“Faeyna, will you be okay by yourself?”
“Yes, Master, I have done this kind of thing before. I’m more worried about Master,” Faeyna flushed and then looked at me through her long eyelashes. “You’re always managing to do such dangerous things. It makes my heart ache. You sure know how to leave a girl waiting.”
I didn’t really get what she meant by that. Was she really that worried about my death? She seemed ready to leave my employ before when the Prince gave her a better offer. She had suddenly changed her desires, but I never really understood why. If it was as simple as gratitude for saving her, I’d rather she do what she wanted than be miserable fulfilling some debt she felt she owed in her mind.
Although I liked Faeyna, I felt like there had been a distance between us ever since that act. I had hoped to fill some of that gap on this trip, but pressing matters seemed to be determined to keep us separate. Thus, I traveled with Faeyna. A younger and more inexperienced Blue Mage sent us on to the ocean city of Kingsport. I could smell salt in the air once the teleportation was over. I would love to have had some time to explore the place, but I had to help Lord Tibult first.
After bringing out the cart and making sure everything was set up properly, I hired a guard to watch over her. This was another service of the Traveler’s Guild. She would be alone in this city. Last time, I had just left her alone, but I realized that this was actually pretty careless. The guards the guild offered would watch over the carriage and protect Faeyna if needed. I didn’t have anything against men, but I did end up selecting a female. She wasn’t pretty and had as many scars as some of the men, but that only reassured me that she knew what she was doing.
Once everything with her was settled, I looked out over the ocean. The Traveler’s Guild was strategically placed on a hill facing the ocean so that upon leaving the door, you saw a very scenic beach and dock down below. I really wanted to take all the girls to the beach. Faeyna in a swimsuit on the beach would do the church proud. Ah well, I’d have to put off that religious ceremony for another time.
Opening a portal, I headed back to Nyphal. I hadn’t brought the girls with me on this trip, saving a bit of coin. I should have done that from the get-go, but there was something to be said about travelling with company. Since I wanted the girls with me in Nyphal, it didn’t make sense to blow through portals and dp just to save a few coins. I was past the point where I could argue over coppers.
The sun was only a bit past noon at this point. I could probably say it was around 3 pm, although this world didn’t have clocks.
“Master, what will we be doing until tonight?” Shao asked, a blush betraying her lewd expectations.
I was sorry to disappoint her.
“There is still some time. Let’s check out the Mirror Labyrinth.”
“Faeyna, will you be okay by yourself?”
“Yes, Master, I have done this kind of thing before. I’m more worried about Master,” Faeyna flushed and then looked at me through her long eyelashes. “You’re always managing to do such dangerous things. It makes my heart ache. You sure know how to leave a girl waiting.”
