《How I Became A Jarl》7. Savior
Advertisement
There was only one thing left to do for today! Find a place to sleep over the night and something for dinner. Luckily we found an inn. We were the only people with armor on us so all eyes were on us again.
Finally, I ate something better than berries or rabbit. A stew… potatoes! And beer! I didn’t drink it for a long time! Almost heaven. Well… Tae is a softie but he can drink so much and doesn’t get drunk… I’m amazed.
I got drunk a little but I was able to stand. I only waited for Tae because he needed to go to the toilet. I was going to just sit here but then someone with armor came into the inn. He was muscular and tall. He treated the waitress like trash. When he was going too far I stood up and walked toward him.
“Could you maybe let her go?” I said as I watched the girl wanting to get free from his grasp.
“And what are you gonna do? You little sh**?”
“Glad you asked!” I said with my purest smile.
I took the metal cup raised in and smacked this guy's head with it. Then I pushed him. He fell to the ground with the chair. Before he stood up I struck the floor with my ax to scare him off. This new world is awesome! One of my childish dreams was accomplished! Saving a woman in need.
I thought that would be enough but then to my surprise, I got stuck in the back by that guy. Of course, a meathead like him wouldn’t slip off something like that… He also kicked me away and I went flying into the wall. Before he punched my face I dodged it and started running.

It wasn’t looking good already but he took my ax! He tried to attack me while I was on the table but luckily I dodged his attacks. I kicked his face but he didn’t even flinch! And my leg hurt like hell!
He grabbed me and threw me onto the table. He didn’t give me the time to rest and threw the ax. I was going to duck down but the same girl that I tried to help me was behind me. If I dodged the ax she might die. I already died once so whatever. I rolled back and knocked over the table and blocked the ax with it.
It went through the table a little bit and I got scratched. It wasn't a deep wound but it hurt. I was going to look where that guy was but he was already trying to pick the ax. Right when I thought that I’m going to die, Tae smacked this guy’s head with the same cup but in the back.
“What the hell did you do?” Asked Tae.
And with my smart mind and being the best person in argumentation I said “He started it!”
While we were arguing the woman that I “saved” tried to say something but we both didn’t notice. Then someone with a weapon in their hands barged in yelling “What happened!” Probably a guard or something.
“Who is responsible for that?!” Asked guard.
Few people pointed at us. Maybe because we were standing by the guy who went berserk. The guard was going to arrest us or something like that… I don’t know how the police and the law work here… but the woman that I helped blocked him.
“He didn’t do anything wrong! This boy helped me…” She said… wait… boy?! I’m in my twenties!

“Explain…” Said the guard and the woman told him everything that happened there. He only took the guy on the floor. I don’t know what will happen to him but what do I care…
“Are you hurt?!” Said the woman as he literally jumped on me looking for wounds.
I was going to say I’m fine but she noticed my arm wound and she screamed into my ear “You’re wounded!” and again before I could say anything she ripped her skirt and bandaged my wound with it.
“Let me repay you for your help!” She said and with those words, my new life in the village came to be.
