44 Chapter 44

"Come." she finally gave in and boarded the luxurious transport vehicle. The two of us followed and we saw the spacious innards of the cabin.

"This is a good coach, city lord." I commented as i tested the soft covering of the seats.

"Let's go." but the woman ignored me and uttered these phrases instead.

I watched the windows and could determine how fast the horses were travelling but surprisingly there were no bumps that accompanied our hasty departure.

"Do the city lord's horses understand the human tongue?" I couldn't help but wonder because I knew there was no one to guide the horses towards our destination. This world was indeed very magical.

"You have a nice city." I said once more in order to start a conversation with the city lord.

Although she was very serious and would always sport a frown from time to time, that only added a distinctive beauty unto her mien.

This was a favored daughter of heaven without a doubt. I immediately checked the meters for evaluation and the invisible numbers that reflected before my eyes brought a smile to my face.

Beauty meter: 9 out 10

Hotness meter: 9 out 10

Almost but not quite! Lucky me! HAHAHA!

"I don't like your kind, Shaman. So please shut your filthy mouth off until we arrive." the city lord's venomous words answered me candidly.

What a haughty bitch! Let's see how you maintain such aloofness later on. HAHAHA! And so with that said, only silence escorted the rest of our journey.

"Follow me." the city lord said after 5 minutes of travel. We have arrived at the largest mansion within the city and boy was I impressed, HAHAHA!

It was a great building filled with an archaic sense of art and style.

But the medieval scene did not appear colorless from what i had imagined it would. Lots and lots of bright lights shone on the vicinity of the castle

and I would wager that the same would be true behind the closed doors inside their halls.

"Welcome back, city lord!" a huge gatekeeper greeted the woman once we arrived at the double doors of this imposing home.

The owner of the house only nodded and then we passed through the gates into the abode. And when I entered the structure, I was indeed correct on my assumption.

No shadows abound every corner as a shining radiance blessed the halls in bright light. I could see balls of luminescence above us and wondered what powered these mystical things.

But alas, their enchantments were not something that I could comprehend with my naked eyes.

"Computer, analyze those balls." I instructed with my thoughts.

"They are using an unknown energy as their source. In layman's term, magic!" so you're here again Mr. Wise Sage. HAHAHA!

"Are you hungry, Shaman?" the city lord's melodic voice broke my reverie.

"The night is yet young, city lord. And I have absolute confidence in my healing skills. I'm sure we'll be out of here in mere breaths and no longer."

I assured my host as I followed her deeper into the mansion. The place was nicely decorated with mighty statues of men, women and armaments.

Our paths never missed the lifelike depictions of whatever these things were to the city lord and her people. And at times, we would pass by servants who would dutifully bow low in honor of their owner's presence.

"We are here." the city lord announced after ten minutes of quiet stroll. When I entered the room, my heart paused for a beat. HAHAHA!
