EX-SOLDIER: In Another World
Peaceful City before Storm - Part 2

Before sunrise, Vincent had woken up from his sleep. Things that had become a habit when he was still a soldier and it was rooted until now.

The clothes he was wearing were as good as new as if they did not receive any damage, thanks to the repair system that was in the game and still worked though in another world. His weapon was nowhere to be seen as he had returned all of the weapons he had put out back to his inventory, just in case no mischievous hands took it when he was off guard.

Vincent is getting ready to start his day. Before you start, preparation is necessary. Although many guards were on guard around the city, Vincent was unwilling to take the risk. His eyes were glued to the hologram screen in front of him, thinking what weapon he would be wearing until his eyes were fixed on a revolver and took out from his inventory.

A S&W 500 Magnum Revolver, with a shorter barrel of 2.75 in. Capacity of 5 bullets but with much greater strength with a size of cartridge .500 different from others who use .44 or in the case of Colt Python which has a cartridge .357 Magnum.

A knife did not forget he took just in case as well and Vincent chose Karambit. A knife designed specifically for fighting and generally considered the best knife for self-defense with a minus, this knife has almost no useful value for everyday cutting tools.

Preparations were ready and Vincent stepped towards the door. Before she reached the exit of her room, a knock was heard at the door and as she opened the door, there stood Lisa who was smiling towards her.

"Good morning, Vinne!"

Lisa said cheerfully, her smile was contagious and Vincent was smiling.

"Good morning to you too, Lisa. But, Vinne? I thought I was your big baby."

"Didn't you like it?"

"No. I like you better."

Vincent said with a smile, last night's banter made Vincent feel comfortable around Lisa thanks to the time they spent. But on the other hand, Lisa answered with a punch in the stomach that made Vincent grimace.

"really? Tempted me this early?"

"Forget over. More importantly, I'm hungry. Has the owner prepared breakfast?"

"Sure, that's why I came here. I half wished you were still asleep and I'd give you a good morning kiss to wake you up."

Lisa said sultryly and Vincent raised one of his eyebrows in astonishment.

'We've only met for a few days and he's become more aggressive after our chat last night. Seriously?'

Vincent thought with wonder. But he dismissed that thought because there was something more important, breakfast. Vincent decides to ignore Lisa's temptation and steps out just for her arm in the sambar and Lisa holds her hand like a lover she hugs close between her two breasts. Vincent could only sigh with this behavior. If he wanted Vincent could take Lisa to his room last night and 'have fun', but that wasn't the goal. Lisa is a stranger she only met a few days ago for Vincent and is nothing more than an acquaintance. But if Vincent was a pervert, he wouldn't think much and jump right into his pants.

The two of them walked up the stairs to get down to the first floor, where there was a tavern that provided food and even alcohol for visitors even though they did not book a room. In the morning the tavern area looks quieter with only a few people enjoying their breakfast. Unlike the night he entered, the tavern was filled with people enjoying dinner or just getting drunk.

Vincent sat at the counter table, followed by Lisa sitting next to him. The two of them enjoyed breakfast and occasionally started small talk with Lisa or Vincent who asked the innkeeper.

"Where are Pete and Gill?"

Ask Vincent who had finished his breakfast.

"Oh, they're not awake yet. I'm surprised you woke up this early with what we've been through the last few days. By the way Pete slept like a pig, he didn't even take off his broken armor and went straight to sleep when he got here. As for Gill, she was just lazy and since there were no ferocious beasts or monsters threatening her, she would practically sleep the day after yesterday's experience."

Vincent just nodded, then he looked out. It's a little crowded for the morning and it's weird, or it's just normal because he's new here.

"Hey Owner! Is the morning always this busy?"

Vincent asked who used his thumb to point out the door.

"Not really, only a few groups of soldiers have returned. Not all, just those who were seriously injured from the battlefield and had been brought here and they came early in the morning."

"I understand."

Ask Lisa who is enjoying her tea. He asked as he leaned on the new Vincent in a seductive manner.

"I'd say, I'd ask you out if I knew this place. But since I'm not, will you be my guide to see the city, Oooh Great Witch."

Vincent asked Lisa with a grin on his face. Just for Vincent to get another punch on his shoulder with a joke he throws and make Lisa pout, that's funny actually.

"Well young love."

Sela Owner's. The bald old man smirked towards Vincent.

"Technically I'm older than him." Vincent said while pointing at Lisa by poking her nose gently just to make Lisa frown. "Do I look young? If this girl I can understand but I'm not in that category."

"really? You're like you've just turned 20 or 25 to me."

"Trust me Owner, I'm older than you think."

Vincent looks like a 25-year-old man, but that's because he's in the body of his avatar. She's older than that with her just celebrating her 37th birthday a month ago.

"By the way some group of soldiers? but I see it seems like more than that."

"That's because this year the kingdom has 100,000 men as its soldiers, most of the peasants who have no fighting skills and this is the result."

Hearing that Vincent frowned.

"This year? You mean the kingdom has been at war for a long time?"

"You're definitely not from around here if you don't know."

"I am a traveler from the far east."

"That explains why you don't know. And yes, the kingdom has been at war for the past ten years with the empire, call it the annual war. The empire is famous for its power and power, yet I don't know what its purpose with the empire is with this."

"Politics."

"It's more or less like that, but we just ordinary people sometimes don't understand what our leaders want, do we?"

"Yes, I understand what you mean."

Decided to change the topic, because war was not the thing Lisa was interested in. He elbowed Vincent several times eagerly to get his attention.

"Hey! Oi! The vinne! Can I try your gun? You know as a witch I want to know how your weapons work because they're like magic to me."

"Unless my weapon doesn't use magic."

"But it looks like magic to me!"

"Whatever."

"Then come on!"

Lisa said excitedly as she dragged Vincent out of the inn. One must be wondering how a girl drags a man taller than her body so easily.
