The woman looked pale when Gewen scolded her. She quickly got to her feet and bowed her head deeply, looking like she was really sorry. The woman quickly said things in Summerian language, which Gewen could only assume was her apology. 

Gewen raised an eyebrow and observed the woman. She looked quite pretty and gentle. Her eyes were teary as she tried to hold back from crying. Thus, making her look so pitiful.

Perhaps she had a lot in her mind, that she didn't pay attention to where she was going. So, she ended up bumping into Gewen.

Ahh.. Gewen always had a soft spot for beautiful girls.. Seeing, she looked sorry and had apologized over and over, he couldn't keep yelling at her. So, Gewen nodded and waved his hand.

"You are forgiven, beautiful," he said leisurely. "You are lucky I'm in a good mood. Just... mind where you are going. Don't keep bumping into people."

The woman's eyes lit up and she bobbed her head, looking grateful. Then, she said something that Gewen assumed was her gratitude before she continued her walk.

Gewen smiled back and waved at her. After she disappeared from view, Gewen pressed his chest and sighed.

Sigh... It's been too long since he slept with any female.

The old him would definitely try to chat up the beauty and take her for a drink, then they would end up in bed together.

However, the new him had to resist the temptation. He couldn't sleep with anyone now. He was on a mission. He couldn't jeopardize everything just because he missed fucking.

Gewen let out a sigh again and after he brushed off his dirty pants, he decided to continue his walk toward Berns restaurant and get his breakfast.

"Tch. Idiot." Suddenly, a woman's voice from behind him moved Gewen from his reverie. The man turned around to see who called him 'idiot' just now.

Gewen found an average-looking woman with brown hair and green eyes, looking at him with a mocking smile. Her arms were folded on her chest, and the way she stood made her look like a thug.

Actually, Kira's appearance was above average, and Emmelyn generously considered her beautiful. However, for Gewen's standard, Kira was just average-looking. That's why he did not particularly appreciate this woman call him an idiot and he immediately showed hostility.

"Are you talking to me?" Gewen pursed his lips. He also crossed his arms on his chest and puffed his chest, to challenge the woman.

"Yes, I am. What an idiot," Kira repeated her words. "That woman robbed your money and called you stupid foreigner over and over - yet, you forgave her just because you are in a good mood? That's the dumbest thing I've heard in my life."

"Huh?" Gewen furrowed his brows in annoyance. "What are you talking about??"

"Check your pocket," Kira said leisurely.

Gewen looked at the woman in front of him to see if she was joking. However, soon, he realized Kira was very serious. So, Gewen quickly patted his clothes and checked the money bag he kept in his coat pocket.

It was gone.

His face instantly went pale when he realized his pocket had a big hole in it as it was sliced open by a pocket knife.

He lost the money pouch!  It contained all his money and now he lost it...

Gewen intentionally took the pouch with all his money with him because he didn't trust the innkeeper and the servants in his accommodation. What if they stole his money when he was out and about? He couldn't take that risk.

Gewen was not used to living a hard life if he had to live without money. So, it was better safe than sorry.. That's why he took all his money with him everywhere.

But now... the money was gone...

"My money..." Gewen muttered. "S-she... bumped into me on purpose.. to steal my money..."

"Bingo!" Kira nodded.

Gewen suddenly felt so angry.

Dammit! He thought the girl was apologizing to him profusely after bumping into him. Apparently, she was openly mocking him and called him a stupid foreigner in her local language after stealing from him??

How outrageous!!

Gewen regretted the fact that he didn't understand Summerian language, that he was tricked that easily just by using the tears on her beautiful face and her fake body language.

"Where did she go? Did you see her???"  Gewen became panicked. He needed the money to eat and pay for his accommodation. "W-why... didn't you tell me earlier???"

"I just did," Kira shrugged. 

"WHEEEENN???" Gewen grabbed her shoulders and shook her. "You didn't tell me until after she was gone! What's the point now?"

"Hey! I'm not your nanny, okay? I am not responsible for you and your money. Idiot!" Kira stepped back and brushed off Gewen's hands from her shoulders. "You can still find her if you rush. I think she went that way—"

She pointed in the direction of the busy market. Before Kira finished her words, Gewen had dashed toward the market, leaving Kira behind, shaking her head.

"Such a handsome man," she muttered. "Too bad he is so dumb. And weak."

After she let out a long sigh, Kira continued her walk toward the Archelaus Library. There were some private rooms for study there. That's where Kira spent a lot of her time nowadays when she was not hanging out with Lysander and his friends.

Today, Kira had an appointment with her teacher who had been teaching her etiquette of the upper class and general knowledge that noblewoman must know. Todays' lesson was on table manners.

Kira liked her study and she hoped by learning how noblewomen spoke and behaved, she could present herself better in front of the noblemen in the next royal ball.

Lysander said the royal family had a tradition to throw a ball to welcome spring, which was only several months from now. There would be many handsome and valiant men from the high nobility who attended the event.

It must be really exciting! So, Kira was really looking forward to the event. It would be her first ball and she couldn't wait to attend.

Gewen ran quickly to find the pickpocket how had stolen his money, but he couldn't see her anywhere.

He scoured the market from end to end and asked anyone, using his limited language skills, if they saw the woman, to no avail.  Nobody saw her, or they might not understand what he was talking about.

Feeling frustrated and hungry, finally, Gewen gave up and decided to just go to Moon Lover brothel to find Edgar's men. It was embarrassing to ask them for money, but Gewen really didn't have any choice.

He was so happy to know the brothel manager understood his language. Unfortunately, Gewen was left with another disappointment. 

"What??? They left two days ago?????!" The man couldn't believe his hearing, so he repeated the brothel manager's words.

The brothel manager nodded. "Yes, they were staying here for weeks and suddenly two days ago they received a letter and they decided to pack up and go."

Gewen felt his heart dropped to the floor. He was so hungry, without money, and those people he was supposed to meet were all gone???

Could he be any more unlucky?
