Lord Evolution: Starting With SS-rank Skills

Chapter 30: Emotions and monsters (X)



As the stranger highlighted from the carriage, the women felt a strong sense of fear as they looked at him. It was nighttime, and the moonlight was very dim, so they couldn't see his face clearly.

After he came down, he looked around the forest and, astonishingly, found the exact spot where all of them were hiding, as though he could see them clearly even though the thick trees were obviously blocking his sight.

"How?" The six of them all had the same question in their minds at this moment.

They were out of his sight, yet he still spotted them precisely. How was that even possible?

As for the young man, he observed their location once more before speaking, "Five beautiful women hiding in the woods at night? That's not good. What are you all hiding from? Feel free to tell me, and I'll help you."

His voice and accent were foreign, but he had a friendly tone as he spoke.

Elara and the other women were shocked. His accent and the fact that he found them, even though it seemed impossible, were truly frightening. What did this person want from them?

Elara was stuck in a tight position; keeping quiet in this situation was not a good idea since the man had already found them.

"Who are you? How did you find us?" she asked.

The young man's eyes darted immediately to the spot where she was hiding, and a smile crept onto his lips. "My name's D'andre. No need to worry about how I found you all. While we're chatting, why don't you step out of your hiding spot? It's not really safe."

Hearing his response made the women question his identity even more.

However, at this moment, they had no choice. They could already tell just from his unrealistic, precise sight that he was not ordinary.

Elara was the first to step out. She walked toward D'andre, her eyes fixed on him, revealing her uncertainty. The other women followed her, revealing themselves completely to D'andre, who observed them with a calm smile on his face.

The women left a lot of distance between themselves and him, but he wasn't worried about that.

D'andre proceeded to ask them a few questions: their names, where they were coming from, where they were heading, and why they were hiding.

Elara answered the questions as brilliantly as she could, keeping out all the details that could hurt them.

Hearing her response, D'andre realized that they were in a pretty harsh situation.

"No need to worry anymore, I'll take you all back to your village. My carriage has enough room for all six of you. You can have a proper rest while you're in there," he replied with a smile.

"You want to help us? Why?" Elara asked with a frown.

"No reason at all, just being a gentleman who wouldn't leave lovely women like yourselves alone in this lonely and dangerous forest," D'andre answered.

The women looked among themselves; based on what they had heard from this stranger and the aura he gave off, he seemed really friendly and kind. However, they would not let their guard down just because of that.

'Men would do anything to get in a woman's underwear'—this thought kept ringing in their ears, making them even more cautious.

"I understand, it's tough for you all to trust coming with me, feeling like your privacy's at risk. So, I'll ride up top on the carriage. Unfortunately, my carriage doesn't have a coach box, as I've never really needed one. I could use one at a time like this," D'andre replied.

After hearing his words, the women doubted in their hearts, but they knew they had no choice in this matter as this man did not look or feel ordinary to them. To be able to precisely spot them in the dark was extraordinary; they wondered who he really was.

After further thoughts, they finally agreed to go with him.

When they gave him their response, D'andre smiled happily, like he had just won a jackpot.

Then he waved his hand gently in a noble manner and led them to the carriage.

The women exchanged looks before walking towards the carriage, while D'andre stood behind.

Magically, before they got to the door, it opened by itself, shocking them.

"Don't worry about that. You'll be even more amazed when you step inside," D'andre boasted.

The women swallowed nervously before stepping into the carriage one after another.

Just as D'andre said, they were astonished by the view inside the carriage.

From the outside, it looked only like a wooden container with no sort of decoration, but the inside was the total opposite.

It was a very big room, with more than six large beds placed in it, and there was still more than enough space to fit three more beds. There was also a very large cupboard at the far end of the room made of fine wood.

On the walls, there were glowing crystals that provided a soft glow, giving it a very luxurious appearance.

"This is amazing!"

"The rooms in Glenwood can't compare to this one in terms of beauty!"

"It looks like something out of a fairytale!"

The women reacted excitedly as they sprinted towards the beautiful beds.

Elara watched with a serious expression, which relaxed after a few seconds. 'This is amazing!' she thought before strolling toward her bed with a neutral smile on her face. She was sad Liara wasn't here to enjoy this view.

'What might she be going through in Glenwood right now? I hope those bastards didn't lay their hands on her!' she thought.

D'andre observed the women's reactions from the door with a proud smile on his face. "I told you all you'd be even more surprised, didn't I? Hehe, anyway, if you're a bit hungry or thirsty, feel free to help yourself from the cupboard. There's some fresh food in there, plus a bit of wine and water if that's what you fancy."

He spoke to them for a few seconds before shutting the door and climbing onto the roof of the carriage.

"Open Inventory," he muttered.

Following his words, a large system interface appeared midair, displaying many items in different spots. If Rowan were here, he would be very envious.

D'andre took out a can of beer similar to the ones on Earth and closed the inventory. He then muttered a few strange words, and the horses began speeding through the narrow road down to Winterseed village.

"Time to reel in a new customer," he said with a smile on his face as he took a big gulp.
