Conqueror

Chapter 27



"Stand up, I'll promise I will help her" Fendrel said.

Hearing Fendrel, Carl almost cried. "Thank you, noble sir."

"My name is Fendrel, so stop calling me noble sir." He shifted his gaze to Lavender, then asked. "Lavender?, can you heal her."

Lavender take a closer look at Sansa, before saying. "Your majesty, I can only closed her wounds, and replenish his blood lost, so she won't be in danger anymore. But If I do that the burnt skin would also heal, but since the restoration spell is not a top grade skill. It can't heal the burnt skin completely, and would left a scars behind"

Of course Fendrel know what Lavender wanted to indicate. To woman's, beauty was their life, especially in this world. If you want to rise in society, you need to be powerful, or beautiful so that you can catched the eyes of some powerful man, who can protect you and give you a better life.

"You heard it yourself" Fendrel said to Carl.

Of course Carl know what they were talking about, for him he didn't mind, he love Sansa not just for her beauty, but also on her personality. But he can't say it would be the same fo Sansa, but he doesn't have a choice. 'What is the benefit of her beauty if she dies' If this was the town, she can be healed fully without any scars left behind, as long as you have money, since there was a priest in the town. Healing spells can't treat a scars, since its not considered a wound or injury.

"Please, Sir Fendrel.... Heal her" Carl decided.

Fendrel nodded, and ordered Lavender to heal the woman. Suddenly a book materialize in Lavender's right hand, It flipped pages by pages before stopping. The trio was shocked, when the book suddenly popped out, the book was radiating a purple light and looked mystical. The thief on the back swallowed his saliva, upon seeing the expensive looking book.

"Restoration!" Lavender cast the restoration spell. A greenish light covered Sansa, like a gentle blanket. All of her wounds then began to close, the bleeding stopped. She began to regain some vitality, also all of his burnt skin began to dry and fell off.

After some time, the restoration spell lost its effect. Sansa was also fully healed, but the of the trio, was not that of happy. On the contrary the two at the back felt pity for Sansa, only Carl didn't mind Sansa's appearance too much.

"Although she is now okay, she still need to rest, since my spell can't really fully healed her" Lavender said with a calm and apathetic voice. If not for his majesty's ordered her, she wouldn't even care about them at all, even if they were her fellow human.

"Lavender, heal the three" Fendrel suddenly said.

"Your majesty?!!" Merry, Lavender, Purd and Glecs, looked at fendrel in bafflement.

Especially Lavender, 'although the three behave like a good puppy. They are still a threat to the village, His majesty should know about this fact' But she can't disobey Fendrel, so she can only reluctantly healed them.

"Sir Fendrel, you don't need to heal us. I am grateful enough that you healed my comrade" Carl said, feeling embarrass.

"No, considered this as a help from a friend. You know, I'm kinda interested with you guys, humans." Fendrel said. "Lavender heal them"

Lavender can only gritted her teeth, and healed the trio reluctantly. After healing them the trio immediately regained their vitality. They thank Lavender, but she only snorted at them, the trio can only smiled wryly at each other.

"What about spending the night with my village first, before you go back to your place." Fendrel offered to them, the thief and the knight immediately agreed. Carl was by his two companions, who immediately agreed without a second thought. But he also doesn't have a choice so he agreed eventually.

Lavender on the side almost fainted in anger, not to Fendrel, but to the trio. She doesn't know but she hated the trio, they were a bad news to her.

-----

Upon entering the village, the trio were astonished. The village was so organized and clean, its not like the village of the monsters they know, its more like a of a humans.

The trio can't help but swallowed, and become nervous, when the trio saw the organized soldiers lining up on the street. Looking at them like looking at their prey.

"Captain, I think this is a bad idea." The knight whispered to Carl.

"Don't worry they won't attack us" Carl reassured his companion.

Looking around Carl saw a variety of monster, but this savages monster that would attack any humans it saw, was like a trained and disciplined soldiers in this village. Even the goblins who would run upon seeing a human, was looking at them fiercely.

He looked at Fendrel with interest, 'Where did this person come from, to train this savage monster, was really unthinkable to him.'

They also saw some goblins and orcs, who act and dressed like a civilized person. All the information they saw today, was really shattered their understanding of the world. They wouldn't even be surprised anymore, if they saw a dog suddenly talking to them.

------

The night has come, the trio also settled in one of the houses of the village. It used to be a house of some goblin family, but the father of that family offered them to rent their house with 100 gold coins. The two almost fainted in anger from the blatant robbery. Only Carl was amazed by the unusual behavior of the goblins.

"Captain, this village is really unusual. It shattered all of my understanding about monsters" The knight said.

"I know Bogish, I'm also dumbfounded, but aren't they interesting. I never knew goblins and orcs, can also act like a civilized race." Carl said.

"Nah, captain, you only looked at them favorably because they helped us. But as a human being they are a threat, especially in our village just near here" Bogish and Carl became silent, what Lask said make sense. But Carl was not an ungrateful person, who will betray the person who save them.

Carl looked at the two seriously, and said with an authoritative voice. "Bogish, Lask promise me to not betray this village. If you did, although I see you two as brothers... I will personally kill any of you, if you betray this village. Because that's also equivalent as betraying me" The two sucked in a deep cold air, before nodding.
