Regressing Through the Apocalypse with the Third Male Lead-Chapter 50: Volume 2 -

At the central part of the village, where the main base was located and where everyone was currently gathered.

"Ate Freyah! I want to come with you please!"

"Yes, me too! It is not fair"

"Ate Freyah, don’t leave us out again!!"

"Come on!"

Cheral and Cheryllyn voices boomed inside the room, pleadingly. Where everyone had gathered to discuss Freyah’s plan of traveling to secure some supplies The tension was palpable in the room but the silence wasn’t present as the two kept insisting on their ways.

Freyah was seated at one of the chairs, her parents beside her and Uncle Thomas and other elders.

Freyah shook her head, "You two are more needed here" She firmly spoke leaving them to no argument but the twins insisted. Harley sighs at the corner watching the two three tantrums again, As usual.

The elders had enough and had to drag them out of the room despite the struggling and protest, Freyah sighs again watching this, she couldn’t afford to put anyone at risk being with her.

After the twin was out everyone could focus again on the decision making. Even though everyone at first disagreed with Freyah’s plan but who couldn’t stop her truly once she had set something to do and knowing Freyah everything she was doing surely had some great purposes. For now they should trust her and wait.

***

One week and two days before the incident, At the underground storage basement where everything was stored.

Uncle Thomas was securely checking and managing everything down there, every cabinet and freezers. As soon as he sensed another presence from his back, he quickly glanced up and turned around, seeing Freyah on her way to him.

"How’s everything in here Uncle Thomas?" She asked and stopped just a few inches away from him.

"Everything is secured and our food isn’t not a problem my dear but we’re running out of meat not of a big deal* Uncle Thomas spoke with seriousness as he pointed out the decreasing supply of meat inside the three freezers, it won’t last for a month now.

Freyah nods "Yes I can see that Uncle Thomas" She agrees gazing around the storage basement as Uncle Thomas manages the place.

"Although we have some endless supplies of fruits and vegetables, a sudden lack of meat will put everyone to a hard time," Thomas added, although at their current situation they shouldn’t be really worrying about not having any meat and be grateful for what they currently have.

Freyah agreed again. Uncle Thomas was right, after all Freyah had intended to keep everyone safe and comfortable. "but Freyah I’m not asking you to go out and seek for this mere things" Uncle Thomas give advices, "We will hold a meeting about this and have the people adjust to it, you’re not responsible for anything" He tries to reassure hoping Freyah wouldn’t go out recklessly.

Freyah stays silent for a moment as if considering his words before smiling and nodding again, "Don’t worry Uncle Thomas I’ll be careful" She reassures him back defying the old man’s advice who can’t even scold or stop her.

The two continue to tackle supplies and the enhancement of wall defenses, With Thomas ability they could do more without lacking anything.

Back in the present,

While the meeting was ongoing inside. Florence had chosen to stay outside, he didn’t need to listen to the meeting knowing it’s just Freyah’s gesture of respect for the elders and her parents, knowing well that she still needs to include them in everything she will do so she wouldn’t leave anyone worrying over her.

The sky was peaceful, far from the incident that almost covered everything into darkness, everyone was back to their normal things to do as if nothing had ever happened.

Florence had his eyes fixated to nothing, He was still in deep thoughts about their current situation. He could feel this strange, hard and heavy feeling in his chest and mind, something that made him feel uneasy, that something bad was about to happen soon.

He’s been through this kind of life and situations so his guts and instinct were telling him that there is big coming to shake them soon, Something far more dangerous than just mere demons and involved zombies and it has to do.

Whatever that is, he can shake off the feeling that it somehow has connection to his world, and the reason is still unknown. If demons had already fled here there must be some kind of open portal somewhere that granted their way here.

But for now he shouldn’t dwell on it too much knowing he wouldn’t get any answers despite how much he tries to do so.

All he has to do at the moment is to make sure Freyah is safe. It wouldn’t be fair if she’s the only one fighting. So he had to prepare, he needed to train his body as well if he needed to do the purification ritual thrice in a row again after all it wasn’t just zombies they’re dealing now but demons.

"What are you thinking, hm?" Florence snapped back to reality as Monica’s voice registered to his troubled mind and his gazes shifted down on her and sighed, giving himself a time to breathe and relax.

Monica started flickering her thumb and ring finger together inches away from his face to have his attention, as she can see that he was too lost in his thoughts as if he was carrying the world on his shoulder.

Monica’s expression shifted to teasing before speaking, "Worry much?" She smiles, her tone was teasing with her eyes sparkling, reading his expression as Monica stood in front of him, Florence sighs again and scratches the back of his neck. Indeed he is worried.

"Lady Lima... it is just, she was the center of danger now and I wanted to take responsibility to keep her safe as much as she had kept us all safe till now" He spoke firmly, brushing off Monica’s teasing tone with his serious one.

While Monica just smiled even wider.

"Aha I knew it!" she declared as if she had confirmed something which made Florence raise his right brow in confusion, Did he said something wrong? While Monica just whispering to herself and giggling fгeewebnovёl.com

"But okay, as you said you will take just responsibility," she chuckles, still teasing the Prince who clearly doesn’t understand what she meant or what she was talking about. Did he miss something? While Monica whispers again to herself.

"Well..if Freyah is the main character so she should really have someone to be shipped with hehehe, Well Florence is still a weirdo but he’s a green flag as I observed him but he do have some kind of attachment issues" Monica keeps murmuring which Florence was trying to hear by leaning a little closer but failed to get something before he was momentarily taken aback as Monica surprised him again.

"But hey! ’your highness’ don’t worry too much, My best friend is strong and it’s not just you who wanted her safe, everyone wanted to protect her as much as you do, but she’s really stubborn about going out by herself as if she didn’t need anyone" Monica smiles a little hint of sadness in her tone of voice.

Then her hand reached up and she patted his shoulder, "But cheer him up? I kind of ship you for her cause you’re determined to save our Freyah, but don’t tell her that hahaha" Monica giggles, imagining her ship sailing.

Florence gave a confused look, "Ship me for her? What does it mean?" He asked which Monica almost facepalm remembering that he was still foreign for some terms here in their world.

"Nothing ’your highness’, Just keep up the good work!" She shrugged and just smiled smugly and walked out of there.

Florence smiles, shaking his head. Sometimes he still can’t figure out something in this world. For a moment he thought he already knew everything but then suddenly another thing surprised and confused him.

Ship? What does Lady Monica mean? Does it have something to do with their traveling?

He gave up. It’s useless anyways.

He will definitely won’t know unless someone explains it to him but Florence won’t ask anyone anyways not wanting to appear unknowledgeable.

He shifted his attention back when the door to the main room finally opened and everyone started to leave, signalling that the meeting was over, Florence stands straight from where he was leaning and waits for everyone to leave until it was just Freyah and Uncle Thomas inside*

He moved himself and entered the room

"Lady Lima" He called as he approached standing by the table and looked at Freyah and Uncle Thomas

Freyah acknowledged his presence by giving him a nod as she stayed seated on her seat while Uncle Bill was already standing up and went to the window side.

A moment of silence echoed before Freyah looked up again to Florence,

"All is set your highness, we’ll leave tomorrow"
