The Goddess Made A Mistake Again

Chapter 24: Chapter 24 - Journey Starts



We were riding the carriage on our way to the town called Valint.

Inside the carriage there were four people, Me, Anna, Samantha and another person who was staring daggers into me.

The supposed person was wearing clothes similar to Anna, so I had a good guess that she was the personal made of Samantha.

She had long black hair and was wearing thin iron framed glasses. She slightly had that look of the strict honor student in your class or the librarian. But I couldn't understand why she was staring like that at me.

What did I to her ass?

Not being able to handle the feeling of her gaze anymore, I look at her, "Hello, my name is Henry. Who might you be?"

Perhaps, she didn't think that I would actually talk to her as her face showed slight surprise but quickly turned ice cold, "My name is Amelia." After saying that she turned her head around and went quiet again.

The situation around the small space became awkward by her doing that. Samantha gave an awkward smile and said, "Don't mind her too much, she is like that."

"Madam!"

"What!" She looked at Amelia, "You're the one who's acting like that."

"I- I'm just…" Then she looked at me again before she did a 'Hmph' and turned around.

"Again, don't think much about her." Samantha then leaned closer to me and spoke softly, "She was raised with strictness but on the inside she is very nice person"

Amelia beside her blushed in embarrassment and turned angry, "Madam!"

"Opps! Shouldn't have said that." Samantha said while laughing sneakily.

I laughed with her too as I felt my relationship with her grow. Samantha was someone easy. When I say easy I don't mean in the way you can get her to your bed, no. I meant that she had a honest mind and if you could just breach past that and make yourself seem like a good enough person, then you're good person for her.

Good Equals Good.

Bad Equals Bad.

But I didn't just act like a good person, for this past two weeks I had been talking with her, making her laugh, discuss some heavy political things with her BUT… all as a friend.

Never did I try to get past that barrier, even if she was easy, I knew I didn't have a chance with her, not now.

So acting as the great friend I was, I passed by her honorable defenses and was a solid friend to her. The kind that you can trust your some secrets or help them out if they ever get into a tight problem.

As both of us talked and laughed around each other, two person had dark looks on their faces. One was obviously Amelia and the other was Anna, who was looking darkly at Amelia who was paying attention to us.

After a while, I asked, "When's the next stop?"

"The closest town next to us will be in five hours and after a brief stop we would be going on going our way again."

"Okay,"

...

16 Hours Later

It has been a looong time before I had ever felt this soar in my body. Sitting inside a carriage for 16 hours straight and having the same three people company didn't feel that good.

I know what you're thinking, how could I have three beautiful girls with me as companions and still say something like this.

You can, when one of them is your ex-fiancé who only had one topic to talk about, one your personal maid who you couldn't get to speak freely and the other another maid who didn't want to acknowledge your existence, let alone speak with you.

So it felt great when night finally came and I could let all my tiredness out… on the freaking grass.

Okay, I exaggerate again. I wasn't sleeping directly on the grass but on something similar to a futon. When compared to the soldiers who are sleeping on some rough cover or directly on the ground, I was in comparison, living like a king.

My own tent, great food, great bed, a personal maid… still it didn't stop me from wanting more. Why wouldn't I? Humans are inherently a greedy fellow… or at least I am.

Walking inside my large beautiful tent that was strung up by the Religias Soldiers, I saw my lodgings and Anna gathering her things.

Hmm… Is she going somewhere?

"Anna"

She looked back and smiled, "Oh, master, You're here. Why don't you get in your bed, I have already prepared everything you might need."

"Alright, but where are you going?"

"I'm taking some clothes and going outside."

"Are you going to sleep outside?" She nodded.

"…Do you even have a bed… or is it just those clothes?" I said pointing to the bundle of clothes in her hands.

"Anhh…" She looked down not knowing how to answer.

I sighed, this girl.

"You know what, let those clothes down and get inside the bed, you're sleeping with me."

"What!" Anna said as all her clothes fell from her hands and she blushed hard, "But master… that would be inappropriate."

"It's either that or you sleeping outside and I'm not letting you do that." I said getting on the bed.

"That is an order."

"But… what if someone sees us?"

"Nobody is going to come and peek inside our tent." Then I looked at her square in the face with a smirk, "If you have problems sleeping with m-"

"I WILL!" She said strongly and blushed again.

'Well that came out strong… hehe, I am getting good feelings about this.'

I try to act as nonchalant as possible, "Alright then, turn the lamp off when you're ready."

"Okay" Anne said and seeing that her master was facing the other side. She went to a corner of the tent and changed into a nightgown. She could have gone outside, but being surrounded by men, changing alone outside at night wasn't a good idea.

Anna looked at the bed that Henry was sleeping in and gulped for a moment before blowing out the lamp and getting in.
