Chapter 293 Talking First is Always NiceChapter 293 Talking First is Always Nice
The place they were in was pretty silent and devoid of life. Damian was not expecting any danger to occur during the night time, so when he heard someone had entered his tent, he was expecting it to be sof his companions.
But then, the cold hint of a blade was on his throat, and a female voice whispered, "Don't scream, or you will die."
Damian first examined the person who was threatening him, and cto the conclusion that said person did not have a chance against him. He was much more powerful.
"Who are you? What do you want?" Damian whispered back, acting as if he was scared of dying.
The mysterious woman said, "I need your carriage. Can you give it to me?"
If it was something else that she was asking, then maybe Damian would try to help, but the carriage was impossible for him. They needed it to reach their destination with comfort, especially considering how far the destination was.
He shook his head, "I cannot give you that. Why do you need the carriage for? Maybe I can just bring you along on it?"
The lady didn't answer immediately. She pondered before saying a word. "I am not a criminal like you think. My sister is ill and I need to help her, but don't have the resources to do so. We are in the middle of nowhere as you can probably tell..."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDamian was happy that he didn't attack the woman thinking she was just a thief trying to get his stuff.
'It's nice to talk to people before killing them, sometimes,' He realized.
He then looked at her and said, "We are going to meet a wizard in the middle of nowhere, pretty far from here. Do you think she needs the help of a mage or normal doctors can help her?"
"Really?" the lady gaped, "This condition of hers is something the doctors could never help her at all. I think my only chance is with a mage!"
Everything was just too aligned. Damian was not the type of person to believe blindly in someone, so he used his Telekinesis while talking to the lady, trying to get more information through her thoughts, and maybe learn the truth.
She was telling the truth. Well, at least that was what Damian realized after reading her thoughts.
'She is either a pretty good liar with a way of countering my ability, or this is just the truth.'
Despite not fully trusting the woman, he decided to help her, but first, the two left the camp in the middle of the night, and went to where her sister was.
"I am Cassia, and my sister is Nessia. She's nice, I know you will like her," Cassia said as the two walked through the forest.
Damian was analyzing her every movement. Cassia had been capable of sneaking into their camp without alerting him, which meant she had the skills. He was sure he would win against her in any type of fight, but there was no denying that her stealthy skills were above-average.
"Where's your parents?" Damian asked.
"They are dead," Cassia said, looking a bit down, "We are currently travelers, and I am doing my best to find the solution to my sister's problem. When we were living in our homes, we had the best medicine and doctors available so she was not as bad as she is right now."
The way Cassia talked felt like the truth, and the more she shared about her story, the more convinced Damian was. But still, there was still caution by his parts.
"I see. But what does she have?" he asked.
"It's something related to her magic. She cannot control her mana anymore, and sometimes she just uses her magic randomly. The good thing is that she lost a lot of her power, so the magic she uses doesn't hurt anyone," Cassia stopped for a moment, "most of the times, at least."
A problem related to her usage of mana. Mana was something Damian was interested about, as it sounded like it was different than the ability the humans had on Earth, but also similar at the stime!
The abilities humans had on Earth cfrom the serum, which cfrom the beasts, which were magical beasts from the dungeons. Everything was connected, and most humans were realizing — now that they were stuck inside the dungeon — that they could do way more things, not just using a specific ability.
They kept walking through the forest. The cold night breeze hit their faces, and the occasional sound of night birds woke Damian up from his internal thoughts. He lost track of tand didn't know for how long they walked, but eventually, he spotted a campfire and two sleeping bags. Both were empty, and Cassia's sister was in front of the campfire, heating her hands.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe spotted her sister fairly quickly, but she also saw Damian with her, and looked puzzled, "Who is he?"
Nessia was just scared that someone had taken her sister. It looked like it.
"Sister, relax," Cassia said with a smile, "He is trying to help us."
After hearing her sister, Nessia relaxed, as she fully trusted Cassia.
As for Damian, he was analyzing the two sister, and their difference was visible. They did not look similar in the slightest!
Sure, there was a chance they were blood-related sisters who didn't have a single feature alike, but they were so different in both appearance and power that Damian was sure they were not blood-related sister!
Cassia not only looked way different, but she was also prone to use stealth abilities, andshe probably had saffinity to shadows or silence or things related to stealth abilities. But her sister, apparently, did not have anything related to that, and siblings often did have similar abilities.
Nessia's hair was also silver, while Cassia's was black. They were too different from each other.
Damian said nothing about that and simply agreed to Cassia, "I am here to help you, or at least try to help you. I am heading to a mage in a distant place, and your sister said you are also looking for a capable mage, so I don't see a reason to deny a helping hand."
Nessia could not hold her happiness. She started crying.
