"Fine... Just let me take the next turn, and I will tell you," Kira replied.
"Okay..."
As the wagons reached in front of the tax post, two royal guards stopped them...
"Stop at once," the guards shouted.
"Hello, Mark... How are the kids?" Kira asked as she hopped down from the wagon.
"My kids are good... Who is this kid? Your new boyfriend?" Mark asked with a smile.
"Nah, he\'s just a customer. I\'m taking him to the Dwarf Kingdom," Mark replied.
"Huh...? Why didn\'t he use the normal transport wagons then?" Mark asked.
"Shhh... Mark, keep it low. He\'s new and doesn\'t know all that. Just shut up..." Kira spoke with a very serious expression and in a low voice.
"Okay... Okay... How much is he paying you?" Mark asked.
"Umm... 50 coppers," Kira lied immediately because she knew that Mark would definitely ask for a commission.
"So, where are my 20 coppers?" Mark asked immediately.
"How about 15?" Kira asked with a smile.
"No... 20 or pay tax," Mark spoke.
"Fine... Here," Kira spoke as she gave 20 coppers to Mark and came back to the wagon.
"Taking money as if he is going to let us go through the Royal Road..." Kira spoke with an irritated expression as she sat down on the driver\'s seat and whipped the leash.
The wagons started moving again but instead of going straight this time... All the wagons turned towards the forests.
"Oi, Kira, be aware... A group of Black Eye bandit-" Before Mark could complete his sentence, the wagons entered inside the forest, and only Anon heard his full sentence.
"Heh..." A smirk appeared over Anon\'s face, but he turned back to his normal expression immediately.
"I don\'t think they heard you, Mark," another guard spoke.
"Who gives a fuck? Here are your 10 coppers... Have fun," Mark spoke as he gave the money to the other guard.
"The snowfall is increasing by the second... I don\'t think they will be able to sneeze make it through," the other guard spoke as he sneezed.
"Don\'t care... I want to go home," Mark spoke.
"I don\'t think anyone will come now since the roads are filled with snow. We should go home."
"Yeah... Let\'s go to a bar and have some beer with roasted fish."
Both of them spoke and left the duty at once.
Inside the forest...
"Snow is increasing..." Kira spoke as she immediately turned back and took out a thick leather coat from inside the wagon.
"You don\'t have your coat, kid?" Kira asked as she noticed that Anon was only wearing a shirt with a black coat over it.
"No... My coat is more than enough," Anon replied with a smile.
"Here... Cover yourself with this. You won\'t feel the cold," Kira spoke as she gave Anon a thick blanket.
"Oh, thank you..." Anon replied with a smile.
"No need, I will take it back once I start to feel the cold," Kira spoke with a serious expression.
"Oh, okay... So, about the mark?" Anon asked with a smile.
"Why are you so interested in my mark? Don\'t you have something else to do?" Kira asked with a serious expression.
"I am in the middle of a forest. Snow is falling down heavily, and the sun is also going down. What do you think I can do in this particular environment?" Anon asked.
"You can recount your money... pretty sure you have too much of it on you," Kira spoke with a neutral expression.
"I can\'t do that," Anon replied with a smile.
"Why?" Kira asked.
"I have too much... If I started counting now, it will take me more than 100 years to count the money, and I will have more until then," Anon replied with a smile.
"You rich ass... What is your business anyway?" Kira asked.
"I supply wood to different kingdoms and create different gadgets. The lamps hanging on these wagons are made by my company," Anon spoke with a smile.
"No doubt why you are so rich..." Kira spoke with a serious expression.
"Now, I answered your question. It\'s your turn to answer my question," Anon spoke with a smile.
"Ugghhhh... Fine, if you want to know it so bad. I will tell you... 3 years back, I had a boyfriend... A young guy who looked just like you.
He made some stupid promises of living and dying together with me and the fuck up is, I believed him because I was fucking stupid. We had a small house at the north corner of the Royal Capital\'s 7th ring.
Everything was going great until one night. I was returning back to our house, and suddenly I saw many people running towards our street.
It was a massive fire caused by a monster outbreak... I ran as fast as I could have and reached there, but our house was already on fire.
I rushed into the house and saw my boyfriend unconsciously lying on the floor. I picked him up and started running outside, but a big wooden pillar that was covered in flames fell from above, and I used my face to block it from falling over my boyfriend.
My face burned like hell, and the pain I felt that day was something else... But, what happened after that hurt even more..." Kira spoke as she stopped talking, and tears started gathering up inside her eyes.
"What happened?" Anon asked with a curious expression.
"When he came to his senses... He looked at me and got scared immediately. He said... I look like a fucking monster, and that he will never talk to me ever again.
He broke everything that was in-between us and left me... Even though I sacrificed my face to save him.
That\'s when I realized that the physical pain was nothing... It was this emotional shit that hurts the most," Kira spoke with an angry expression as she didn\'t let a tear fall down from her eyes.
