"Hey Sylvie, do you think there will be any monsters that will show up today?" Chad asked her.

"Probably not. Most of the monsters show up halfway through near the middle of the bridge. We're only at the beginning of the bridge which is too close to land. The monsters won't risk their lives hunting near there." Sylvie replied as she leaned on the bridge railing.

"So a few days of waiting huh?" Chad muttered.

"Not necessarily so, but yes at the same time. Maybe the weaker monsters will come attack though. However, that's basically it until we reach halfway through our journey." Sylvie who heard his mutter said.

"Escort missions are pretty boring now that I think about it. We did all that preparation and now we still have to wait a bit longer to have some action." He sighed as he looked at her.

"There is still no guarantee we'll get any action if the other parties handle all of the monsters too." Sylvie added as she glanced towards the other adventurers.

"Just deal with it. It's not like we haven't waited before. It's just like the days in the academy. We didn't really do much as there weren't enough missions for us to take. The guild master even restricted us to take more as he said the other adventurers needed to take them to sustain themselves financially." Lance said.

"I wonder who they are though, for them to be able to issue such a mission. They surely aren't unknown figures. I wonder what is in that carriage of theirs. Is it something good? Is it something bad? Who knows, it makes me more intrigued." Maria said as she looked at the group that they were supposed to escort.

"You can be curious after we finish our mission. Besides, they don't look like bad people. They are a really diverse group I would have to say. They also have a woman as their leader which is a surprise." Sam said when he heard her.

"What do you mean by that? Am I not your leader?" Sylvie muttered when she heard what Sam had said.

"That's not what I was trying to imply..." Sam said weakly when he saw Sylvie's look.

"Hmph! I see you don't take me as your leader. I see how it is Sam. I see." Sylvie pouted as she looked away from him.

"Wait Sylvie listen I didn't really mean it." Sam cried out as he didn't want to get on Sylvie's bad side.

"Hmph!" Sylvie didn't even bother to turn to look at him.

"Sam you really messed up this time..." The group said as they looked at him with eyes of pity.

"I really didn't mean it though! I just worded it incorrectly! Forgive me Sylvie!" Sam cried out as he pleaded for her forgiveness. However, she just ignored him and didn't spare him a single glance after.
