Day [Life]: Incarnation
The Actual Disclosure Happened and the Chaos of Yuma City

The night after that incident, we were already inside the inn room. Before going to bed, Zena cried for a while.

"For Zena. Is it better?"

"Yes..."

He answered with a slightly tired eye. He's like a resigned man.

"Let the past pass. I'm gonna pair incognito magic, then have breakfast."

"..."

He just fell silent while looking at me with a strange look. His eyes began to glaze over again.

"What's wrong? Are your eyes starting to tear up again?"

"..."

He approached me who was standing near the bed and hugged my stomach. In a sitting position, she hugged my stomach.

"What's wrong?"

"..."

Her cheeks began to get wet from her unstoppable tears.

"Huh... I know it's hard, don't give up here, okay?"

I said it while stroking Zena's head. He drowned his face in my stomach, then nodded.

"Well, then I'll cast another incognito spell today."

He took it off slowly and then nodded.

"[Mirage]."

At once his face became different depending on the shadow of the reflector. I pictured a woman with a ponytail ponytail in the back.

"Yosh, then let's have breakfast soon."

He just answered it by nodding.

Maybe he was very surprised by the soldier's words last night. Because he fought him back then to protect himself, so you could say Kurt Broyce's son was wrong. I can only understand the broken feelings he was suffering from.

...****************...

"We both order 2 cups of water and 2 servings of Breate!"

I said it from a seat not far from the owner of the bar that night. Because of its proximity and good food we both decided to go back to eating here like last night.

"Oh! Okay fine! Just a minute!"

While shouting, he entered into a room covered in cloth. There was a woman in the kitchen cooking. It seemed to be the old man of the innkeeper.

I put my head back in my hands like a slacker in the morning. Zena lowered her head and hid her hands under the table. He's really sad, isn't he...?

"Please enjoy."

While giving it to us 2 trays containing our order.

After that, we ate it slowly. Breate is a processed potato food that is given a mixture of beef. Usually only boiled until cooked and then served with vegetables and usually on top will be given Kaner sauce.

Kaner Sauce is a sauce made from the seeds of a flower named Aguila. This flower grows around the lake. The color of this flower is different. Starting from the blue, purple, pink, red, green, and others. The taste of Kaner sauce itself is like peanut sauce, but with a savory sensation that blends with Breate.

"Hey, you hear me? He said tonight there will be an attack from the government, some people will fight him. It's like a civil war, isn't it?"

"I also heard that Broyce began to act to get rid of all who opposed her."

"That's cruel, can't they be a little better, we're sick of hiding all their deeds."

I heard a bit of gossip from some female adventurers. Broyce has acted, has he..? Did they hire mercenaries to be on his side?

Looks like there's gonna be something tonight.

While thinking about it I whispered a little to Zena.

"Night we'll be on our guard."

He heard it expressionlessly. His face had been grim because he did not know the fact that Kurt Broyce's son who was a noble was a sex enthusiast. Some people become victims even children are no exception.

So the kingdom sent spies to monitor what was happening to the city. And I was the one who was unintentionally caught up by this troublesome incident.

We are now in the woods near the eastern wall of the city. It was so humid that many magical beasts were here. Even so Zena was still grim, she still thought about it... He's very hard to forget.

"Hm.."

While muttering an obscure word, I searched for a plant from the quest I chose.

The quest I chose was to look for herbs. The plant is called Red Rose. Commonly made for wound healing potions. This plant is in the form of small flowers and usually grows wild.

Even though Zena was just waiting and sitting on one of the pohins with a grim expression, I kept paying attention to her and kept looking for her. Just looking for 5 ok?

"And this is the last one..."

I pulled it out along with the root, then put it in a pouch. This plant is not thorny, even very fragrant. After collecting everything, the two of us returned to the guild and handed the plant over. At least it's still a long time to be able to rise to rank D like Zena.

We walked down the street. The atmosphere was very quiet even though it was still afternoon. The guards also seemed to have disappeared since we last exited the gate.

"It's weird.."

I said it without hesitation in a whisper. Zena was just listening to him.

...****************...

We arrived in front of the inn where we were staying. The innkeeper seemed to be agitated about something, even the bar beside the inn was closed. I was curious about some of those strange things and decided to ask.

"Excuse me."

He seemed surprised by my greeting.

"Y-Yeah! What was? Is something wrong?"

"Uhm.. I was just curious but...why are you panicking so?"

"No! There aren't... The city is deserted because later tonight there will be a battle between the soldiers who support the bastard nobility and those who do not, while some residents choose to evacuate, the rest will participate in the attack."

There'll be a sea of blood tonight. Is he hiding something?

"Is there any more?"

"No, just a few adventurers coming along, that's all."

"really?"

"Yes." Yeah."

He looked reassuring but I had to remain vigilant, if he was the noble's hired soldier.

After being a little suspicious of the innkeeper, we immediately returned to the room we both rented.

"Truly days.."

Sinking my body into bed. Zena just sat in the chair facing the door.

"Huh...."

I immediately moved closer to Zena who still did not show her smile. As soon as I arrived, I pinched her cheek and pulled her.

"Ahws.... The shwakit! Aw... What do I know lwakukawn..."

While saying obscure words, He groaned in pain.

"Smile. I'll protect you so smile. It's just my selfish request."

"Let's go..."

I let go of my pinch, he immediately patted her on the cheek after I pinched him. His cheeks became red, and his eyes glazed back. Finally she cried while hugging me like a child who was reunited with her parents after a long time.

...****************...

In the evening, I woke up as a result of the people who were gathering while carrying torches. The footsteps rang out with the sound of iron accompanying the sound of the roar. The soldiers stepped in neat rows complete with their armor.

"So this is what the innkeeper was afraid of.."

I said while muttering. Zena looked at the hordes of people who were swarming through the closed windows. He looked worried, because of him, the citizens had to fight against the soldiers and mercenaries belonging to the nobility.

Apparently, this battle took place right in front of the inn we were staying at. The risk is that this inn is destroyed flat or will only be hit by an attack. At least I'll dodge by securing Zena before the magic effects disappear.
