“It’s really not going well.”
When Caius heard his words, he nodded in agreement.
"If everything goes well, we should have accomplished a lot of the mission by now. We have only collected two species so far. It will probably take a few more days, but it is worth it for the 2,500 Farrons."
He sighed and continued, perking up again when he talked about money.
Seeing that he was not worried at all about the possible arrival of the bandit gang, Livia could only smile helplessly. He was not in a position to tell him his guess. For them as ordinary people, telling them too much would not only be useless, but would make them worried and afraid, which would have a negative effect.
Natalia raised her head, looked at everyone and began to talk about the arrangements for the sentry.
"Caius and Jeffrey, Anders and Randy (one of the two guards) are in one team, Honasan and Paros, Pierre and Denis (one of the two guards) are in one team, Livia and I and..." She was stunned when she mentioned the old hunter, because she didn't know his name, "Benito."
The old hunter and Honasan spoke at the same time, "We will be in charge of the last shift in the early morning with Benito."
Natalia continued speaking with a normal expression. Although it was a little awkward at that moment, it was nothing to her.
Livia and the others nodded, only Paros seemed a little dissatisfied, "Can we switch shifts? I don't want to be in the same shift with the Knight."
Paros said as he folded his arms and looked at Natalia.
Before Natalia could speak, Honasan turned his head and looked at him, frowning and saying in a deep voice: "What?
Any complaints about me?"
"No, no, I'm just worried that the bloody smell on my body will make you, Sir Knight, uncomfortable."
Hearing this, Paros grinned and spoke. He had always been a little afraid of this older knight. His intuition told him that this seemingly ordinary middle-aged knight in front of him was very strong. And when he was raging before, his beast-like instinct made him feel fear from this middle-aged knight.
If Livia knew what he was thinking, she would know with a little thought that this was because Honasan, as a weak transcendent, could not fully control the emission of his transcendent aura. This was a kind of suppression at the life level. You must know that even a weak transcendent can live to the theoretical limit of human beings, more than a hundred years, under the premise of living a normal life.
For ordinary humans, it would be great if their normal life expectancy could reach 60 under the current living conditions.
Seeing that Paros no longer objected, Honasan snorted heavily, stopped staring at him, and turned his head away.
"If you have nothing else to do, take a rest."
Natalia looked around at everyone and said.
After saying that, she turned around and walked back to her previous seat and sat down.
Everyone found a place to sit down. Honasan and two guards sat down not far from Natalia. The three people naturally gathered together. Paros lay down alone at the southern intersection of the mountain road. The old hunter took out a dark green hunting hat from somewhere, put it on his face, and rested against a tree trunk.
Livia just found a place to sit down at the edge of the flat ground on the hillside, far away from Paros. Although the blood in his body had already coagulated and the smell of blood could not be transmitted too far, there was still a faint smell of blood if he got closer, and he didn't like Paros very much.
As soon as she sat down, she saw Caius coming over and sitting next to her. Livia smiled at him helplessly.
Caius smiled and sat down to look at him.
"What's wrong?"
Livia looked at him as if something was wrong, so she asked.
"that……
That…” Caius’ face turned red, and he seemed to want to say something but was too embarrassed to speak.
Livia frowned and looked at him. For a moment she didn't understand what he wanted to do. Suddenly, she saw out of the corner of her eye that Honasan and the trio were all taking out food, and she understood what he wanted to say.
As an ordinary person, especially after experiencing a battle, he naturally needs to eat to replenish his energy. However, Caius in front of him came here with basically nothing, and he even ate the food of the guards and the trio at noon.
He looked at Caius helplessly, "You really didn't bring any food with you. You only brought some water and sundries."
"Well……
I have spent all my money before..." Caius scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said a little embarrassedly. He did come here with the idea of "getting something for free". The Faron he had on him was basically spent in his previous extravagant spending, so he couldn't even afford to buy dry food.
He had been spending money with the idea of waiting for a mission. If the mission was delayed or cancelled, he would be thrown out of the inn without receiving the hire money and wander the streets. He might become the first knight to starve to death on the streets due to excessive consumption.
Looking at him, Livia shook his head helplessly. This knight was truly the knight who lived the most difficult life he had ever seen. He really deserved to be called a "wandering knight".
Although he felt a little helpless about him, Livia still took off his backpack and took out some food. After all, he took on this task because of Caius, and he owed him a favor. It was just some food, and he couldn't let him starve.
"Thanks. I'll buy it for you."
Caius took the food with a smile and took out a small silver coin from the bag on his waist and handed it to Livia.
Livia glanced at the money he handed over and shook her head to refuse.
"It's just a little food. I won't need it."
Seeing that he really didn't want to accept it, Caius put the money back into his pocket and thanked him again: "Thank you very much."
"In fact, you could have asked the guards outside for some dry food. They brought plenty of food."
Livia said with some doubt.
Caius blushed and said a little embarrassedly, "I...
How can I, a knight, ask some guards for food?
. "
Livia stroked her forehead. She really couldn't let go of her pride. She would suffer if she insisted on saving face.
He had a clear understanding of Caius. Although he had felt that he had some covetousness for his sword when they were in the hotel before, over the past period of time, Livia had come to understand that Caius was a man with some small thoughts but still had the heart of a knight.
Even though I had coveted his sword before, I only thought about it and would not take action. There is a phrase that may not be very appropriate to describe it: I have the desire but not the courage.
Thinking of this, Livia tore the bread roll in his hand and put it into his mouth. He suddenly felt a little hungry.
Half of the food he prepared were bread rolls. For some reason, he suddenly developed a liking for bread rolls. Maybe after comparing it with Kovag's dark cuisine, he psychologically felt that this was a delicacy.
Livia ate the bread roll in her hand, looked up at the sky and thought about something.
