Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 297 Bumping Into Each Other

?

The next few days were quite the flurry of events.

Meeting nobles day in and day out, trying to find some people that were like minded to ally with.

I was able to find a few in the end since I had the experience from the game.

Of course, the ones that I chose were all those that belonged to the neutral faction.

The neutral faction was naturally the best for me since I didn't want to get involved in any of the politics of the capital. The less that I was involved, the less my life would be in danger.

I didn't desire that kind of power, I just wanted the ability to keep myself safe and live a peaceful life.

So staying neutral was the best.

The ones that I chose to befriend were those that weren't greedy and would have great power within the neutral faction in the future. They were weak now, but I knew what kind of opportunities they would have since there were quests affiliated with them.

When the time came, I would do those quests and make them even stronger while also building favourability with them.

It was killing three birds with one stone!

This was the power that came with knowing what would happen in the future in advance!

I was like a bird that was finally able to soar in the sky with my knowledge of the game unleashed!

Of course, I wouldn't go that far to involve myself in dangerous plots.

I made sure that the quests that I would have to do were simple ones that I could do even now. So there wouldn't be a need to worry about me being able to finish them in the future with my developed forces.

Finally, I was able to get a day off from having to deal with all those nobles.

Finally, I was able to sneak out and walk around the town without being hounded by the nobles.

But I was naturally confused why I was given this opportunity.

In fact, it was actually Scar and Shaka who had suggested that I go on this trip.

I was naturally surprised and confused by their sudden generosity, but I chose not to question it in the end. After all, if I did, then I might lose this opportunity.

I had been cooped up so long that I was about to explode, so I didn't care what scheme they had.

As I walked through the town with the cloak on me, I found that I was avoiding the attention of most people. Even if they could see me, it was as if there was something magical that was drawing their attention away from me.

If I had to guess what it was, it was most likely the cloak that I was wearing.

This had to be some kind of magic item that caused people to turn their attention away from me.

This cloak was given to me by Scar and Shaka and I was surprised that they would give me such a valuable item.

But I was grateful that they would do all of this for me.

However, I was also very concerned by the look that they had given me when I had left the inn.

They had looked at me with pity, as if they knew what was about to happen and they felt sorry for what was about to happen…

This had filled me with a bad premonition when I left the inn.

But now it seemed like I was too worried.

That was until someone suddenly bumped into me.

I couldn't help being surprised since they shouldn't have even noticed me in the first place. But as we walked past each other, that person suddenly stumbled and bumped into me, causing both of us to fall.

With this commotion, even the magic of the cloak wasn't able to stop us from drawing attention.

The person that bumped into me also had a cloak on, so I couldn't see what they looked like.

However, when I heard their voice, I could tell that they were female.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you." She said in a worried voice.

Then she tried to stand up, but she just tripped over her own foot and fell atop of me again.

When she did, I could feel a soft feeling coming from my chest as she pressed up against me.

If it was the past me…I might have been caught off guard by this, but I was a changed man now. I was a man with experience, so just this alone wouldn't be enough to catch me off guard.

Though it was indeed a soft feeling…

I gave a cough before helping her off me and saying, "It's fine, it's fine. There's no harm."

The girl was still panicking and tripping over her own foot, pressing down against me, but I did get stronger with training. I was able to help her stand up in the end.

Once we were standing there, I noticed that people had started to gather to see what the commotion was about.

This was the last thing that I wanted since I didn't want to attract more attention than I needed to. I had snuck out after all and if people were to gather, it might expose my identity.

So I took the girl's hand and said, "Shall we leave now? I think that we're attracting a crowd."

When the girl saw that I took her hand, she couldn't help jolting, but then she gave a slow nod to show that she agreed.

I didn't have time to think too much about it since I could see that the crowd was gathering around us.

So I pulled her by her hand and ran out of the area, pushing through the crowds that had gathered.

There were some people that had wanted to come forward to stop us since they saw a person pulling someone else away, but those people were stopped by others hiding in the crowd.

Under the cloak, the girl revealed a faint smile as she followed him.
