BXBX NOVEL Chapter 178 - Restricted
"Divide these items in half and store some in the other carriages," Vesta commanded, pointing at several soldiers.
After all, those two horse-drawn carriages belonged to him, even if someone else occupied them for a while.
"Yes. Sir! " on the other hand, when the captain heard this, he grinned as he recalled the proud expressions of the servant and young master pair.
With that, the captain ordered several soldiers to come with him carrying the goods while heading towards Desmond\'s carriage.
Seeing the behavior of his subordinates, Vesta did not reprimand them but instead turned his attention to the soldiers who were treating their wounds.
I didn\'t think that bandits were this tough, thought Vesta.
It was true that he was slightly disappointed with the ability of his subordinates, who lost only against a bandit. But it was only natural when he found a wizard in the bandit group.
A bunch of swordsmen versus wizards in medium-range combat, it obvious who will win. As he pondered, he continued to stroll and observe the situation of this village.
But a wild wizard wasn\'t the main problem, Vesta thought.
He then saw a wooden bench that was covered with some leaves while the tree behind blocked the sunray from entering.
Vesta then cleared the remaining leaves and sat there with one leg on top, overlapping the other while his back leaning againts the wooden bench.
Not only the Wizard, but these bandits also seemed to be \'fully-equipped. They even had some spare weapons, which made Vesta suspicious.
This isn\'t normal bandits, Vesta thought while glancing at the expressions of the other villagers.
Never he heard a wizard/witch wouldn\'t mind joining a bandit group; even though they lacked money, they can still become a freelancer in mercenary nor assistant to assist the other wizard/witch in their experiment.
Apart from that problem, Vesta then glanced at the boy and mother couple resting and chatting happily with the mercenaries; he then sighed.
Looks like this is a bit troublesome, Vesta thought.
Not that he did mind bringing additional guests, but after seeing the previous situation and hearing their destination first hand. This was indeed troublesome.
Not everyone wants to help others while they also in trouble themselves, not to mention that he is now with his daughter, which makes him even more worried.
But at that moment, his eyes caught something interesting. He narrowed his eyes when he saw his subordinate arrived at the front of Desmond\'s carriage.

....
The arrival of the captain and several royal soldiers also attracted the attention of the mercenaries sitting below.
Not only did they not became tense like before instead, but they also discovered that this captain had a talent for being an entertainer. Therefore, seeing that the captain seemed like he wanted to cause trouble, the mercenaries watched him excitedly.
After all, almost everyone knew that the pair of young masters and servants had a quarrel before with the captain of Vesta\'s royal troops.
Not only did they reject the captain\'s good intentions, they even turned down the offer to accommodate a mother and child who could be said to be cruel as well.
This made almost all the mercenaries neither sympathy nor pity for the young master and servant except for one mercenary.
At the end of the road, a young woman looked worriedly at this group of royal troops. This also applies to the women around.
"Big sis, should we help him?" Raina approached, grabbed the hem of her shirt while biting her lower lip, stared at the royal soldiers in annoyance.
On the other hand, Veronica shook her head and put back the little drum, "No, even though we all heard the story from Miss Alice, it does not mean they are familiar with us."
Veronica paused for a moment, remembering the escorting mission three years ago. She smiled wryly and looked at her best friend. "Besides, Miss Alice didn\'t say to help him, didn\'t she?"
"I know, but ..." Raina muttered even though her friend said that, but her face said different things.
"Alright, we\'ll help them if the situation gets worse, ok?" While holding Raina\'s cheek, Veronica smiled slyly and...
"Ah!" Raina jumped back and looked at her angrily, holding both of her chests after feeling her best friend pinched her nipples.
Seeing this, Veronica chuckled before glancing again at Desmond\'s carriage.

"Young master...." Inside the horse-drawn carriage, Laura stared at her young master worriedly as she stood at the door.
"I know. Put the things in the back carriage," Desmond replied as usual.
Desmond added, "And also if they cause trouble, handle it gently unlike before without revealing your powers. We can\'t be reckless while the Guardian is still watching our movements." He looked at the transparent map on the side and found Vesta\'s location, which was not far from his carriage.
"Yes, young master," Laura answered and then opened the horse carriage door.
Just imagine how shocked the kingdom would be if they found out that all the maids in his house had fighting skills and could chant spells, in other words, full of Swordsmen and Witches.
A few minutes later, nothing happens. And surprisingly, after Laura accepted their request and guided them politely, the captain no longer looking for trouble.
Looks like I worried too much, though Desmond with a sigh of relief. Maybe because his belief in other humans made him like this.
Moreover, Desmond felt that this time he was in the same position as when his parents stayed at the house for a long time.
Not only did he have to follow a few rules, but he also couldn\'t even get rid of some very annoying people.
Just imagine, the investigations carried out for years were still active until now, which annoyed Desmond and wanted to kill the investigators outright.
He hopes to be free with this journey, but the reality is more painful than what he imagines. With the Guardian around, he felt like a pair of eyes were watching him from the darkness.
" *sigh* Laura, I need some dessert." Desmond glanced at Laura, who was always staring at him as if she was afraid of losing him.
"Yes, young master," Laura responded with enthusiasm and went straight to the kitchen.
Day by day, Laura\'s behavior slighly changed like a dog who obeys her master. Well, this is a good thing; unlike before, Laura sometimes disobeys his orders while causing trouble everywhere.
He looked back at the blue sky that was shining brightly while covering his eyes from the sunray."The day is still long; should I go out to get some fresh air?" Desmond thought.
