Chapter 166 Room And Board

Name:I Shall Evolve Everything Author:
"Follow" Delta said as she turned her back towards us, her posture in such a way that gestured us to follow. With Aoif at my back I followed my own hand intertwined in Aoif's.

Through the park we passed by numerous trees, the life force in them sturdier than I would have thought for a tree not evolved. It was fascinating to see nature filled with such magnificent species though it quickly passed by as Delta led us onto one of the main roads.

The road was almost completely empty save for the desperate, the taste of despair was heavy in the air as they eyed any passer by.

Just as they had dozens before they glanced their gazes towards us but quickly averted them.

One glare back from Delta was enough to cow them from ever even approaching us. Though again and again this situation repeated. It did become rarer as we walked further towards the middle of the city but it was still ever present. The weird thing was that I didn't see a single guard, just the barely luminescent shine of the lamps that littered the streets.

I put that in the back of my mind though as we approached some golden building and it became apparent that no low life was going to approach this place.

There were actual guards stationed here, it gave me pause. To be able to station guards here but not around the city where they were clearly needed. It painted a grim picture of the management of the city.

"Keys," one of the guards asked sternly as we approached. With a flick of her wrist two sets of keys were flashed to the guard before he stepped aside, his eyes flashing downwards as if in some sort of panic as he gestured for us to enter.

Another guard quickly rushed to his counterpart, a soft whisper echoed into his ear and he visibly relaxed.

The door rang as some bell was pushed with the door. I looked around at the inside of the hotel that we were going to stay at and couldn't help but find it excessively fancy.

There were numerous butlers just standing around, waiting on numerous guests that were taking their time eating and drinking expensive foods. Each and every guest had their own butler just waiting on them, the amount of patience and discipline that they needed to be able to do that was astounding. Especially with all the insults that they were backhandedly giving. It was peasant this peasant that and if it wasn't that it was how great they were compared to the rest.

However I just ignored all of that, it was their own problems and I didn't come here to interfere, only to observe and get a good night's rest.

I followed Delta up a flight of stairs and into a grand hallway with numerous rooms all situated hundreds of feet away from each other. It was weird how they did that, despite how small the building was on the outside the inside was hundreds of times bigger.

"You have any idea how they did this" I asked Delta, my hands gesturing to the space of the hotel. How it was so much bigger in the inside than the outside would tell you.

"No" Delta shook her head, a pair of keys being given to us as she pointed towards our room.

"Didn't bother finding out but I can try?"

"If you could do that, that would be nice" I respond to which Delta nods her head, her own pair of keys being placed into the room beside us as it clicked open. Soon after Delta disappeared into the room the door closed behind her.



I kicked my shoes off as my hand worked at pulling the covers off the bed so that I could actually get into it. Behind me Aoif did the same except for the fact that she didn't help with pulling the covers off, instead she opted to watch in amusement while she undressed herself.

Eventually I had gotten the sheets from where they were stuck and folded them so that I could actually get in.

With a flop of my body I was on the sheets, Aoif's body soon followed. Her head was curled into my chest while her hands and body cuddled my own.

Softly my eyes closed, the days of walking catching up to me as I soon fell asleep.



Rays of light broke into my eyes, my blissful sleep disturbed. Next to me I could feel as Aoif woke just as I did.

knock knock

At the door was a knock, most likely Delta coming to grab us for breakfast seeing as she was the only one with any money.

"Aoif" I whispered, my voice had disturbed her attempts to ignore the morning and sleep in.

"Nn… yeah" she groaned, her face grit turning to mine.

"Time to get up" I said, my own body already untangling itself from her grasp.

"A minute" Aoif says to which I nod. I walked to the door and with a click it was opened the opulent hallway filled with half groggy people and servants who ran to do the duties commanded of them. Stood in the doorway was Delta, her form small compared to the mass of people who ran this way and that behind her.

Though just a second after I had opened the door, as I was getting a hold of what the people were doing in the morning I was forced to the side, Delta had pushed her way into the room. Apparently there was something important to be talked about as usually Delta was patient, never had she been so aggressive in her approach. Even if the aggressiveness we were talking about was a slight push.

With another click the door closed in front of me as I was dragged to the kitchen where Delta sat me next to the still groggy Aoif.
