157 The truth and nothing else but the truth

Xavier was in a lot of trouble, he was outside of the main hospital, begging for someone to tell him what exactly happened to Anne, he feel like a *sshole, worrying for another girl while the other girl carrying his baby was resting in her home. Both Yasmine and Xavier tested negative, and her brother was having some progress.

The one that he was missing was his healer, Anne. He was expected to see her during their routine check-up, but another healer came inside. Xavier tried to ask him, but the only answer that he got was her team got a mission and need to go elsewhere. Whatever Anne’s mission was, no one was saying a word to Xavier.

He gave up for today, and prefer to go back to his barrack. Strangely enough, Vale and Henry also go missing.

“Don’t you know where your captain was going?” Asked Xavier to Taissa. The former sub-ordinates of Henry.

“I’m sorry captain Xavier, but captain Henry wasn’t my official captain anymore. I only know that he goes somewhere to guard an isolated encampment.” Said Taissa to Xavier.

“and you don’t know anything more?”

She shakes her head. “No, I am sorry.”

He let out a sigh and thanked Tassia for her time. Xavier thought it was a good night to head into the pub. He was convinced that Yasmine was searching for him, as for now, his mind doesn’t go to her. Arriving at the pub, he asked for a bottle of his favorite drink. His mind goes back to when Vale advises him about Yasmine.

“What is going on with you today, sir? You seem not enjoying yourself as much…” Said the bartender, but then he goes quiet, and chuckled, “Oh wait, you never really enjoy yourself at much though, even with those pretty ladies around you all the time.”

.....

“Well, I don’t know about that,” Xavier said to him with a snicker.

“Oh, come on sir, I know you, always the gentleman. That’s why I even helped you to guard the lady that insisted on being inside the room that I’ve provided.” The bartender chuckles, probably remembering the bizarre day. “She was so persistent, even sleeping outside in another room until the morning comes when she jumps into the bed.”

Xavier’s eyes went wide. He looks at the bartender. “When has the event happened?”

The bartender tried to think about it. “Maybe like two months ago?”

His hands were trembling. He asked the bartender once more, “So, I got so drunk and you even need to take me into one of your rooms?”

“You’re not just drunk, sir, you were so drunk, I need to be asked some people to help me put you into the room, and suddenly the young woman come and even begged me to let her inside the room to treat your hangover.” He chuckles while shaking his head, “I wasn’t going to let that happen, sir, especially when you scream a woman’s name. So I took my stand and guarded you inside while the young miss slept in another room.”

He looks down immediately. Yasmine was lying. After he asked the bartender to write everything on paper, he excused himself from the pub. Tomorrow morning, he will be visiting Yasmine and uncovering her lies. That’s when he bumped into a person he knew.

“Xavier? Hey, so glad to meet you here.” Foster, the guard, is an acquaintance of Xavier, his drinking friend.

With a lot on Xavier’s head right now, he tried to get away from Foster, “Foster, hey, sorry, I need to go now, I have…”

“Oh, come on, I am starving, let me treat you to a nice meal before you go.” Foster insisted on pushing him to go inside, but Xavier doesn’t have much of a choice.

They were sitting on the corner seating while Foster asked for two specials of the night. He smiled at Xavier who tried to smile back at him.

“I love this pub a lot. I was here almost every night.” Said Foster to Xavier.

Xavier nodded his head. “I have another pub that my best friends and I always frequented. I came here when I wanted to be with another crowd.” Muttered Xavier, remembering where he always got drunk and invited a woman to go and have some little fun with him, when he was drinking, The face of the woman sometimes changed into another face, a young woman with purple color hair and a beautiful smile.

“Yes, I noticed. I saw you here always with a lady friend, though, but it seems not anymore.” Foster gave him a chuckle, definitely teasing Xavier.

“I guess those days are over for me,” Smiled Xavier, with a glimpse of Anne’s beautiful face in his mind. He got calmer and initiated a conversation with Foster. “So, what are you doing nowadays? I remembered you told me that they are moving you into another post?”

“Indeed, it was inside the capital, thank Gods for that, but now I was guarding the east gate, and I am a master sergeant now.” Foster proudly tells Xavier about his promotion, “Soon, I’ll be a captain as well.”

“Yeah? Keep on dreaming.” Xavier chuckles at him. They teased each other back and forth.

They enjoyed tonight’s special menu with a light conversation until a guard entered the pub.

“Master sergeant!” Said the guard to Foster.

“Oh sh*t, you found me.” Gruntled Foster to the guard, “What is it?”

“There’s a mage that needs permission to go outside the capital, master sergeant.”

Foster seems intrigued. The capital is always on lockdown from ten before midnight until six in the morning. Everyone that wanted to go outside or inside the capital need permission from the captain or the master sergeant in charge. Tonight is master sergeant Foster’s shift.

“Fine, give me the permission letter.” Foster read the permission letter and signed it. After he handed the permission letter, Foster talks to Xavier, “Just a mage captain that wanted to go to into the isolation encampment.”

It intrigued Xavier. “What isolation encampment that we were talking about here?”

“Oh, I guess you don’t know about this… few people knew though, but the guard encampment where they were supposed to go into their field training got infected by the new variant.” He looked around and whispered to Xavier, “I’ve heard that an important person also got infected, so everything was so secrecy about the mission.”

For Xavier, everything makes sense now. Justice was trying to avoid Anne by going to the new guards’ field training, the healer’s secret mission, also the disappearance of Vale and Henry. All of them were there, in the new guard field training encampment.

Foster then added, “I guess captain Brom just wanted to meet with someone inside the isolation encampment. It will not be easy to go inside, though.”

“Wait, the permit that you had just signed earlier was for Brom?” Xavier asked Foster carefully.

“Oh, yes, you know captain Brom?”

Nodding his head, he then asked Foster a favor, “Foster, about the permit, could you also give it to me?”

A bit taken aback by his sudden request, he asked Xavier the reason. “I guess I could, but what for?”

He smiled at Foster, “I just love some adventure and danger.”
