Chapter 65: Woman with Guts.

Kael and Carter, weary from their journey, had reached an inn in the city, seeking refuge for the night. The inn was a modest place, with a cozy atmosphere that welcomed travelers from near and far. They approached the innkeeper, a portly man with a twinkle in his eye, and Kael flipped a handful of coins onto the counter, asking for a room for two.

The innkeeper\'s voice was jovial as he replied, "Of course, sir! We have a fine room waiting for you. Just follow me."

They were led to a room on the second floor, its windows open to let in the evening breeze. The room was clean, with two comfortable beds and a wooden table, and it provided a much-needed respite. Kael and Carter were grateful for a moment of relaxation.

Kael turned to the innkeeper with a warm smile, his tone friendly. "Thank you for your hospitality. We\'ll rest here for the day."

The innkeeper nodded in understanding. "Rest well, gentlemen. Enjoy your stay."

As Kael and Carter settled into their room, they couldn\'t help but feel relief as they removed their boots and stretched their tired limbs. It was in moments like these that the weight of their arduous journey lifted, if only for a while.

Meanwhile, in a different part of the city, a striking woman had arrived with a purpose. She possessed a magnetic beauty, with striking features and a confident demeanor. Dressed in leather attire that accentuated her figure, she approached a shop and showed a picture to the shop owner.

Her voice was calm but firm as she asked, "Have you seen this boy?"

The shop owner examined the picture and nodded slowly. "Yes, I have. He was here earlier. Seemed lost and confused."

As they were talking, a shady figure from the crowd attempted to steal something from the woman\'s purse, thinking he could go unnoticed. However, this woman was far from ordinary. She sensed the intrusion and acted swiftly, catching the man\'s hand in a vice-like grip.

The crowd began to gather, curious about the unfolding drama. The woman raised her voice, anger, and determination lacing her words. "Thief! Who do you think you\'re trying to rob?"

The man, now exposed, stammered in fear. "I... I didn\'t mean to. I was just..."

But the woman didn\'t let him finish. She kicked the man hard in the face, a swift and powerful blow that sent him sprawling to the ground. The impact drew gasps from the crowd, who were now enthralled by the unexpected showdown.

As the thief lay on the ground, clutching his injured face, the woman turned and walked away with a confident stride. She found a young boy among the onlookers and gave him a nod of approval.

With a grin, she told the boy, "Good job, young man. Teach this thief a lesson."

The boy\'s eyes shone with eagerness, and he didn\'t waste a moment. He pounced on the fallen man, delivering a series of unrelenting blows to teach him the price of his attempted theft.

The crowd watched with mixed emotions, unsure of whether to intervene or simply let the thief face the consequences of his actions.

Back at the inn, Kael and Carter knew nothing of the scene that had unfolded in the city. They had retired to their room for a well-deserved rest, with the hope of a peaceful night ahead.

The woman, after her confrontation with the thief, had arrived at a modest inn, her exhaustion evident in her posture. She was determined to continue her search for the lost boy, the picture of his innocent face etched in her mind. She approached the inn\'s manager and requested a room, her voice carrying a hint of fatigue.

"Good evening. I\'d like to book a room," she said.

The inn manager was a stout, middle-aged man with a welcoming demeanor. He gave her a warm smile and replied, "Of course, ma\'am. We have a comfortable room ready for you. Please, follow me."

But instead of the manager guiding her to the room, a female employee stepped forward, offering her assistance. She had a pleasant, accommodating voice as she spoke, "I\'ll show you to your room, ma\'am. This way, please."

The woman followed the employee up a flight of stairs and down a narrow hallway, her backpack slung over her shoulder. She noticed the cleanliness and warmth of the inn, appreciating the sense of respite it provided. The room they entered was cozy, with a single window that let in a soft breeze.

"Here is your room," the employee said, gesturing inside.

The woman nodded her thanks and entered the room, her thoughts consumed by her mission. She placed her backpack on the bed and briefly considered her next steps. With determination, she decided to take a bath to soothe her weary body.

She gathered her essentials and headed to the communal bathroom. Inside, the room was filled with steam, and the sound of running water from multiple showers created a sense of privacy. The woman found an empty stall, hanging her backpack on a hook outside.

She undressed and stepped into the warm water, her body relaxing as the tension of the day melted away. The soothing sensation of the hot water was a welcome respite. As she washed, she couldn\'t help but think of the lost boy, the little face that had captured her heart.

The boy\'s image played in her mind as she pondered the next course of action. She needed to devise a plan to find him. Her voice was soft as she muttered to herself, "Where are you, little one?"

The warm water comforted her, easing the stress that had accumulated over her journey. The sound of the running water was the only company she had, and it provided a backdrop to her thoughts.

After her bath, the woman stepped out of the stall, wrapped herself in a towel, and retrieved her clothes and backpack. She was resolved to continue her search for the boy, to find him and ensure his safety.

Exiting the communal bathroom, she returned to her room and began to change into fresh clothes. Her determination was clear in her voice as she whispered to herself, "I\'ll find you, little one. I promise."
