Chapter 44

The preparations were ready and most of the people had already arrived.

The plaza was beautifully decorated with ornaments and lights everywhere, and large tables were crowded with food with guests sitting on either side staring at the food like hungry wolves.

All the acquaintances of him were here, all the people with whom Allan had known during this year had come to celebrate Allan's farewell. When seeing this Allan could not help but feel somewhat excited.

When they saw Allan, they all started cheering. Although it gave Allan the impression that they were cheering because the banquet was about to begin more than he was here.

Once Allan arrived, Tom, who was also sitting, got up, went to the place where the musician was and said:

"Ahem, ahem, a moment of silence please"

Allan wasn't sure if it was because Tom's voice couldn't be heard or if no one cared but everyone kept talking ignoring Tom.

When no one was listening, Tom became furious and spoke:

"Whoever does not shut up in the next ten seconds will be thrown out of the square!!!"

It didn't take half a second for there to be no one speaking.

After silencing everyone, he continued:

"Citizens of Green town, here is the person who made it possible for us all to meet here today, with all of you Allan." Tom gestured to indicate where he was.

clap clap clap

(So that´s the town name) though Allan.

Thinking that all this time he still didn´t know the town name made Allan realize that there were a lot of things that Allan did not know yet about this place.

"Now Allan will give a little speech, which means we'll be able to eat soon."

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap

A thunderous sound of applause echoed through the entirety of the place, causing Allan to smile bitterly.

After approaching where Tom was, Allan thought about saying a few words to express how much this year had meant to him, what he had learned, the people he had met and how much he has grown as a human being ... But seeing those killer looks in the audience's eyes Allan could only say:

"Um, thank you so much for everything. Let the banquet begin "

Cheers were heard everywhere and people began to eat.

As Allan watched the many people who were here, he couldn't help but notice the city guards, and apparently, he wasn't the only one.

The group of guards ate as if they had not eaten in day, even the instructor Borris was embarrassed to see this scene.

"Oe, slow down than you are going to finish all the food. Are you guards or pigs?"

Seeing that they did not stop he could only sigh.

"It doesn't matter, we'll carry that expense, if the food runs out we'll add food from the barracks" said Borris

"No, never mind, I heard that the food of the guards does not taste like anything" said someone from the audience.

"What have you said?!!!" Instructor Borris was preparing to scold the person who just said that when he realized that the voice was coming from a child.

When the boy was shouted, he got scared and began to cry. Instructor Borris couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, especially with his parents staring him as they tried to comfort the little one.

"Okay, don't cry, you won't have to eat that thing we guards eat" Tom said trying to cheer him up.

"Do not say that. Our food is not tasteless, right guys? " Instructor Berris said.

The soldiers lowered their heads.

"It is tasteless" said one of the soldiers.

"What?" said the instructor

"See, I told you" said the boy who looked very proud for other people to support him.

"Instructor, it tastes like nothing"

"I thing we should change our menu"

"That's a good idea"

Little by little all the guards began to say how bad the food they usually eat was.

"We are tired of eating the same every day, it doesn´t matter what we do It always taste the same"

"We only can add salt to it. I want to eat a few eggs "

"I want meat"

Seeing the horrible eating habits that the guards are forced to follow people began to look at Borris as if he were a monster.

"That is too much"

"They don't even let them eat some eggs?"

"Horrible"

Hearing the whispers of the people around Borris couldn't help but turn red with anger as he looked at the guards with a dangerous gaze.

(Wait until you get to the bastards barracks. I will personally take care that food is the last of your problems) thought Borris as he watched the guards as they devoured the banquet as if there were no tomorrow.

Suddenly and for no apparent reason the guards felt a terrible premonition.

Seeing the faces of the guards, the people around started laughing.

While Allan was eating and enjoying the atmosphere a person approached him.

"Big party. It had been a long time since he had seen an event as lively as this"

"Carl" said Allan "How long, how's everything for the bookstore?"

"Bah, don't make me talk. Since more foreigners started arriving, my days of peace and quiet have long since vanished" Carl said as he sat down next to Allan.

"They're a gang with no respect for books and they're always causing trouble ... No offense" Carl said after realizing who he was talking to.

"Don't worry," Allan replied.

It's true. More and more players come to Tutorial Island, all filled with excitement and a desire to explore. It is normal for more and more incidents to occur.

According to Allan's estimates there are currently more than twice as many players as when he arrived on the island.

As Allan listened to Carl's problems, people had started to get up from their seats and start dancing.

The music was playing and everyone was having a good time.

By the time the party was over the sun was already rising and, with the exception of those who fell asleep at the site, only a few were left there.

"Urg, we're going to have to pick up ourselves, right?" Tom said looking at the pile of trash that was left after the party.

Sara could only sigh "Yeah, and not only pick up the garbage, we also have to remove the tables and chairs and clean the square"

That was the agreement they had reached with the captain so that he would let them organize the party last night, otherwise it was all collected when the vice-captain comes to check it, they will have problems.

"It's fine. Leave, I can do it myself" said Allan.

"How are we going to leave you here? We will help you" Sara said ignoring the words Allan had just said.

"Seriously, go home and sleep a bit" replied Allan upon seeing Sara's refusal "You still have to go to work soon, I'll finish quickly"

"But-

"Okay, if that's what you want, we won't get in the way of your wish" Tom said with a serious face.

"TOM" Sara yelled at him.

Tom grabbed Sara by the shoulders and said:

"It's your decision, we have to respect it"

BAM

"Where do you think you're playing" Sara said as she hit Tom.

"Hahaha. It's fine. Leave it is too late" said Allan when he saw them fight.

"You're sure?" Sara said something indecisive.

"If, in addition, you have helped me organize the party, it would not be correct for me to ask you for help to collect"

"Then we're going," Tom said as he dragged Sara with him.

Seeing those two leave Allan couldn't help but smile as he made himself a bit sad, imagining that he would never see them again.
