133 Journey to the wasteland (6)

"I am really sorry about this"

Mars bowed his head in front of the group of demon travelers, to avoid confusion about his race he had grown out his horns, a demon elder was acting as the head of the group stood forwards and looked at Mars' bowed head with a stern look on his face

"you really did give us a scare.... but luckily no one got hurt"

"we, or rather I thought you were bandits for that I am truly sorry"

"....please raise your head"

Mars raised his head and looked straight into the black eyes of the demon elder, this stare off continued for about a minute before the demon elder gave a sigh

"as leader of this group of travelers I forgive you"

Mars gave a smile

"thank you"

then he turned and was about to walk back to the caravan but the elder called out to him

"can I ask you a favor?"

"sure"

"we would like to join your caravan until we reach the capital would this be acceptable?

"this.... I don't know I will have to ask the leader of the caravan"

"okay"
