Hero Of The World

But the old man continued to say, "However we will still stay here for a week, as there will be a sort of a celebration in the whole city, at the win of the humans once again, though I doubt that the attack this time was as easy as that, don"t you think so too?"

"Yeah, I had thought the same, but in the end we knew what they had wanted this time" Ned replied, and although he suspected the old man already knew he was still going to tell him.

"knew what?" Alaster said. And although he heard the reports of the demons disguising, he wanted to hear it from Ned"s mouth.

"Those demons had found a way to bypa.s.s the guild card, and disguise as humans"

"Yes I already heard about that" Alaster said.

"but I suspect there are not many who have such an ability" Ned said, and the old man nodded, clearly agreeing with him.

Although he knew the old man must have heard of how Amelia was deceived by the demon general and accused him of being a demon, he wasn"t going to speak about it himself, he gave her his word after all.

"Well then you should go rest, I am sure you are tired from this fight" The old man said and buried his head working on the papers in his desk.

"Tomorrow the whole town will be organizing a festival for you, so today you should just rest." He added once Ned was near the door.

Ned when he got out, went outside the inn and headed to the library, he wanted to read some books about the magical beasts in this world, and the demons so far identified.

And since Lori was not working at the inn currently, she joined him, and he had to read at the library instead of just copying the book and reading it in his room.

The whole day pa.s.sed like that, until it was time for dinner and they headed to the inn.

And found that the old man was preparing the table with plates of food for the three of them.

Lori went to help him, while Ned just sat on a chair.

Soon they all started eating.

And Lori asked Ned about his arm, "How did you get hurt? Is it a serious injury?"

"It was in the fight against the demon general." Ned said. He was sure she would hate Amelia if he said the real reason.

But the old man giggled a bit at his words.

However Lori was paying attention to fact he fought the demon general.

"Are you crazy, you fought against a rank 6?" She said with disbelieve on her face.

Displeased with her reaction Ned glared at her, "What did I say about underestimating a warrior?"

"Even if you say so, you are just a rank 4, how is it normal to fight a rank 6?"

"Okay, first of all I"m now a rank 5. And second I fought him with my friends and our general was the one to kill the demon eventually."

"You are a rank 5, that was fast, you may really be the one grandpa is waiting for" but she was relieved to hear the demon was killed with the help of other people.

But then she remembered that Lucy had fought with him too and she was internally displeased.

Gathering her courage she said, "How about tomorrow we go together so that I can show you all the places with good food?"

Ned was originally going to ask her to come with him. As she said that he had to make it up for her when he got back.

He thought that he"ll buy her some good food.

"Yeah sure, I was going to ask you out myself as a compensation for you" he said as he continued eating.

"It"s a deal then" she happily replied.

While the old man through this whole exchange was just smiling kindly.

After eating and excusing himself, Ned instead of meditating, allowed himself to sleep this one time.

.........

Unbeknown to him, there was a set of eyes looking at him from the sky.

The owner of the said eyes, was a female of striking beauty. One may say she has a celestial level of charm.

With light blue eyes and white hair that reached just a bit past her shoulders, and sculpted facial features. She was incredibly tall for a female at around 180~182cm.

From the robe she was wearing above a simple black shirt and dark blue skirt, you can tell she had a nice figure with all the correct curves.

"This kid is something else alright" she mused to herself.

She has been watching him since she woke up from her deep sleep.

And she knew that he wasn"t training the same way as every person on this continent.

"Since he wants to train with that old man, then I"ll let him do so for the time being. And then I will take him on a trip to train him well. That rank 8 could help him train his swordsmanship which is something I"m not well delved in." She concluded as such and stopped looking at him and simply vanished from there.

This whole city was under her sense, she wasn"t afraid of someone hurting him as such.

.........

When the morning had come, Ned washed his face, ate breakfast, and wore some good clothes for the occasion, and wore a special sling for his "broken" left arm.

He had bought it the last day.

And then along with Lori he went to enjoy his day eating and taking the view of the city.
