The Evening Primrose
Chapter 5

What will happen to me next? Before that, I should always think calmly or I will get a bad future. In this spacious room like an office, I talked about many things together with the woman who helped me

And it's true, this is another world. If asked if I believe in the other world, then my answer is no. I'd rather believe that I'm now on another planet, it would make more sense than something like another world. I had already explained this to him, and at first he also did not believe that I was from another world.

After I talked about it at length, I was told that this bracelet belonged to one of his friends who had long since left it. So you could say that the distance between time here and the earth is very far.

I have been invited around this house, and outside completely surrounded by a lot of trees towering up to the sky. This is territory that no one touches, so no one lives here but him and the bandits.

This is indeed very surprising, but I have to calm down in this kind of situation. It seems I have to figure out the strength of this bracelet, and the woman said that she knows one person who also wears the same bracelet as me.

I intend to find out what power this bracelet hides. But I still do not know the geographical location of this world. When I was confused to think about it, he ruffled his wooden closet and opened a parchment sheet depicting a map.

"Look, this continent is vast, right? There are other continents besides the one we live in now" he explained.

The forest is so vast, if I want to head to the nearest village from here, then it will take about 3 days on foot. For me, it's something that's easy to remember that every day I walk everywhere.

"As I said, I have an acquaintance who has the same bracelet as yours. If you meet him, maybe you can get the answer." That's what he told me.

"So, where should I go? Aren't I going to meet a beast out there?"

"Of course you'll meet them. But, the one thing you should do if you meet them, is to stay hidden and run away."

It was so scary, I didn't think that a creature like the one in the mythological story would live in this world.

"I'll tell you. The man was a librarian in the city of Nekavoda. You need to head northwest to go there."

If I can guess, it will take about a week to arrive in the city, but I can outsmart it by chopping down with people's horse carriages.

It was the first time I had traveled so far, but there was no way I would go there alone. If I want, I will take Zahra with me to accompany me during the journey.

I scrunched my forehead, thinking do I have to go there to look for answers? If I don't go there, I'll stay like this forever.

"If you travel alone, it will endanger yourself. Therefore, I will go with you."

"Wait... You're going too?"

"of course! I haven't traveled since his departure. Until you show up with that bracelet, I think it's time I continue my journey for the sake of his purpose." Smilingly.

He must have liked it a lot, yeah. I'm very grateful to him because he's been too kind to me all this time. But, my bad feelings resurfaced after recalling what Zahra did to me.

Relax, Eleonora and Zahra are different people!

It's not good for me to be prejudiced against him.

"I'll owe you. What about Zahra?"

"We'll take him too. On condition, he'll have to stay tied up while he's with us."

Too sadistic, this woman is so sadistic. If that's what he wants, then I can only agree to it. Although a little cruel, I still cannot forgive what He did before.

The conversation is over, there is nothing we have to discuss now. As she waited for all her preparations to be completed, Eleonora offered a sword practice. This would be my first experience holding it even if it was just a wooden sword.

Is he really crazy to be able to lift this weight? I became curious as to what his body looks like when wearing underwear, whether his body is muscular or even skinny? This is just a wooden sword, what about a real pedangs?

Since I couldn't lift it, I chose to watch him practice from the seat on the porch. I was amazed by the woman she seemed to be, she practiced like this every day alone in this forest.

If I were like him, it would probably be crazy considering there was no other entertainment than practicing swords every day. For hours He spent training, it was time for dusk and He packed all his things.

"Let me help you."

"Thank you."

After everything was done, he went straight to the bathroom. While he was taking a shower I would prepare food for three people. It's not that I'm a bad person, it's just that I can't let Zahra starve in a place like that.

There was neither rice nor bread, most of them were vegetables that were no different from what I used to consume. Then, I'll make a vegetable salad, even if it won't make us full without rice here.

After everything was done, I washed my hands and then brought the food to Zahra. I opened the door of the room, and saw him glancing at me with sweat all over his body.

"I brought you food, so don't do anything weird to me, or I'll torture you." Then I opened the mouthpiece.

"Please, at least let me go to the toilet."

"What now?"

"of course! I've been holding him back while you're not around! Unhand me!"

Then the whole torch lit up. I saw Eleonora enter the room in her free clothes.

"Why did I let you out of this room? Are you planning to escape from here?"

"Of course not! I know it's my fault, but please, just let me go to the toilet this time!"

Without a second thought, I immediately let go of the rope that tied him. It looks like we're the bad guys here. Eleonora forbade me, but I ignored her because human needs are also very important.

He only sighed and then drove Zahra to the toilet. My feelings were a little uneasy after letting go, but I had to try to hold it in while I was here. After all, he won't be able to escape anywhere considering this isn't the earth we know.

While waiting for the two of them in the dining room, I could only remain silent while tapping the table until it formed a tone. I'm a little bored if there's no cell phone and no computer. So what if modern people moved to medieval times? Very tedious.

Shortly after, the two of them came with Eleonora clasping Zahra's hand. He tried to keep her from escaping from here, but outside it was getting dark so there was no way she could leave without any light.

"I'm not gonna hurt you. So, eat first."

It's better if I'm a little kind to him, because otherwise, maybe our trip will get more trouble. I also don't know Eleonora very well, hoping that she doesn't do anything strange later. Finally the three of us ate together without any resentment towards each other.

"Actually, the two of us will travel far. So, I want to force you to come with us" I said.

"Huh? Why come along?"

"Of course you have to, don't you want to go home?"

He was silent after I said it. I actually lied so he wanted to come along. I'm not sure if we can go back to earth, because I don't know yet what kind of power this bracelet has.
