20 One Who Offer Help

"I heard that someone wants to go to Dalgueuil Forest." A shady man with black robes approaches us from behind. It surprises me but it doesn't seem to surprise the knight.

"I hate a person that sneaks from behind, state why are you here." The knight sounds a little angry about the man's action. I guess he really dislikes a person who sneaks behind him.

"You do know why I am here, don't you bronze knight. I come here to help you go to Dalgueuil Forest."

From the conversation, I realized that the bronze knight knew this guy with the black robes. Is this his other friend but why it seems like the bronze knight was not liking this guy.

"I didn't need your help! I would go there myself."

"Don't be shy..." He giggles, "Once you also seek my help don't you, I know you will accept my help as you are a person that will prioritize other safety before your own or your own pride....right?" After saying that, the man vanished with some words that tell us that our carriage was in front of the city gate.

"Who that's the guy? Nah...that doesn't matter let us check whether our carriage is in front of the city gate."

"We will not be checking it." He then walking towards the inn direction. It seems like the bronze knight really doesn't want to accept that guy's help.

"What's wrong? Isn't that your friend... besides we will get there faster by using a carriage."

The knight stops, "You don't know who he is! He would never help someone without any motive on his mind...He is that kind of person and I know it." The knight then continues to walk towards the inn.

I persuaded the knight to accept the help as it is about my owner's safety, if we arrive too late my owner might already die or badly injured. "Didn't you promise Aliss father that you would bring her back!"

"I will!.. but I will do it without his help!" He shouted at me.

"Don't be stubborn! People live might be in danger and you here refusing someone help because you think that he has an ulterior motive." I was getting angry at him and I kept telling him to stop being so stubborn and accept that man's help.

"Ahh! Just remember...this was your choice, just know that I was against it and do not regret what will happen next." The knight then changes his direction and walk towards the city gate.
