Chapter 108: Moving Day
The next day, early in the morning, I woke up because Ruby knocked the door to my room and called me.
"Roy! You have guests coming for you!"
"Tell them I"m not fully functional until three more hours. I"m enjoying my sleep here and unable to move from this bed. The gravity force of the bed in the morning is much heavier than any other time."
I have looked at the guests visiting me and think it would be okay to not meet them. They are just Ms. Wendy and Candy, along with Angela, Kayla, and Sophie who show them the way.
They are freely entering the building. Well, this is also Sophie"s house after all. It"s normal for her to bring the guests in.
Angela and Kayla are also regularly coming here. And they are currently playing with Hannah and Daniel whom I don"t know when he left this room.
Kids sure are early risers.
"Okay. I"ll tell them just that. But I"m not responsible if they want to enter your room and chat. By the way, when will we leave?"
"As soon as everyone is ready."
"Other than you, the others has prepared themselves."
"Then as soon as I"m ready. It"s just impossible for me to leave this bed at the moment."
Of course the bed I"m talking about is Blobbybed. I can alter the size and softness of the bed according to my will. That"s why this is the best bed ever!
I usually just sleep on a normal bed, but when I want to have a good rest, I would use Blobbybed to sleep on.
Since last night was hectic, I want to have a good night sleep before we move to Ca.s.sau. But I never would have thought that those two secret agents want to meet me early in the morning and disturb my sleep.
I have told her to go to the capital as soon as possible, so why would they come here looking for me? I thought our business was concluded last night?
I deactivate my Divine Vision and go back to sleep. Ignoring everything else that"s happening in the world.
...
...
"ROOOY! WAKE UP!"
"Ugh!"
While trying to sleep again, suddenly I felt a heavy weight jumping on me. It was Daniel.
"Ugh… what"s wrong Daniel?"
"Kayla say you need to wake up!"
…so they finally decided to send an a.s.sa.s.sin. How effective.
"Tell her I"m awake."
"Okay!"
Daniel left the room while I still haven"t left Blobbybed.
Let"s sleep again.
Is what I want to do, but there"s someone opening the door to my room again.
"Wake up!"
"I"m awake! You can ask Daniel if I"m awake or not!"
It was Candy. Seems like she can"t wait any longer so she barged into my room. Behind her, I see Ms. Wendy, Angela, Kayla, and Sophie.
"If I asked him, he would just say that you"re awake because you say so!"
"Well, I"m awake when he"s coming in so it"s not a lie. Anyway, what do you want coming here early in the morning?"
"It"s not early! The sun is already up!"
"If I"m still in my bed that mean it"s still early!"
Just after I said that my Blobbybed turned into a woman.
"Don"t worry. Now that I"m awake, he has no other choice but to wake up."
"Victoria!"
My bed turned into the Victoria"s human form. And then, from the open door, Daniel and Hannah saw her and greeted her cheerfully.
"Although we met last night, it"s the first time we communicate, so nice to finally talk to you, Candy."
"…the slime is talking!?"
It"s so loud now that I no longer have any desire to go back to sleep.
"So? What do you want from me?"
"We want to join you on your way to Ca.s.sau. We"ll split up midway."
I see. Since Ca.s.sau and the capital is in the same direction, they want to tag along with us.
"Okay, so… is that why you"re waking me up at this time?"
"Yes."
"Okay. We"ll move after I sleep again."
"No!"
d.a.m.n! Candy is too annoying. Can"t I just sleep in peace?
"Before we come here, we already rented a horse carriage. Let"s leave right now!"
"Fine! But in the carriage, don"t wake me up!"
Having no other choice, I left Melk together with them.
Seems like no one has any attachment left in the city.
Ms. Wendy and Candy are both secret agents. They being in Melk is probably because of a mission.
Kayla and Angela also seem to not getting along with the people in their villages. After getting their own apartment in the city, they never return back to their own villages.
Well, so am I.
The only one who made contact with me in my village is just the village chief. And it was just to give me some food. I know that he is annoyed by my existence, but because of his status as the village chief, he needed to make sure that at least the villagers know that he cares about the people.
Daniel and Hannah… they seem excited to go to another city. It"s also their first time riding a horse carriage.
Penny is just happy to see her daughter smiling.
As for Sophie and Ruby, they also don"t have any attachment in Melk.
Ruby"s daughter, Sam, also moved to Ca.s.sau. So it will be easier if they want to meet.
And Sophie, she said she doesn"t have any good memories in Melk other than sleeping with me. Since she can do it anytime she wants, she just said to at least have a bigger bed.
In the end, the one who had the most attachment with Melk was me. Since I"m the only one who knows the future and has seen it myself. Although the only friend I had is just the nodding guy and I have never met him in this lifetime. I only remember we always nodded at each other but I failed to remember his face. I just know that he has a generic young man face.
I hope Albert do a good job in preventing the tragedy.
For that, he needed someone he can trust. That"s why I hope these two secret agents are loyal to the kingdom.
Both Ms. Wendy and Candy are the target for Tim"s plan. He made a plan to frame a lot of secret agents and other important people in the kingdom to make the kingdom grow weaker.
In my previous live, he managed to do it, but just as the kingdom"s power weakening, Albert realized that someone is framing Ms. Wendy and the others.
I don"t know how, but Albert managed to clear out the traitors in the kingdom. He then tell everyone how Ms. Wendy and the others are on the side of justice and willing to die for the country.
Since I saw Candy"s name in the list of people targeted by Tim, I thought maybe I can trust her as well.
It has been two days since we left Melk. And Daniel started to get bored. So I taught him to play several card games to waste time.
I also perform several tricks as Clarence to alleviate his boredom. And I realized how amazing clowns are. They can make sad and bored people happy.
"Hey. Why aren"t you two hurried to the capital?"
On the way, I asked Ms. Wendy and Candy why they are taking their time to the capital.
"…we need to prepare ourselves mentally. We have never met the king before. All of our missions was given out to us by Tim. We are not in the position to meet the king directly." Ms. Wendy replied.
"Oh yeah. And you should probably hide yourselves even from your friends and other secret agents once you entered the capital. Just in case that some of them are actually part of the cult. There should be a hidden pa.s.sage that goes directly to the garden in the palace from outside the gate. I"ll draw you a map for that."
"How did you know all the secret pa.s.sages?" Ms. Wendy asked.
"I can see through things. Did you forget? Is that why you both no longer covering your body with your hands?"
"What?! Pervert!" Both of them are covering their important parts with their hands as soon as I said that.
"Don"t worry. It"s not like he always use that ability at all time. Although he will do it at least when you"re taking a bath," said Sophie covering for me. Good job!
"Sigh… I gave up on covering my body at all time. At least it"s good that he can see enemies from afar. Other than that, he mainly used his ability to look for an escape path," said Angela.
"Escape? Not looking for the enemies weaknesses but to look for escape? How cowardly!" Candy said.
We chatted a lot about anything because it took a while before we reached our destination.
After three more days, we finally reached Ca.s.sau and it"s time for us to split with Ms. Wendy and Candy.
"When you meet the king, tell him that Ninja will be coming soon. I probably needed to take care of few things before I can leave to the capital."
"Roy, we"re going to the capital?"
"What"s capital?"
Hannah seems interested in going to the capital, while Daniel doesn"t know what a capital is. We need to teach him many things.
Maybe it will be better if we all go to the capital. We can play a lot there and I can teach Daniel many things.
"Well, how about you girls? Do you want to go to the capital as well?" I asked everyone else.
"Yes!"
"I"m always curious about how the capital looked like."
Seems like everyone wanted to go as well.
"Well then, how about we go there later after we see our new house?"
I don"t know when we will have the chance to go to the capital again, so it"s better if everyone at least has visited there once.
"That"s how it is. Seems like I will be going there with everyone. So once you meet the king, tell him that I might be late because I want to go sightseeing."
"Okay. See you at the capital I guess? Bye!"
And we said farewell to Ms. Wendy and Candy at the front of the gate.
They left the carriage to us to return while they"re taking horses to reach the capital faster.
"Now, let"s go to our new home!"
