The rising of the hero of vengeance

Part 9

No POV 

this chapter picks up the next day and we get our sights on Y/n and Naomi inside of a medicine shop in a village below the mountain which the capital was located on. Naomi had two baskets, one filled with medicine that she made herself and the other with herbs and was selling them to the clerk who looked at them with interest 

Clerk: "Hmm, very interesting If I do say so myself. Are you well versed in making medicine Lady Heroine?"

Naomi: "Actually, yesterday was my first try" 

Clerk: "Really?" 

Naomi: "So which is more profitable? Selling herbs or medicine?" 

Clerk: "Due to the wave's impact, medicine has been flying off the shelves lately. So rather than herbs, I'd pay more for your medicine"

Naomi: "I see..." 

Naomi begun to look around the shop and looked at Y/n who was tugging at one of his chains which were wrapped around his arms, a sinister orange glow appearing every time he pulls it before she gets an idea from looking around the store and her attention was gained again by the clerk 

Clerk: "In total, this is worth 4 silvers" 

Naomi: "Listen, you wouldn't happen to have any tools you don't use, would you?" 

The scene then changes to an alleyway outside of the medicine shop and we see Uzaki leaning against the wall next to Raphtalia who was staring at something off screen until footsteps could be heard and Naomi and Y/n stepped into frame 

Naomi: "Raphtalia" 

Surprisingly, Raphtalia didn't acknowledge him at all as the view changed to show that Raphtalia was staring at two kids who were playing with a ball, her ears twitching at the sounds of the laughter coming from the two 

while Naomi approached Raphtalia, Y/n walked over to Uzaki who was watching with a small smirk 

Y/n: "How long's she been staring at the ball those two are playing with?" 

Uzaki: "I think it was around ten minutes?" 

Naomi: "Would you like a ball like that?" 

Finally realizing that Naomi was back, She quickly hopped off the barrel and shook her head no as she looked at Naomi 

Raphtalia: "N-No I don't! I'd never want a ball, not at all!" 

Y/n: "Your tail says differently" 

Y/n then pointed towards Raphtalia's tail which was swishing from side to side much to her embarrassment while Y/n Chuckled and Naomi had a small smirk on her face 

Naomi: "Alright, come with me you lot" 

The group then began to follow Naomi and after a few minutes, they came across a man who was sitting outside and was crafting the same type of ball that the children from earlier were playing with. Seeing this, Naomi had then brought one and handed it to Raphtalia who looked at it with happy smile on her face 

Naomi: "You can play with it after we're done with work" 

Raphtalia: "Of course!" 

Time Skip 

It's now getting late in the day and we find our protagonists inside an Inn with no one at the front desk, prompting Naomi to ring the bell and no one showed up still, causing Naomi to sigh in annoyance until a seductive voice spoke up behind them, one that was all too familiar to Y/n 

Morrigan: "If you're looking for the Innkeeper than I'm afraid you're out of luck, He just stepped out a few minutes ago. But I could be of assistance if you'd wish~?"
