Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System - Chapter 645: Sect Disciples

"So what do you plan to do, we go to the village?" asked Benladann. "We spent a few hours buying and eating… I think the night is slowly approaching."

Indeed, we spent way too much time in there, it was just a lot of fun to go around eating the food they sold, drinking juice, and buying other stuff. It was something that we always have fun doing when we reach a new sect, although the last time we did it was in the Winter Lotus Sect.

"Sure, let's go there then, we could stay the night there inside an Inn, seems pretty okay to me." I said. "I've always dreamed of staying inside a classic Inn."

"Ohh? Well sure, although it will never beat being inside our home… But I guess it is part of the experience." Said Benladann. "Also we need to get inside a bathroom quickly to change Benladra's diapers and wash her."

"Yeah, I know, let's go…" I said. "Let's enter the village."

"This is interesting, I had never gone into a Village before!" said Yuki. "This place is pretty lively, there's less people but its way prettier than the sects, maybe because there is less snow, I am sick of snow." Yuki walked at outside while talking her mind out.

"Hm, I am also quite tired of seeing the sky all the time," said Fuyu. "This is really a change of pace."

"Yeah, I guess it is pretty good." I said. "The entrance is guarded by guards but they're letting people in with a small fee… they got walls made of wood that are pretty tall though, I guess it is so monsters don't get inside at night."

"I think so too, they're moderately well guarded…" said Benladann. "Oh? Who are those?"

As we walked through the road nearing the Orange Village, Benladann pointed out a group of four men, they were two ice giants and two giants, who were wearing clear blue and white robes with an insignia showing a frozen tear.

"Oh, those must be Sect Disciples from the country's sect… Maybe it has the same name? Frost Tear?" I wondered. "Don't look at them too much, or they'll notice."

They all seemed fairly okay in strength, three of them were Rank 3 Middle Stage or Upper Stage, and only one of them was Rank 2 Initial Stage, he was probably their junior.

"Yeah, but what are they doing around here? Are they guarding the place? I thought that they only dedicated themselves to guard the rich." Said Miranda. "Maybe they're just buying oranges?"

"I don't know but it is not good to meddle with other people's affairs, Miranda." Said Benladann. "Let's just leave them be…"

"Mama… Papa…" Benladra groaned at us, she was still having a hard time carrying her filled diapers, we had to hurry and ignore those sect disciples that were just entering the village before us.

"Ah… S-Sect Disciples… T-The fee…" said the guard, he was merely Rank 1 Upper Stage.

"What fee? We are part of this sect that protects all of you commoners, do we have to pay you to enter the village that belong to our sect?" asked one of the leaders of the group. Wow, they're really quite the asshole archetype, understood.

"N-No, please, walk inside. Feel free…" muttered the guard.

"Hmph!"

The disciples walked inside while raising their noses as if everyone else was just way too inferior compared to them. I guess there is really some classism in here, huh? Sect Disciples can just bully anyone. It's better to not get involved with those shady guys.

"Geez, they really got a stick up their ass…" said Yuki. "Jerks…"

"Yeah, they're pretty big assholes, can't they be more polite?" sighed Belle. "Poor guard, he almost had a heart attack. They even used their Mana Aura like nothing against him…"

"Well, whatever, let's just continue moving forward." Said Miranda. "No point at criticizing them if they're so far away now."

"You girls should really just calm down…" I sighed.

"They're really a handful." Said Fuyu. "Hm, I hope you find us a nice Inn that can compare to a fraction of my comfiness."

"I doubt that's possible…" I sighed. "But I'll try."

We reached the guard quickly after that, as I petted the man in the shoulders and infused some healing spells on him so he could feel better.

"Ahhh… S-Sir! Ahem… Thanks for the healing…" he sighed.

"Are you feeling alright? Those guys shouldn't had been so rude." I said.

"I-I am alright, thanks for wondering…" sighed the guard. He was actually a young adult human man with brown hair and emerald eyes, although most of his face was covered in the steel helmet he was wearing, and his body was also covered in the heavy armor, while he held a steel spear.

"Anyways, how much is the entrance fee?" I asked. "We are a bit too many… And there are also my tamed monsters."

"I see that you're a talented tamer, sir!" he said. "This is the first time I see someone that have tamed such a beautiful wolf, and then this… pink fox? Wow, is that an Ice Slime?!"

"Yeah, what about it? These two crows as well." I said. "Do I have to pay extra fees?"

"Y-Yes… I am sorry but tamed pets so big also cost some fee, if you register in the Adventurer Guild or another Guild such as the Tamer Guild or the Merchant Guild, you can enter with a discount, and depending in the rank you're in the guild, you receive a higher discount, from D Rank and above you don't need to pay to enter the duchies and villages." Said the guard. "It is around a silver coin per person, the children below ten years old can enter for free, and that slime seems very small too, so it can enter for free too. Oh, and those two children as well."

It seems the guard confused some for children here…
