Chapter 181 - Departure from the bandit camp Ch1

- You fell asleep on my shoulder and I carried you to this tent. - I answered her yawning and walking into the tent.

Watching her frown, I noticed how her cheeks turned slightly red as I did not want to ask her what she was thinking. I understood that she would not tell anyway, but would only become more embarrassed.

- How much did I sleep? - Keirin asked cautiously, trying not to look at me.

While thinking about her question, I did not look at the time, so I found it difficult to answer her question. Shrugging, I lay down on the bed and looked at the ceiling, I did not notice how tired I was.

- I don't know, but I managed to do a lot, looked around the camp, found more girls who were in a state I didn't understand. - I said, thinking about how to properly name the condition of the girls in that tent.

Casting a misunderstanding glance at me, the girl leaned back and stared at the ceiling with me. Both of us silently thought that it would be the first time in our union when I would leave alone.

- What else have you done? - Keirin asked without looking away from the ceiling of the tent.

Sighing, I told her about what I had done with the blades of blood and about the conversation with a girl named Auel.

And he said that he transferred strange girls who did not react in any way to another tent. How I found provisions that might keep them going until my return.

Listening to my words, I saw how Keirin tensed up when I talked about girls. This served as confirmation to me that it was better for her not to know about that diary.

- Thank you for taking care of these girls while I was sleeping. - The girl said with gratitude in her voice.

I could see how much Keirin was worried about the girls, feeling her breath and starting to relax, remembering that I had to leave the camp. I tried to fight off the urge to relax.

- Keirin, it's time for me to get ready and the sooner I leave the sooner I'll be back. - I said the words that were not easy for me

I heard a sigh from Keirin who turned to face me, anxiety and fear were read in her eyes. We didn't know what I would face in the capital of Avelei, the possibility that there was nothing left was great.

And the dome, which, as we thought, existing over the capital and the castle of avelei, could be just a legend.

I needed to be convinced of this or that myself, to see the city in which the representatives of the Avelei race lived.

Was I afraid of the possibility of not returning? I did not have such fears that something inside me said that everything would be fine.

It is possible that I was deceiving myself, but I hoped that everything would be as this inner voice tells me.

Watching me keep silent, Keirin got up from the bed and began to take out from her storage the provisions that she had prepared for us. Listening to the girl continue to annoy, I decided to close my eyes and let myself relax for a while.

For a while I fell asleep, ceasing to hear what was happening around, ready to sink further into sleep, I felt like someone was touching me. When I opened my eyes, I saw Keirin's frown staring at me without stopping.

- Trey you need to rest, stay for a couple of days. - The girl said tensely without taking her eyes off me.

As I thought about her words, I just shook my head as I got up from the bed and saw neatly folded packages of food and water.

Putting my hands on the packages, I began to place them in my storage. I was glad that there was a large storage in the armor of the harbinger, when I finished folding I looked at Keirin, she continued to frown.

- This is not the time to rest Keirin, you understand. - I answered her in a tired voice on her offer to stay.

It was evident from her that she was looking for a reason for me to linger, but I needed to move on.

And for her to stay with the remaining girls in this camp, smiling at the girl, I went towards the exit from the headscarf.

Leaving the tent, I carefully examined the camp; everything that was possible to do for protection was done by me.

Then everything depended on Keirin and the girls, about them I had fears that they might not hold back a possible attack or chicken out.

I did not hear anything from the tents where the girls were, most likely they were sleeping or trying to realize the changes that had happened.

A light wind touched the tents, which caused them to make strange noises. I heard footsteps from behind, I didn't have to turn around that it was Keirin who came out of the tent.

Glancing at her, she looked with surprise at the rack on which the bloody swords were located. She walked around the counter in a circle, examining the counter and throwing glances at me in which it was clear that she was thinking about something.

- Why do I feel from these swords not only your blood Trey? - Carefully asked Keirin examining the blades.

Perhaps due to the fact that she was my servant, she felt my blood and could feel in the swords not only her but also another.

- Because my blood shaped the blood of thieves into swords. - I answered in a calm voice.

In response to my answer, I noticed how her eyebrows rose, perhaps she did not know the technique that she had passed on to me then and did not know about such a possibility. For me it was strange, most likely I just forgot.

- Do you know that this is a violation of the rules and for this they can get killed? - With fear in her voice asked the girl.

I saw how her hands began to tremble, and fear was noticeable in her eyes, shrugging my shoulders. I had already violated many of the rules and laws of this world when I became the chosen Ges.

- Keirin, I've already broken a lot of rules, agree one less, one more, it doesn't affect anything. - I answered her while watching her look, which changed as I thought about my words.

She understood that I was right about the fact that I had already broken many rules, it was still difficult for her to come to terms with this.

I didn't know if it was because she was a light elf or because it hadn't been long since we became partners.

- You're right, but who knew before that? Stufons, robbers and caravan members, the first will never tell for fear of repercussions from the director. - Keirin began to explain her fears to me - Of the latter, only Fel and the head of the guard of the caravan know.

I understood that she was partially right, but I did not see the fear that the surviving girls would see the blades.

I had my doubts that there were strong magicians among them, so I didn't worry too much about the consequences.

- Keirin, I understand you have a lot of worries and concerns about keeping my secret. But understand to be constantly afraid and worry is also not worth it, we cannot constantly be afraid of everything. - Soothing tone I turned to the girl.

Listening to my words, I saw how Keirin was trying to find an explanation for her fears and concerns. Her eyes flickered from me to the racks and back to me, shaking her head and putting her hand to her head.

- Why is it so difficult with you Trey? Okay, but try not to overdo it, we are not ready to face other races and their armies. - Sighing, Keirin said in her voice it was noticeable that her fears had not gone away.
