Chapter 50 Vegetation!
*Yawn~*
With a slight stretch, the light from the morning suns descended directly on Elric waking him up
*Kacha!*
"Ahh~ that feels more comfortable" said Elric as his back made a cracking sound.
Looking around him, he discovered that Davis and Alvin were still sleeping not too far from him, deciding not to wake them up, with slow movements he quietly crept off his rock
Taking a few steps forward, Elric slowly took a deep breath,
"A.I. chip scan the surroundings!"
To prevent any unexpected accidents Elric quickly ordered the A.I. chip.
[Yes host!]
[Commence scanning...]
[Scanning complete!]
Soon after a few seconds, the results were directly transmitted into Elric's head
"I knew there was something off about this place! unfortunately it's a shame that our current predicament doesn't allow me to stay and study this place"
Going through the information Elric had a look of regret on his face.
According to the A.I. chips scan, their current location was covered by some radiation, which according to it staying here for a long time might have adverse effects on genes
It's just that their supplies were currently not allowing them to stay if not that Elric
Could help but start digging in the ground Immediately in hopes of clues
"However, this is a serious problem, if we don't get to freedom town quickly, we might probably collapse due to hunger on the way"
Thinking of Alvin and George whose physique was still the same as that of a normal human he Immediately gave up hope of waiting a few more days to study this area.
*But it does seem like I should wake them up, after all, we need to get moving*
So deciding to mark this place on the map for later exploration, Elric decided they should start heading out.
"Young master there you are, we were wondering where you went"
Just as he was about to turn back to wake them up, he suddenly heard the voice of Alvin behind him.
It turns out that when he and Davis woke up, they didn't see Elric lying on the rock he stayed on last night making them worry something bad happened while they were asleep
Breathing a sigh of relief, Alvin quickly called George and Davis over
Soon before Elric knew it, the four of them had already gathered together.
*Ahem!~*
Clearing his throat, Elric began to talk discuss with them his discoveries and plans for today
"Haha yes I agree, let's head to town first we can always come back earlier"
Although curious about the radiation and its effects, George who at this moment already had bags under his eyelids from staying up all night, was in no mood to stay longer.
*Grrr~*
*Grr~*
Just when George was done speaking, the sounds of Alvin and Davis stomachs on the side suddenly grumbled indicating their answer
"So it seems like you all agree? If so let's head out, we have to make it back before nightfall if we want to get something to eat today if not they might not let us enter the town due to the curfew"
Seeing that everyone had already agreed, Elric nodded in satisfaction. Although he knew he could unilaterally decide the course of the day due to his young master position, Elric knew that this might cause their dissatisfaction to increase later on the line so he promptly dismissed it.
Allowing them to participate in planning activities would make them feel important thus increasing their sense of identity and loyalty to him
And seeing them with smiles on their faces after this breed discussion Elric knew that his method was effective.
although he reincarnated and became their young master, Elric didn't once think that the title of young master would eliminate all probability of betrayal from them hence he had been doing his best to cultivate feelings, and George and the rest who had no idea just thought he had changed to the loss of his father and the village
"Alright! Let's head out" shouted Elric, discarding such distracting thoughts, Elric felt his mental power had recovered completely overnight, so summoning his spell book back from George's hand, he immediately left the way back to freedom town.
.....
Hours passed, and the journey was an uneventful one, the only thing which made the journey a bit pleasant was George who kept cracking jokes along the way
Goerge: young master, why did the din don bird cross the road?
Elric: why?
George: to get to the other side! Hahaha
Unfortunately, such jokes got old fast making the journey once again boring
"Young master!"
However, just after a few minutes George once again called out Elric's name
"Goerge!"
"If it's another din don bird joke I swear I'll carry you back and throw you to those ghosts!"
Seeing George was about to speak, Davis Immediately interrupted him for fear that he said another joke
It's just that George just ignored him and pointed forward
"Look! It's leaves! Didn't you say the closer we are to town the more vegetation? Then we're definitely close to town!"
With an excited look on his face, George Immediately attracted everyone's attention
In front of them at this moment, was a large tree, although it was just one, considering they hadn't seen anything thing of the same nature through their journey so far, it suddenly gave them hope of reaching town today
Looking at the tree in his front, Elric suddenly realised they had been waking for a while now, thinking of this he Immediately brought out his map to see how close they were to town
"George it seems your right, according to this, if we continue at this speed there should be no problem making it to town by evening"
Putting away the map, Elric gave them a thumbs up in confirmation
"Haha! Then let's go! I suddenly have more energy. Let's hurry up!"
"When we get home I'm having one bottle, no two bottles, no three bottles of wine!'
With a large laugh hugging Elric George could help but express his excitement
And seeing him so happy, even Alvin and Davis on the side smiled knowing that their journey was almost over
"Alright you guys, but like I said before almost done is not the same thing as done"
"Now let's pick up the pace, go to town, and get well deserved some food and relaxation!"
Said Elric as he led them at a now increased pace towards the town.
