VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

"When will you come back then?" Before Miss Rin boarded the carriage with Misha and Elio, she hugged her pretty granny warmly. Find more to read at empire

"Who knows?" And with a rather happy smile, she said her goodbyes to this kind couple.

"Weee-hyehyehye~!"

The horses were ready to depart.

The night that they spent with this old couple was a new kind of experience for Alex and Elio.

They were quite different from a normal couple. They were even different from his parents.

The life that they had lived was different, the things that they did in their lives were different, the things that they had experienced in their lives were different, even the way they had grown up was different.

The old couple did not have any children, they could not… sadly.

But they had been together. And they were happy.

They had a home, and they had helped many that they had come across in their lives.

They did not have their own children, but many players who lived in this village, as well as the children that the villagers had all knew this couple, and were quite close to them.

They were famous in their village, and they were loved by many.

Even though they did not have the kind of strength they had in their prime, even though they could not have the kind of adventures that they used to have, they were happy in this small place.

"Alex?"

Elio had learned a thing or two from the old granny, and he had obtained a unique book from her as a gift.

"Yes, gimme a minute please."

A red diary that belonged to her in her younger days.

It was a diary that contained a lot of things that she had learned as a mage, notes, her life experiences, stories… it was a special item that had magical pages so that one could write three times more in those pages.

Additionally, one could add more pages to this diary by materializing their own Mana– a difficult process, but something possible.

"I don't think it will have any meaning at this age, dear."

While granny helped the young boy, the young girl, his partner, helped the older man.

"I'm not saying you should have children… well, you can if you want to. Granny is still in great shape, but it is up to you.

This works. It is possible. And it is up to you."

They deserved happiness, as well as pleasure.

She knew they were happy. They were genuinely happy, she knew that. But if they wanted, there could be more happiness, more bliss in their life.

An injury of the past did not have to necessarily be a full stop in their personal lives.

She did not know the kind of agony they might have felt in their younger days, just how much they might have suffered together to become indifferent to those feelings.

"Our happiness is our right. No one can take it from us, and we do not have to give in to any external factor either."

She said her goodbye to the old man, she received a bitter smile from the granny as she said her goodbyes as well, and then, she bowed and thanked both of them before boarding the carriage.

She was the only one who had stayed behind after saying their goodbyes. And now that she had told him all that she wanted, she climbed the carriage.

And before they departed, from the driver's seat at the front of the carriage, she gave them a last warm smile.

"You deserve that bliss."

It was just sad that they could not express their affection, their love in the most simple way, connect their bodies, and experience the most basic mortal bliss through the act of lovemaking.

They were amazing people.

And she genuinely wanted them to be happier together.

"Hiayaa!"

Their time in this village was short, but they had a fun night with these fun people.

"Ba-byeee grandma Warma! Grandpa Bill!"

Misha also liked these people.

She was shy around people and took a while to get used to them, but she knew them from her past, so it did not take her long to get used to them.

She was also not sad that they were leaving so early.

Last night was fun for her.

"Miu!"

"Muuuu!"

"Take care of those little ones~."

Granny had strangely gotten attached to the slime and little Gecko.

One was as curious as a one year old child, while the other smiled so happily that it seemed like sadness, or any kind of negative emotions did not even exist for it.

"Chirp~!"

[{ They are nice people. }]

"Aren't they?"

Even Sera found these two unique among the hundreds of people she had seen since she became his servant.

"They are fun."

Elio was leaving another fun bunch, and once again, he was carrying with him something that would remind him of them.

This diary contained what she had experienced and learned.

She was not able to complete this magical diary… but, now that it belonged to him, he was going to do what she could not.

...

-Tab-dak. Tab-dak.

...

[{ Master, I see some abnormal activities ahead. }]

"Abnormal activities?"

The horses were fast, it was early morning, and the road to the next destination, the town of Yuta, was pretty much straight.

There was no forest and the solid path was well built.

There weren't any monster habitats around the village so, there should not have been any abnormal activities for a few more hours now.

But, if Sera detected something ahead on an open road, they surely were going to encounter something up ahead.

"Alex…"

"I know. I can tell something isn't right either."

The road was quite quiet.

There should have been more sounds around… but the straight road seemed like it was experiencing the silence right after some kind of incident.

"Halt."

As they traveled a little more, they saw the abnormal activities that the bird had informed them of.

"Kekeke, another bunny~? Aren't we lucky today~?"

And, this was quite a classic situation…
