeah this is called Beef Stew. I learned it from a staff member back at my orphanage in Belcroft." [Clover]

"Oh so that's why you're here. Came from Belcroft." [Hal]

"Yeah." [Clover]

"Well, I'm always welcome to new youth adventuring out in the world. It's my job as the experienced elderly to teach the new generation." [Hal]

"Calling yourself elderly when you just said you're not that old just a few minutes ago." [Clover]

"But you do admit i'm experienced." [Hal]
