Chapter 7 Meeting a thief

"Robin! have you taken all your clothes!?" Father asked me, for the tenth time in an hour as I got my horse ready

"Yes, Father I have all my belongings in here," I said as I pointed to a bag I had prepared.

My armour and swords were inside my inventory, ready to be equipped at any moment, the bag will also go in once I am done with it, I guess it's a previous life problem or I am just clumsy, but I always forget some stuff behind so I have kept the bag out.

"That's good then, remember to write to us, The other kids keep asking about you whenever you go out for long travels" He advised.

Why was he acting weird

"Don't worry about him, The kids are just fine, Father himself keeps missing you so he is asking you to write to him" Sister Lily arrived,

"Haha, don't worry about me Father, you know I can always escape if things go south," I told him

"Hmph! I am not worried one bit, just go and earn some bread now will ya" he harrumphed and turned around.

He is such a tsundere.

"I have to leave now, Sister Lily, The leader is waiting for me," I told her and got the blessing of Father before I left.

I had my training boulders with me along with anything else I would need

Mr Leo was waiting for me on the outskirts of the village, he told me I would be getting double the wage after we complete this week's work.

I will be staying with the group of merchants and their mages for a whole week.

"So, How about we deal with this and then start our journey, Robin!?" Leo asked me as he pointed at the carriage that had all the goods behind him.

I gave an ok and made my way inside the thing, no one was told about what my purpose is in this group, except for Leo, I was the one that came up with this arrangement in case one of their own turned against them, I don't wanna earn an ugly death.

I went inside and looked at all the crates. I put those that were marked with red colour inside my inventory. once I was done restarted moving.

I laid down inside the carriage full of goods and took out some weights to have a light training.

It will take us a day to get to our next destination.

It took us a day to arrive at Rayaka village, I guess that's the village of Magna, I never met the guy, but it's a given since I haven't looked for him either

Besides, he is supposed to be a snotty brat right now , he won't even have a grimoire.its best if -

"Ughh! watch where you are going,you idiot!"

Someone bumped into me ,I would have fallen but training like hell for two years ,which resulted in the opposite party being flung back.

The boy rubbed his face in pain

"Are you alright?!" I asked , as I held my hand foward for him

*Slap*

"I don't need your help, bastard" the boy said as he started running away again

'Hmm, such an impolite guy' I thought

"Hmm!"

'Where is my wallet" I started looking in all my pockets

"Damn it! hey you! come back here" I shouted at the boy, who had the guts to give me a mocking expression.

I gave chase, nobody had the right to steal from me,utilising the extreme speeds I had gained with my training I was able to bridge our distance in a moment,

I appeared In front of the boy, who also summing a small ball of fire and threw it at me,

"Hmph, you will have to do better then that" I mocked him ,I crushed the ball of fire in my hands, it was measly and weak, nothing to be scared about.

"Eh! don't you dare underesti- gh!!"

The boy was about to begin his monologue before I punched him lightly n the gut, he buckled over and the wallet fell

I took it from the ground and began checking the contents, once I was sure that everything was where it should be,I started walking away

"Ghh! wait"

The boy shouted at me, any other kid would have tried by now

"What is it! you want some more!" I asked him, scaring the boy a little

"No- I mean ,this ain't over,I will pay you back for this" he pointed at me.

I didn't pay him any mind and walked away,I wanna eat some good food, lets go to Yabi's restaurant and have some meat and buns.

I thought and merrily left for my food, forgetting about the kid as my mind began filled with thoughts of food,

I have gained a big appetite for food
