Kiada, Blood Servant System Reborn

Chapter 84: Gats And Crass

The ship pulled into the harbor, and we docked with no problem. Braum said he would take care of the Gem Hearts and get us our cash at the guild, but I asked for directions to the dungeon.

"Getting pretty late don't you think?" Braum asked me.

"Unless you feel like lending me every drop of your blood, I need to go and clear at least one room of the dungeon. Plus, I have all this build-up of Mana, I would really like to see what I can do with it besides the spells. I have seen Mei use her Mana when we fought Healia and monsters in the dungeon," I said, but all the color had drained from Braum.

"Head up the road, and once you get to the center cross street where all the vendors were, take a left and follow the path out of town. You were kidding about taking all my blood right? You just want to go and train, right?" Braum asked hopefully.

I smiled, trying not to make it seem too villainous, but it was really hard. I had this big man as white as a ghost, but sailors were superstitious people by nature.

"Don't worry, I don't need to take your or anyone else's as long as I can get to the dungeon," I said with a smile and turned to the others. "I would like to go alone, so I will walk with you, but then I will see you back at the Guild."

"No you aren't," Lesha said with the finality of a door closing.

"Listen, I just," But she cut me off again, grabbing me and pushing me roughly ahead.

"No, I will be going with you, the other girls will take our stuff back. Then you can buy me a sword on the way, and use your fancy Mana to protect me," Lesha said, pushing me forward.

The rest of the girls were remaining silent, and Corbit and Tim had already disappeared. This woman, I wanted to be mad at her, but I couldn't find a real reason to be. I had told her I was going alone, but she obviously thought she knew better. We might have to talk about this.

I started to walk forward, but then Lesha waved the girls off and then walked into an alley. I guess the talk would happen now, but when I got into the alley Lesha looked like she had just been whipped.

"K, I am really sorry, I don't know what came over me. I can't be acting like that in front of everyone, but you can't just leave me behind when you go to do dangerous things! That is no excuse for my behavior and I am sorry. I am just worried that you are taking more risks now because of your new strength, but we still need each other, okay? Please don't ask me to stay behind," Lesha said taking my hand, looking up into my eyes.

I stared into her blue eyes for a moment, letting myself feel her words. She wasn't wrong, but as Lesha had just said, that was no excuse for doing something like that. There are many ways that could be a lot more effective, but I had been leaving her out of things since Healia.

"I understand your feelings, and I will not deny you the option to come with me, but I think we need to figure out better ways of dealing with things, both of us. We also need to work on these outbursts and my red eyes, but let's get going and talk on the way."

I leaned in and kissed her, and she kissed me back. I took her hand and walked out of the alley with her.

I hoped the boys would stay with the girls, I should have been more specific. That would be the last thing that we needed right now is for them to get captured and I have to tear the city apart.

Luckily, when we got to the market, the girls were still there and Tim and Corbit were both with them. I let out a sigh of relief and walked over to the group that was ordering some meat skewers.

"You caught back up fast, but there is a smith just around the corner, and he knows your coming and there is a blade waiting. I paid for it already so you just have to pick the one you want from the three I convinced him to sell me at the same price. It will save you time, and we will have some meat from you to take with you one your way back from the smith," Time said with a grin.

"Thank you, that means a lot to have you on top of things like that. Excellent works," I said with a smile, but Tim turned away with a small grin.

I would have liked to tease him about it, but that would defeat the purpose of him getting things lined up. I grabbed Lesha's hand, and she followed me around the corner that Tim had directed us.

The smith was called you have got to be kidding. The two of us looked up at the sign, and Lesha started to giggle.

"Do you think he knows? I told Gastbo that it wasn't a unique name! I wonder who had it first?" I pondered, about to walk into the shop when a little man appeared.

The man shared a striking resemblance to Gastbo, except this man was in a lot better shape. The man gave us a warm smile after looking us up and down.

"Gats will already say that he came out first and that he picked his shop name first, but the only person that believes him is our mother! So you are the Infamous Kiada, Leader of the Crimson Legion Guild. The woman who single-handedly took on half a guild of muscle heads. Did I mention you had one hand tied behind your back while you did it, also doing a handstand? The stories of you are already running wild and growing longer by the day! I'm Crass, Gastbo's twin Brother!"

"Great, can we get the sword? We are in a hurry, sorry," I said, feeling a bit bad to have to leave after such a glorious intro.
