After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 419

[51 Days after The Migration]

At this time, a group of guards with about 20 members was heading to the nearby town of Ferrol as per their mission.

Ryo swung his water whip against three monsters, tiring them before he released his weapon to finish it off. Similarly, the non-aggressive water wielder Turbo, assisted the others by suffocating monsters with his skills, before using his own weapon for damage-dealing.

Jake thanked him and stabbed the monsters in their weak spots, dealing with multiple low-level monsters with ease.

After clearing up their area, the men heaved a deep breath, before turning in the direction of a certain aborigine castaway, who was stabbing monsters to her heart’s content.

Stab! Stab! Stab!

The cringed.

"Are you sure you’re coming with us? Alone??" Jake asked, though slowly stepping away from this side even if there were a few more monsters there. "We’re only an hour away, perhaps—"

Without answering, Cassandra swung another sword, beheading the level 5 monsters right in front of her.

He cringed again.

The woman was definitely venting. She wasn’t even gaining any experience or copper from these monsters anymore.

Anyway, neither Jake nor Turbo could talk further as more and more monsters approached them. They continued to clear out the monsters except for the weaker ones who were given to the guards and civilians they were with.

At this time the Terran Mercenary Team B—consisting of Turbo, Jake, Brandon, Ryo, Loki, and Reuben—was heading to Ferrol with about ten guards including the uncle-nephew duo Helios and Hugo, and about a dozen well-chosen civilians.

By well-chosen, it naturally meant those who could somewhat defend themselves and would be able to interact well with the aborigines from Towns.

One of them was Bull, who was one of the leading businessmen in Altera. He owned one of the water transportation companies and made money with tours as well as transportation of items from each end of the river chord within Altera grounds.

At this time, he was also garnering a lot of experience with this mob and he was about to level up—they hadn’t even reached Ferrol yet! He was so very happy. His Lulu would be so proud of him!

Anyway, during the fighting, one or two of the Terran Mercenary Team had more or less tried to convince Cassandra to go back.

They happened to have seen the depressed state of boss Gill last night. They ought to help him out, right?

This was mostly due to the goodness of their hearts and loyalty to their friend. It has nothing to do with Gill being so annoying at all!

(Jake couldn’t help but remember the previous night when everyone was called for a little after-party in the villa, Gill pretty much insulted quite a few people—that jerk called his hair Gugu bird coop!)

"We’re still a few hours away—" Jake added, insisting, but was cut off by Cassandra stabbing a monster with a lot more strength than necessary. She stabbed it again for good measure before turning her head in his direction.

"Do you think I’m an idiot?" she asked, the light of her Class C sword particularly sharp.

The men cringed.

"...no, of course not Miss Cassandra." Jake mumbled as he blocked an attack with his earth spike, "It’s just that boss Gill didn’t sleep at all last night…"

"Liar!" The violet-haired woman clicked her tongue before turning her head back to the monsters.

As they fought though, Cassandra’s mind couldn’t help but float a bit, the words echoing in her mind as she slashed.

"Then why do you think he—nevermind. I should know better by now—" She stopped herself and just focused on the fight at hand, her sword swung to another monster that unfortunately came her way.

She even turned the creepy things into eunuchs, before ending their suffering.

Everyone cringed for their lives.

After venting, she heaved a sigh, partially calming down, "Rather than me, Brandon should go back."

The blonde flinched. "Huh? Me?"

Cassandra gave him a look. She had planned to go early that morning but, by coincidence, she found out that the men would be going to Ferrol. She asked her guards to accompany Veronica, while she joined the Terran’s party.

She didn’t want her own guards anyway, she felt freer without them.

Anyway, when she saw everyone heading to Ferrol she was startled. Imagine her surprise when she saw Brandon among them!

If Veronica found out her Brandon disappeared again, she’d be so depressed!

"Veronica!"

"What about her?"

Cassandra looked at the clueless prat and she wanted to groan in depression!

Stupid Men!!

…

The group moved on and continued to travel towards Ferrol, encountering more monster mobs along the way. Naturally, the closer they got to the town, the stronger the surrounding monsters were as well.

As they traveled, Cassandra showed off that she wasn’t just the demure (and an avid Gill admirer) that they thought she was.

Before, it was only her beauty and status that attracted men, now it was the skills she worked hard for! It felt so much better receiving them! _{freeweɓnøvel.com}
