I knocked on the door to the motel and after a brief moment, Anna opened it. She wasn't wearing her usual maid outfit but one that I bought for her yesterday.
It was a white sundress with a grayish-white band in the middle acting as a belt. Her hair was let loose and her legs had the new blue heels.
It would seem that I was mesmerizing her look a bit as she smiled and asked, "How do I look, master?"
"Just perfect." My words had good impact from the blush that erupted on her cheeks.
Which she quickly covered as she heard the footsteps of Alice coming towards them, "We have completely packed everything. Isn't that right, Alice?"
Alice came behind her and her look was enough to tell me that she had heard much from her, "Yes… it is."
"Alright, let's go then." I pick up the heavy luggage's, the ladies were carrying. Anna tried to take it back but was unsuccessful as we walked down the stairs.
"Master, we have yet to hire someone to take us home." She informed me but I shook my head.
"Don't worry about that, I got someone." I smiled opening the door to them as they saw our new ride.
"… What is that?" Anna said as her gaze widened.
Alice too looked at it and her mouth dropped full. They weren't looking at Raven who was driving the thing but the thing itself.
It was a carriage. But it was… slightly different than the usual. Instead of the usual carriage that had wooden frames with red color, this one was made from steel and had black color. Even more so, it was big… big enough for it to be carried by 7 horses instead of two or four.
"Mas- Master… what is that?" Anna shook, while pointing her finger at the 'abomination'.
"That is our new ride." I said, full of smile. Not the least bit shamed, instead proud of it.
Anna didn't say anything more but her gaze landed on the new wolfman standing by the door and whispered to me, "Who is that?"
"That is our new guard." I said as Raven came forward and introduced himself.
"My name is Raven; I work for sir." A brief one.
Anna gave a bow, "My name is Anna, I'm the master's personal maid. It's nice to meet you."
Raven then looked at Alice, who took a small moment to understand and said, "Hi, I'm Alice. I'm a maid."
"Let's get going." I said entering the steel jail.
The new steel carriage rode on as the people on the streets looked at it and gaped. They murmured and thought if this was a new way to transport the criminals. Unknown to the fact that this would become the new style of the Tax family.
Raven rode steadily through the streets. This was his first time driving a carriage. Especially one that was so unique and had so many horses. So he made sure to drive and turn extremely gently.
He thought multiple times why Henry would do such a thing. Already knowing he doesn't know how to drive and yet, he was currently driving a dangerous vehicle in a street full of people. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel~fire~net
While the person he was thinking about was enjoying the company of two beautiful women.
I was relaxing inside the steel carriage as Anna and Alice looked everything in wonder. To them it was simply wonderful.
The outside may look as deprecate and desolate as a burned down village but inside it was a complete change.
Inside the walls even though made of steel but was covered with red pillowed leather for comfort and luxury. The seats were made of cotton and had the same red outlook as the walls.
Besides that, there was a small desk and dining table for conversation. Even then the carriage was so big that there was a separate room at the back side which had a small bed or could be used for changing clothes.
This was why both the girls were marveling at this strange wonder that had never been seen before.
I smiled seeing them still gazing around in wonder and asked, "Do the both of want some candy?"
They turned to see me open the first level of the desk that was embedded in the carriage and saw it filled with various candy.
Anna was going to deny but seeing Alice behaving like a child, she too nodded and took one.
"So how do you like the new carriage?"
"It's amazing, master." Alice said.
"Yes, I was about to say the same thing," Anna said, "But where did you get such a vehicle?"
"This baby was a present from the viscount to me." I said and saw Alice getting confused.
"Oh, you don't know about the party, do you?" She shook her head. "Well you see, the viscount of this city had a birthday party the other day which I attended. Unfortunately, some idiots decided to cause trouble and me being me, I helped them." I said, cutting off much much content.
"So the viscount wanted to gift me something and I asked for this."
Hearing me Alice smiled, "That is a very valiant thing to do, master."
"Oh, you don't even know the half of what master really did." Anna said gathering her attention.
"There's more to the story?" Alice asked as I shook my head at Anna but she ignored me.
As she recounted her story in a very long way… we were already out of Valint and on the road.
She told her everything… I mean everything. Every last gory detail about the party that I didn't even tell her, but she said it in a way that made me the hero instead of the villain as many in the party secretly thought.
"WOW! That's amazing master! You're so strong to defeat so many dangerous people!" Alice's eyes showed a starry look as I only smiled.
Anna was like a great wingman, who would clear the hard road for me to get inside a girls pants.
Raven who could hear everything from his hyper hearing, didn't comment at all and rode on… keeping his thoughts to himself. Then looking around at the map beside him, he stopped the carriage and knocked on it.
I get out of the carriage and look at the small town in front of me with slight mischief.
"So this is where you've been hiding huh, Jacob."
