The Most Satisfied Reincarnate - Chapter 173

And in the end, the mother and son pair chose to be with the mercenaries, which made the royal soldiers grit their teeth in annoyance, especially their captain.

Besides, it seemed that the boy hated Desmond to the bone when he woke up. Not only he continued to mock and shout Desmond’s name, but he also threw mud; such behavior…. was too childish compared to Desmond, who had the same age as him.

Ignoring the scolding from the boy, this horse-drawn carriage continued on.

This time the group found no other obstacles, apart from burying some of their comrades who had died due to the previous battle on the streets, which made their speed slow down.

As time went on, the sun went down, the carriages came to a stop, resting to wait until the night passed.

…

Meanwhile, inside Desmond’s horse carriage, Desmond seemed to have just woken up from his nap. He glanced around and found his sword and book lying on the table.

“Laura,” Desmond spoke as he saw from the window that a silver light from the reflection of the moon was illuminating his legs.

The accompaniment of a dark but dazzling black sky, along with the shrill sound of the repeating crickets, made Desmond aware that there was no wind or movement from his horse-drawn carriage.

Desmond checked the system map and found that his position was now on the plain close to a lake. Besides, he heard the sound of bubbles from the fish in the lake.

“Yes, young master?” After hearing Laura’s voice, Desmond refocused his eyes only to see Laura, who was using a thin cloth or a thin towel, covered from her chest to her thighs, showing her beautiful shoulders and long legs.

She also tied her red hair in a ponytail style with the addition of some of the hair left unattended on her forehead, making her eyes slightly hidden behind the loose hair.

Besides, Laura didn’t seem shy about her appearance. She stood in front of Desmond with her usual sweet smile.

Well, she has a nice body, but …

Even his eyes managed to scan Laura’s body from top to bottom quickly; this did not make him happy. He folded his arms across his chest and narrowed his eyes, “What are you doing?”

Desmond did not refuse to have this kind of scenery. It would be a lie he was not tempted as a man, but this was not the right time for that.

“Eh? I thought the young master would be interested… “Laura muttered in a low voice. She got this trick from the senior maids but didn’t think that it didn’t work on her young master. “Pardon me, young master. I’ll change immediately. ”

Seeing Laura’s sullen expression and seemed disappointed, Desmond just stared at her expressionlessly. He then got up from the bed and adjusted his clothes, “Wait here, I want to get some fresh air.”

After seeing Laura nodding off, Desmond opened the door to the horse carriage.

* swoosh *

The night wind that carried a chilly sensation blew right into his face and body, making him tremble slightly.

“Haha.”

“Haha.”

Apart from that, he also heard loud laughter from the front. There he spotted two camps split afar. One with tents with a simple design with no additional attachment was mercenaries. Meanwhile, the royal troops’ tents were more exaggerated, with a kingdom flag hanging in every corner and a luxurious temporary kitchen.

While the mercenaries and royal troops having fun and competing with each other, Vesta and her daughter were nowhere to be seen.

….

It seems they don’t like to socialize even in this wilderness where his troops are his power, or maybe he spoiling his daughter now?

Desmond turned to the side only to see a giant lake that was very wide; the lake was calm with water that was a thick blue that prevented people from seeing how deep and what was inside the lake.

As Desmond got out of the horse-drawn carriage, he seemed to have caught the attention of the mercenaries who were in the camp, causing them to pause and glance at him.

Unlike the tents of the mercenaries who were watching him out of curiosity, the tents of the royal troops stared at him with dissatisfaction. Some spat on the ground while looking away before going back into the tent.

Desmond didn’t care about the reactions of the people around him; he approached the lake and stood right, looking at his own reflection.

A young man with a handsome face wearing a white t-shirt has a wave design on the hand and his shining magenta eyes.

“Too slow.” His magenta eyes gave off a mysterious light while he spoke calmly.

When Desmond looked at the map, he was dumbfounded to found that his position was not too far from Capital City, but the bandits dared to act blatantly.

With his speed like this, it was only natural for them to reach Helmfirth city within one to three months, not to mention the obstacles they had faced before or in the future.

Looking back at Vesta’s horse carriage, Desmond sighed, “I have a bad feeling.” He then squatted down and scooped up the lake water with his palms.

* splash *

Right after he scooped up the water, a small fish accidentally got carried away as well and was now swimming on top of Desmond’s palm with the water slowly receding past his fingers.

Seeing this small fish reminded Desmond of the time when he was first born into this world, “Life is fragile; even elves who have a long life did not expect that they would become slaves to humans.”

Desmond then put the fish into the lake, and he also slowly unbuttoned his shirt, “In the end, only the beauty of nature was left.”

After that, he moves forward and slowly, his lower body touched the cold lake water; at the instant, the cold sensation attacking his smooth skin made his body shiver again.

Desmond’s action also attracted the attention of the people around him. Not only did they observe it carefully, some of them even laughed when they saw Desmond taking a bath in the lake.

When the lake finally swallowed Desmond’s body from bottom to chest, only then did Desmond try to stretch out his body.

* fizz *

He managed to float on the lake with the correct movements and timing, with his face staring at the dark sky filled with stars.

His long dark brown hair swayed and twitched as if alive inside the water while his long, wet trousers exposed the muscles of Desmond’s legs.

This made the jaws of the mercenaries and army men fall with wide eyes, exposing an event they had never seen at all.

Did he just die?

Thought everyone simultaneously as they saw Desmond’s magenta eyes staring at the sky without a flicker with a body floating on the water without any movement.
