[Rebecca's Room]

"What?"

This were the words that Kaido muttered when Rebecca said something about joining him, for him it feels like someone just made a joke out of it

"You heard me! I'm joining!..... I can't stop you right? Then I'll join you!" Reasoned Rebecca

After hearing this Kaido rubs his forehead easing some of his stress

"Fine! Do what you want!"

As he said this he went outside of the room and goes into the streets

Hearing Kaido's approval Rebecca started to packs up and arrange everything that is needed to arrange like updating the guild about her situation, talking to the inn owner, and also taking some money that she saved in the bank

[Unknown Location]

After finding some tight lid places Kaido teleported to the location o the village that will houses the former slaves

When he got there he staggered a little and noticed that a great amount of energy is taken from his body if he used instant teleportation

"Ehehe! This setback is really something! I should use this only when necessary" he said while sweat trickled down his face

After a few walks out of the forest Kaido saw a big wooden platform at it's entrance saying "Esper Village"

"Wait what!?"

Seeing the name Kaido was perplexed on what he should feel right now

In a moment after seeing Kaido's appearance outside of the village Melfina approached him

"Hey!" She said as she waves her hand needlessly

When she approached him she asked

"Did you just arrive? So what brings you here?"

Seeing Melfina running off to somewhere Okou, Fez, and Mea also arrived at the entrance

Seeing Kaido having a conversation with Melfina, they immediately came closer

"Kaido-sama! Welcome! But what brings you hear? Didn't you already check out this place yesterday?"

"What sama?" Reacted Kaido

"Ah! Thats because since you have us a he and a field to work on we can say that you own us and this piece of tiny land is in your hands meaning your like a lord of one village!" Said Fez

"Not only that but Melfina is also teaching us about how to fight!" Added Okou

"Fight?" Asks Kaido

"Yes! Somehow Melfina said that when she was observing you during the day of our last day as slaves you were keep mumbling about an assassin army which is skilled in all roles of the fighters and supports inthis world" said Fez

Hearing that Kaido turned his sharp gaze at Melfina but she quickly evaded it by looking the other way

"You dare!" Grumbled Kaido

Seeing the tension Mea interjected in

"Um excuse us  but if you would like you can have a breakfast with us! Then you can tell us what you needed" offered Mea

When Kaido was about to reject his stomach suddenly grumbled

"How did you know?" Said Kaido with a wry smile

Hearing this question Mea smiled at him

"Woman's intuition!"

Receiving that reply Kaido just gave it up and do what he needed to do

When they arrive at a small house and sat at the dining table kaido realized about the sqeeky clean of the place

"So you guys cleaned it up!" Said Kaido as he stuffed his mouth with food

"Well yeah! But there are still few problems here and there but I think we can handle it" said Okou

"Cause if we don't handle it ourselves we won't be worthy to fight beside you when it is needed" said  Fez

As they conversed Kaido told them that he was going to Screa Port City

To people who has no connection to this, they felt that this was normal but for people like Melfina she knew than Kaido was going to start his mission to save his sister

When Kaido was about to leave the village during the night Melfina approached him saying

"Thank you!"

Hearing this Kaido became confused

"Huh? What are you thanking me for?" He asks

"Your going to search for my sister right? Then I hope you succeed" said Melfina

After understanding what she meant Kaido faced her and scratched his head

"Look! I'm going to leave tomorrow so if you want you can follow and be my companion... After all I can seem to be confident when she is around" said Kaido

"She?" Said Melfina as she tilted her head

"You'll know tomorrow"

As he said that Kaido instantly disappeared

[Guila Town, 9:00 pm]

When Kaido returned he immediately went roof to roof with a step

When Kaido found a relaxing place he started to spread out his own presence and little by little improving his perception

As he spread out his aura few strong mages in the town sensed it and they immediately couldn't recognize if this was a work of Mana it something else

Atop of the vicinity Kaido was mumbling something

"4 strong mages inside the town, 2 warriors too, also there are about 1245 people in this town.... It's quite big after all" he said

[Guila's Town Gate]

As the mist rose from the ground because of its early temperature in the environment that causes this most

While standing outside Kaido was accompanied by an elf wearing hooded robe

As they saw Rebecca approaching them she immediately greeted both of them

"Hey I'm sorry I'm late! I need to prepare something after all"

When she said that she noticed Melfina looking at her

"Hey nice to meet you I'm Rebecca and you are?.....' asks Rebecca

"Melfina!"

"Oh Melfina! Alright I'll remember that" said Rebecca

As both sides conversed Kaido looked at Rebecca before asking

"So what kind of preperations did you make?" He asks

With this question Rebecca looked smug

"I got ourselves a wagon but don't worry I'm going to drive! I just don't want out first journey is our travels by walking! I'll be quite troublesome" said Rebecca

As she said that a horse carriage stops infront of them

"Alright everybody on board! were heading straight to Screa Port City" announced Rebecca
