The Craftsman

Chapter 22

Daedalus woke up early before getting ready to leave, getting cleaned and eating with Lightning. After he had gotten ready Daedalus began setting up a teleportation array that his master had given him. Daedalus decided that he wanted to keep the base he had made because he new were everything was around here.

Finishing with the array Daedalus put everything of actual value into his s.p.a.ce ring before saying to Lightning "Ok, Lightning it is time to go." which Lightning nodded and stood up prepared to leave.

As they began to leave the last edge of the forest Daedalus and Lightning looked back and sighed as they realised that they would not be back here for a time. Turning back around Daedalus and Lightning began walking towards a town in the distance.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

After walking for about an hour they had reached the front gates of the city. Walking forward to enter the city they were stopped by the sudden shout "Stop right there."

Looking up he could see on the top of the wall a man staring at him with hostility in his eyes. Stopping Daedalus waits as the man comes down from the wall to speak with him.

"Why are you bringing a wolf in to the city, are you trying to cause panic!?"

Daedalus hearing this said "Sorry sir is their any way that you would allow Lightning in with me?"

The guard quickly replied "Not unless you hand me that ring on your hand." in a low and quiet tone.

Daedalus hearing the guard became angry and said "I will be leaving then!" before beginning to walk back away from the town in a different direction from the forest. Before he could go very far the guard yelled "Men this man is a criminal catch him!" to which a large group of guards began running towards Daedalus.

Just as the group of guards reached him Daedalus equipped his sword and armour in an instant. This caused the group of guards to be surprised, however their leader had a horrified look on his face as he realised that the ring was actually a s.p.a.ce ring. The leader immediately "Retreat let us move from the way of this lord it would be bad if we did anything more that upset him!" Causing the guards to realise that the man they were running towards just before was likely stronger in both background and personal strength.

Daedalus seeing this sneered before putting his sword in its sheath before walking past the bowing guards with Lightning, he was no longer paying attention to the stupid guards it is not like he is a cold blooded murderer who would kill or badly injure for the slightest of slights.

For the rest of the day Daedalus and Lightning went around trying a whole bunch of different foods and seeing a bunch of interesting places, of course because of Lightning some people would not allow them in though not many. As they were starting to feel a little bit tired Daedalus took Lightning and they walked around asking were the best Inn was were they paid for the night and went to sleep.
