Chapter 10: Episode 9 – Encounter

After three days of travel, we arrived in the Eastwood fiefdom.

Something amazing about this world is the use of mana on animals and on tamed monsters. What does this mean? Monsters and animals are much stronger and faster.

So why was so much time spent? Well, nobles have an obligation to spend money where they pass, the paths from one border to another pass through several territories of other nobles, but what delayed most were the attacks on the bandits' hideouts.

"Everything okay?" - Marcio

"I'm fine now, thank you" - Max

Despite sharing the body and memories, it doesn't mean that we feel the same way.

For Max, the fact of life and death is common, however being the person who took the life is something that weighed a bit, the feeling of feeling cutting the flesh and the organs have not gone away yet, but that is just another of the things those who live in this world have to overcome.

As for Márcio, he was a student in the health area, because of this, people he cared for have already died, and he also saved the lives of both good people and once of a criminal. For Márcio, after having died, the fear of killing is less than the fear of dying.

This does not mean that Max is not able to overcome this, nor that Marcio was not affected by this.

"Son, the Eastwoods have a son older than you and a daughter at your age, because of that I will give you your first mission as a noble" - Rose

"Which one, Mom?" - Max

"To buy a present for both of them."- Rose

"What do I have to buy?" - Max

"Whatever you think you should buy, as this serves as a lesson, we'll just give you an amount of money and you'll have to manage" - Ricardo

I am now walking down the street looking for a gift to buy, nothing has caught my attention.

While looking at the products, I accidentally bump into someone.

"Sorry" - Max

"I wasn't looking at the path either, I'm sorry"

Something in me was making me be drawn to her, like I couldn't leave without talking to her.

"Sorry my name is Max, what's yours?" - Max

"My name is Alice" - Alice

"Could you help me? I need to buy two gifts, but I can't find anything that I think is right, could you give me some tips?" - Max

"Are these gifts for a woman or a man?" - Alice

"For both, I'm making a visit for the first time for them" - Max

"Hmmm, thinking like if it was my brother he would want something exotic, you look like a nobleman by the clothes, maybe that could use as a reference, already for a woman, maybe an accessory, nothing that exudes an aura of flashy, but rather that looks elegant and well crafted, if it was for me, I would want to get food" - Alice

"Thank you, I will take your advice into consideration" - Max

"Before I go I'll catch you up on where you can find these things, I think I still have a little time left" - Alice

I decide to buy an exotic weapon, it looks like a dagger used for rituals in a neighboring kingdom.

While I was choosing, I saw that Alice looked for a while at a necklace that was being sold nearby.

A simple necklace, however, it has a drawing of two birds next to each other.

While she was not looking I decided to buy the necklace by stealth.

"I have to go, one day we can meet again Max" - Alice

"Wait a minute" - Max

When I handed the necklace to her, she was a little surprised and then smiled at me.

"Thanks, I'll take good care of it" - Alice

And she left, for a while I stood admiring as she left.

She looked my age, had silver hair, blue eyes, a slim and tall body, something about her exudes elegance, but at the same time exudes a sense of freedom, and if it weren't for her appearance she could pass for a boy.

Her smile doesn't leave my mind.

(Look at that, looks like we have someone who fell in love at first sight) - Marcio

(Now you decide to show up, and not exactly like this) - Max

(Sorry, sorry, her name and aura reminded me about "Alice") - Marcio

(Hey, tell me, you still like her, right?) - Max

(I won't deny it, but that's ok, I won't stop you from liking someone) - Marcio

(Idiot) - Max

The other present I couldn't find resonated with me, so I decided to buy some cookies and a cake that were being sold in a famous local store.

As I finished buying the presents I went to meet with my parents. It wasn't hard to find them, after all, they were watching me a little far away that I was.

"Very well" - Ricardo

"Not choices, but that necklace was perfect" - Rose

"Momeee, were you watching?" - Max

"I was a little curious about what you were going to do, so I decided to take a peek" - Rose

"You're the one who told me not to let him out of my sight" - Ricardo

My father seemed to want to say something, but my mother elbowed him.

"Shall we go?" - Rose

We headed toward the mansion to meet with the Eastwoods.

After the guards confirmed our identities and purposes, we were cleared to enter.

"It is a pleasure to welcome you, my name is Erick Eastwood, my wife Angela Eastwood, my son Fernando Eastwood and lastly, my daughter Milena Eastwood" - Erick

At the door is the complete Eastwood family, the two Margraves, a boy around 17 and a well-groomed girl with silver hair that glinted in the sun and on her neck a cord with two birds side by side.
