CH.96 Horse Riding

Our ride... is this a ride? I think it is. It is called horse riding. Well our ride was going... I can’t say fine as this is not what I would call comfortable.

I was thinking of having The Trojan Horse move at top speed, but that was stupidly bad. I think I would have killed someone if I kept up that speed. So instead we were moving at a decent trot.

I had Laura calculate the speed we would need to make it to Alewatch in the two hours we had, and set the speed a little above it. It was uncomfortable, but we would make it.

“Brian, can’t we slow down?” Lua asked.

“Not really. We won’t make it in time if we do.” I told her.

“But this thing shakes more than the worst carriage.” She complained.

“Sorry, I don’t have anything that flies and can carry this many people.” I told her.

I don’t have a spaceship after all.

(Actually, you do have Gradius. It is a spaceship.) Laura told me.

(Gradius? When did I get that?)

(After getting Blue-Eyes.) Laura said.

(... I totally didn’t overlook it. I would never do that. I just ... ignored it.) I muttered in my mind.

(I know you didn’t. Of course you were just waiting for the perfect time to use it. Weren’t you?) Laura teased.

(You know I was. And Gradius wouldn’t fit all of us, would it?)

(No it would not. This was a good choice.) Laura confirmed.

The trot was going... well about as fine as you could expect it to go. My passengers used anything they had with them to protect their behinds from the damage, and even had to keep a horse calm. That’s not on me. If you want out, just say it. I’m not going to force you to stay.

When we ran into the on ground search party, we had to stop for a second. I think everyone was relieved by it and some were even asking for healing magic. It’s not that bad. Stop exaggerating.

(It doesn’t feel as bad to you, Master. You have higher than average defense and the Summoner’s protection skill.) Laura reminded me.

... oh yeah. I guess it might be painful then. My bad.

The ground squad was a little jealous about us in our rain cover, but there is no way we would fit three people and three horses in here. We were almost at max capacity already. Two people, or even three, maybe. But with the horses. No way.

“Are you not going to have any?” I asked her. With her curse now gone, she could have some.

“I did try it, but I'm not really a fan.” She told me.

“Understandable. Not everyone likes it.” I said as I took a gulp.

“What were you thinking about at the gate?” She asked.

“... nothing much. It’s something to do with the system mission.” I told her.

“Is something bad happening again?” She asked.

“Thankfully not. It’s all good news this time.” I told her.

“Then we will take this opportunity to unwind. Even for adventurers, peace is the best.” Lua said as she pulled out her blood flask and took a sip.

“Yes it is.” I responded as I pulled open my pack opener.

Mind as well try it immediately.

(There isn’t a monster reborn in the new sets, right?) I confirmed with Laura.

(No. There is Monster Reincarnation, but that won’t work.) Laura told me.

(Why not?) I asked.

(It would move the soul of the dead to a new vessel, not resurrect them in their old one.)

Well, I guess it is called reincarnation. Not resurrection.

No monster reborn for me. Not that I was expecting one at this point. Getting one was lucky enough. Sorry Rico. But I might still make it if I get one tomorrow morning.

With those thoughts, I took another gulp of ale.
