Chapter 590



Jun Ye Rim couldn’t help but faintly smile at the cheerful Plow. She had learned yet another story about Vincent’s compassion and how he changed the lives of many after offering them help.

‘Vincent is kinder than I thought. Now I know the reason why he bought all the five poor slaves and confronted the soldiers by giving the poor slaves a ride.’ She thought.

Iris and Lilith arrived with the drinks on a wooden tray a few minutes later. Even though it was cold outside and the view of snow made it feel cooler, the wind carrying a cold breeze wasn’t strong enough to spoil drinking and spending some girls-only time sitting outside.

The voices of merchants selling their wares and the passerby windowshopping or entering the Adventurers Guild made the area feel busy, yet strangely relaxing to hear the bustling noise of a populated city.

The group of five women and little fox enjoyed eating Clair’s sandwiches and drinking a warm cup of hot chocolate and warm milk for Plow. They discussed Lilith’s courage and then continued with various random subjects about their daily lives.

Lupa also mentioned a few stories about her journey with Vincent while Ester was sick. She even mentioned how Vincent had to take Ester to do her nature call.

Even though they wanted to smile, the embarrassed frown on Ester’s face made them reconsider acting as if it was a joke. Iris, Lilith, Jun Ye Rim, and Plow soon saw Ester pulling Lupa’s ear and saying how more lessons about being careful about what should and shouldn’t be said.

Jun Ye Rim moved her head and faintly smiled at the funny sisterly bond Ester, and Lupa had. Even though Jun Ye Rim didn’t share any of her stories and didn’t speak much, she started to feel more comfortable with the women and little fox beside her.

.....

The morning walk was starting to prove beneficial as Lilith showed more courage than usual, and Jun Ye Rim felt more comfortable being with others.

“Ouch, ouch. Okay, sister Ester. I made a mistake.” Lupa apologized before making it worse by saying, “I will not say something like how you slapped my mate because you were embarrassed.”

Ester blushed and let go of Lupa’s ear. She looked at the others gazing at her with interest and said, “I had no experience interacting with men back then because they considered me a freak before I ever knew my body could move the way it moves because of the blood flowing in my veins.”

“I... I never thought a man would be interested in a small-chested woman like me.” Ester grabbed the cup of hot chocolate and started drinking to stop talking.

*Clap* “That is a wonderful romantic past about meeting Vincent, hehe.” Lilith happily said while giggling.

“Huh?” Lupa said while her ears became alert, and she moved her head. “I heard a woman say no more than three times before saying let me go. Is she in trouble? Or do humans do these kinds of things?”

Ester, Iris, Lilith, Jun Ye Rim, and Plow looked in the direction Lupa was looking at. There they saw a man wearing ordinary dirty clothes pulling a woman’s arm wearing clothes similar to what an adventurer would wear.

The woman had a pouch attached to her hip and what appeared to be a wand sticking from her pouch. She was also wearing a warm cloak indicating she was prepared to visit a colder place or stay outside the city for a long time.

The woman was causing a scene, and many people were stopping to look at them, yet as always, they observed or left to report what they saw. The man was making it obvious he was a thug or worse while overpowering the woman with fear and his strength.

“No, that is definitely not what humans do. ” Ester answered promptly.

Lupa wagged her tail and became excited. She looked at Lilith and asked, “Sister Lilith, is a Baroness rank very strong?”

“Umm... yes, commoners or ordinary nobles without a rank will think twice before angering me. ” Lilith responded with a frown. After knowing how Lupa was interested in fighting the previous two men, she had a gut feeling Lupa wanted to fight with the excuse of saving the woman.

“I want to help that woman.” Lupa excitedly said, proving Lilith’s gut feeling correct.

*Sigh* Ester looked at Lupa and asked, “Do you want to teach that man a lesson?”

“Yes!” Lupa said while standing up. *Cough* “I mean, we need to help that poor woman.”

Jun Ye Rim began to worry every stop they took involved fighting. She started to question if she felt closer to them or if she had a lot more to learn.

On the other hand, Ester sighed again and helplessly shook her head, Iris giggled at Lupa’s honesty and noble attitude toward evil, Lilith touched the pocket where her identification card was as if she agreed to help, and Plow liked the idea of Lupa getting in trouble and making Plow received praise for being a good girl.

“What do you think we should do?” Asked Ester.

“We can take a short detour before going home. Vincent is taking care of everything thing after all.” Lilith said, showing she was with Lupa.

“I trust Vincent to save the lizard people and the baby.” Iris looked at the man pulling the woman and continued, “I don’t want to see people suffer. I think we should help.

“I don’t care what you all decide to do since I can’t fight. But I will stay with you all since I don’t have anything to do. I will keep you all company since you need me.” Jun Ye Rim said while showing signs of interest in helping the woman.

*Pho...* “Plow follows as well...” Plow didn’t speak happily now that Lupa’s idea was accepted and she wasn’t going to be in trouble.

After reaching a unanimous result, Iris picked up Plow, and they headed in the direction the man pulling the woman went. However, the two people they were following disappeared.

Lupa twitched her nose and tried to pick their scent. Plow tried as well, but she didn’t try for long before giving up. The two didn’t have the scent of the man pulling the woman, yet it didn’t deter Lupa from the possible fight she could enjoy.

Lupa started tracking the scent of males and females. After a while, she picked the five scents of a man and a woman beside each other who had passed the street recently.

One out of the five scents was suspicious as the male and female scents headed to a dirty alleyway. After arriving at a unanimous decision, they went to the alleyway.

Lupa stopped and said, “I smell the faint scent of fear up ahead. I can smell many people afraid in one place, but it feels different than the slave selling place.”

“Let’s continue with caution.” Suggested Ester.

Shortly, the group passed the alleyway and found themselves on an abandoned street. No person could be seen, and it was dirty, full of trash lying around.

Lupa ignored the bad smell and walked in the front. She pointed her finger at a door and said, “Here. The door is half open too.”

“Are we going inside? It’s not like we are Heroes or anything. This isn’t our job.” Jun Ye Rim nervously said after recalling what happened to her with the five classmates assaulting her. She was starting to become afraid she could experience a similar situation if they failed.

“Jun Ye Rim, I know after what you experienced, you will feel intimidated, but can I ask you to send your spirit inside to check what is happening?” Asked Lilith in an apologetic tone. Usually, Kazumi would do the scouting, but without her around, Jun Ye Rim filled her place as their scout.

Iris noticed Jun Ye Rim look conflicted, as if she was thinking about what she should do. Iris went in front of Jun Ye Rim. She smiled and said, “I am afraid too, but if I could use my power to help others, I would.”

“Jun Jun can help. Jun Jun is a good person.” *Pho?*

Jun Ye Rim felt pressured. She took a step back and saw Ester, Lupa, and Lilith silently looking at her. It was obvious they wanted to speak, yet they chose to give Jun Ye Rim time to make up her mind and choose what to do.

Jun Ye Rim summoned her flying snake spirit, Blemish. “Vision Link.” She said before her eyes started to change.

Jun Ye Rim’s eyes swapped color, the black became white, and the white became black. Her white pupils became slit like that of a snake. Her snake-like eyes glowed while Blemish’s now human-like eyes became dark, almost similar to Jun Ye Rim’s original pitch-black eyes.

The Vision Link was established, and Jun Ye Rim could now see from Blemish’s eyes and control it with her thoughts. It meant Jun Ye Rim couldn’t control her body, and she was stuck standing.

Using the skill meant Jun Ye Rim had trusted her body to Ester, Lupa, Iris, Lilith, and Plow without telling them to protect her during the time she was vulnerable.

Blemish entered inside the walls and traversed the stone. Blemish couldn’t see where it was currently, so Jun Ye Rim ordered it to poke half of its head to see the inside of the building with one eye. It would also make Blemish very difficult to discover.
