Chapter 56 Lost

Chapter 56

30 minutes later.

You may be wondering why it took us so long if Andrey had everything planned, because it always happens that if you go out in a hurry you forget something and he is no exception, so after a few minutes of brainstorming we finally managed to find out everything we were missing.

"So where are we going now?"

As I asked about our destination to Andrey, we move down one of the main streets heading towards the exit and by the level of occupancy, I would say it's around noon due to the adventurers continuously entering from beyond my vision.

"I've already told you we're heading straight for the exit, I've sent to prepare the camels we got loot the other day for our departure."

Returning to his usual cold words Andrey answered me, followed by this at last we reached the "entrance" although there is no wall, so there is no gate, I guess it will be the imaginary entrance, in front of us is the bridge we used to enter and the one that connects this city with the desert.

"Alright, that loot thing applies to everything we gain from the desert, even if it's from the mercenaries."

"Yes, things are only secured inside the cities, outside these, it's no man's land and it's not because they are useless rulers, but because there are not enough troops to keep order outside the borders of the cities"

As we move across the bridge and talk about this, a man comes into my vision waving his hand towards us and next to him are two camels tied up.

"I guess then the ones keeping order are the adventurers and mercenaries to a lesser extent?"

"well yes, thanks to these measures there is an increase in adventurers and mercenaries, whatever let's go get the camels."

Finishing his explanation we move faster towards the camels and the man still moving his arm, I don't know how he doesn't drop the truth.

"Master Andrey, over here, over here!"

Arriving nearby, the man's cries ring in my ears which drum, if he has a lot of energy.

"We saw you Nejed, now how are the camels?"

Cutting through his energy quickly and efficiently, he directs the conversation where he wants it.

"They have already eaten, drank and even healed them in case they had any internal illnesses or injuries."

"perfect, Nea take the one on the right, there is no time to waste, time wasted is time Ekaterina can show up."

With those words she moves quickly towards one, climbs on and before she can process all this she is already advanced with the camel.

"Better if you hurry, I don't think I'll wait for you."

"Yeah, I better go, bye Nejed."

Giving him a small goodbye I hop on the camel which obviously has a saddle and start chasing Andrey's trail.

Sif pov.

"Up."

"Let's go up!"

Coming out of my comfortable dream where I fantasize about the master's sculpted body, amazingly he has well marked abs, heh, heh, heh, heh and I could know that thanks to the deal I made with that drunk midget, I find myself face to face with an unfamiliar face.

"He just told you, but I don't have a dime."

Still without lifting my body from the place where I am lying, I tell the absolute truth to my kidnapper.

"You're a wolf, obviously you don't have coins, that's beside the point, the thing is that I forgot to pick you up yesterday when I took Nea home and then I went to pick you up at the smithy, even though it was late then I brought you to my house"

Hearing the words of my kidnapper everything falls into place and more so now that I finally get to see the room, this has a dark wooden floor that also extends to the walls place where there were pictures of her and Andrey when they were little, in the room there is a large double bed, a huge closet with this shape I_I that in the middle is a full-length mirror, a dresser/desk with several books on it is adorning a corner of the room and next to it there is a chair, but what stands out most of this room is undoubtedly the amount of swords that were lying all over the place.

"Yes, you have finished analyzing my room, we can get going, you to meet your master and me to see how Andrey is yesterday he wasn't home when I arrived with Nea."

Well, he noticed, but it's not my fault, you know, it's hard to analyze a place with a wolf's eyesight, I have to move my head all over the place... Yes, it's hard my life.

"I'd like to have breakfast, but it seems this is more urgent."

"obviously it's more important, then let's go."

Wait, he's seriously going to ignore my hint and we're going to leave without breakfast really, I don't understand his concern... It's not like the master could go ha, ha, ha most likely he would even forget that he has to take for a trip and would have to come back.

Moving on from those thoughts I get up from the pillow I was lying on courtesy of Ekaterina and we quickly get going, as we leave the room we find a stone corridor with a red carpet on the floor and several pictures on the walls showing that we are in a fortification.

"Since we are walking this way, where do we meet?"

To cut the silence he started a casual conversation, come on, with the master we never run out of topics to talk about.

"We meet in the central fortress of Chistaya place where the governor of the city lives."

Answering with total naturalness, he continues moving through the corridors and corridors to a point where I no longer know where we are.

"I guess this is obvious, but to clarify your family is the ruler of the city, right?"

Finishing those words, we finally make it out of those backroom-like corridors of hell into the freedom of the streets.

"Obviously, our family has been in charge of this city for decades, even when the Muscovite empire was standing."

Noticing the flash of pride in his voice, he finally made it past this mask of coldness he had, yes it seems this being cold runs in the family, except when there's the master and his bad elemental synergy or when there's Andrey at those times the mask comes off.

"Anyway let's hurry up the pace, I have a bad feeling about those two, yes I'm also counting Nea although it seems you don't share it despite being her relic."

Oh wow, what is this level of worry that even makes her believe in premonitions; even so, it's useless to the master.

"On my master's part you needn't worry, he can't move with a map even less without it."

"you forget something, he has bought a map at the adventurer's guild."

I don't know why he's trying to make me doubt, but it's not going to happen.

"Even if he has a map, he's too bad at logistics, it would take days to get materials for a trip."

"Andrey always has supplies, as he spends much of his time in the desert these days looking for a scorpion."

Just coincidences... Just that... OK, this alone maybe a problem.

"We'd better hurry, don't you think and you know to get to lunch with them."

Blurting out those words I increased my size and get ready for a quick run.

"ha, ha, ha, ha of course how could we leave them alone in that huge house."

With a very unintelligent excuse, two shadows speed across town.
