The trip turned out rougher than Daniel had originally anticipated due to the unforgiving weather out at the sea on this particular day. Unfortunately, his companion didn’t seem to fare very well in boats, and he could tell now why he had such disdain for them when they met back at the forested region of the Hargeon Port. After such a tiring and tedious trip, the swordsman found himself a little shaky as he tiredly lumbered off from the ship. It didn’t help the fact that both were literally soaked in rain water either, so it was not a smooth sail for either of them. The question here was if they should either risk getting sick while searching for Zeref, or play it safe and search for him tomorrow at the risk of losing him? His vengeful conscious wanted him to press on, but his body refused and it seemed like his companion would last much longer like this.
“We will begin our search tomorrow, Mahanla. For let’s get to somewhere to stay for the night… I am just about as exhausted as you are. Continuing our search like this is a bad idea under this kind of weather.” Daniel spoke, “It will do neither of us good if one of us gets sick.”
Whether his monk companion agreed or not, Daniel began to head into the seemingly quiet capital of Sindria illuminated by several streetlamps. From there, he actively started searching for a place to stay, but most of the pubs and Inn seemed to be unavailable for vacancy for the two unfortunate travelers. Most of them were already filled up with bunch of sailors drinking their hearts out obliviously while evil snuck by underneath their noses, but in the amidst the thick curtain of heavy rain, Daniel saw a familiar figure walking down the streets despite the horrid weather. However, it was difficult to tell whether that boy really was the person, and as he got closer, it indeed turned out to be Alexandra, a promising boy knight that he trained with no more than a few weeks back. Well, this certainly was an awkward situation. Daniel – or perhaps ‘Judas’ told him and his friend that he would be going after Zeref and Octavian, and to think that these two evil men were in this city with Alexandra in it made him a little fearful for the boy who would plunge himself to battle against these demons without a second thought despite their power.
That is if he found them first.
“A bit of a horrible weather to be taking a midnight stroll. Don’t you think, Alexandra?” Daniel greeted.
