Chapter 56: Caravan Part I
I rocked heavily back and forth. Stars shone in the clear night sky.
Winter appeared to be almost upon us, as a moist breeze caressed my fur. I stretched and wagged my tail as I rested on Senri’s lap.
Senri gently stroked my back. Cool breeze or lustrous fur mean nothing special to me. Since vampires barely register any changes in temperature….
“Oh really… little miss is heading to Romberg with your dog?… What is your business there? It’s not the kind of place girls like you should visit… it happens to be the front line.”
“I’m going to join the fight. I may not look it, but I can wield a sword.”
“Ehh… with those skinny arms? Either you’re really confident in your skills or too reckless.”
The one who spoke was a gruff man with a deep scar on his cheek.
His vulgar eyes gave Senri the once over. I stood up on her lap and thumped my tail and growled as menacingly as I could with my high-pitched voice.
The filthy man chuckled at my threat and said, “Quite the reliable knight you’ve got there but that pretty dog of yours would be eaten up in under a week if you take it to Romberg.”
