Chapter 81. Starfall Bay - 4
Orion, hearing his group talk among themselves, felt surprised that this bracelet could have such power.
However, since his body didn't possess mana, nor did any of his curses require that, he didn't feel anything when the bracelet was attached to him. To him, this bracelet was nothing but a normal bracelet.
But this couldn't be said for everyone; he felt that the situation turned worse for them because of this. Now, even if they wanted to escape, they wouldn't have the guts to do so given their meager strength.
"Follow us," one of the guards ordered the kids as they moved towards a boat in the distance.
"Let's go," Orion said as he took the lead, followed by Famir and Ryfin. The rest of the group hesitated for a moment, but they also followed behind the guards eventually. They were now weak as ants to these guards, so instead of angering them and dying a tragic death, they decided it was better to follow them. At least they could live a little longer.
Before long, the group of guards reached in front of a boat, followed by Orion's group.
But as they reached near the boat, Orion and the others were surprised to see many kids of their age standing at the side. All of them had the same bracelet attached to them as they had, but unlike their group, they didn't appear to be in despair but rather angry.
And not just any anger, but deep seated hatred, could be seen in their eyes. It was as though, if the bracelets weren't on them, then they would definitely have plunged on to the group of guards.
"Lart, whose group do these kids belong to?"
At that moment, one of the guards standing with those kids spoke to their guards.
Lart, who appeared to be the leader of the guards that Orion and his group followed, turned to look towards the one who called him, and a smile graced his face as he saw that man.
The man who called out to him was an old man of about forty years old who appeared to be wearing the same type of clothing as the pirates' time.
"It's Ralf's," Lart said, smiling. "However, because he had been missing for a week, he won't receive the rewards."
"Ah, so it's Ralf's group?" The man said this as he looked at the kids. "But they didn't appear much better than the ones I brought."
"Well, I don't know about that," Lart shrugged at him. "So, how much longer will the boat leading to Aethelgard City take?"
The man took out a pocket watch to check the time, and then he turned to Lart.
"In about fifteen more minutes, we should be able to see the boat," he said.
Lart nodded at him and stood there, waiting for the boat to arrive.
"Alright," she said. "Take them to the boat. We will live in an hour."
Lart and the other two middle-aged men nodded at her.
"Just quietly get on the boat," Lart said to Orion and his group. "And don't try anything funny. It's for your own good."
"Go and follow that bald man's group," he further said as he pointed to the bald man.
Everyone in Orion's group looked towards the bald man's group when they noticed that the first to climb the boat were the ones who were already here when Orion's group arrived.
The kids of their group climbed the boat one by one, led by the middle-aged man.
A moment later, everyone climbed, and it was now the bald man's group that turned to climb.
"Go now," Lart said, looking at the bald man's group climbing the boat.
Orion took the lead and walked towards the boat, followed by Famir and Ryfin. The other transmigrators soon followed before him.
As the kids from the bald man's group climbed, Orion and his group also climbed the boat after them.
Once everyone boarded the boat, the man and the woman also climbed it.
But as if remembering something, the woman turned to Lart.
"Tell Jabal that we will need more stocks of kids in the future," she said. "Three to four stocks this whole week. Understood?"
Lart nodded.
"Good," she smiled as she boarded the boat.
After some time, a group of people came and stepped down the boat, carrying heavy bags on their backs.
Orion observed that there were about ten to fifteen people in the group, all carrying bags down the gangway.
After they fully left the boat, the gangway was taken back inside the boat before the boat started moving back. Once it was at a safe distance from the land, it turned and set sail for the ocean.
