Chapter 672 (1/2)

At length, Yorko followed Hill's advice In the golden glow of sunset, their coach departed the city of Glow

All the coachmen worked for Hill, ere said to be for slaves with the caravan for several ti route by heart The fleet did not slon until the sun completely disappeared behind the mountains They still, nevertheless, continued with the procession for about two hours after night fell with the help of an oil la their tent in the wilderness

The coaches arrayed in a circle around a bonfire A young man who called himself Clown quickly fetched souy naician was responsible for patrolling and putting out sentries and Cho up booby traps These people were more like members of an army than of an acrobatics troupe

Yorko found he did not need to do anything other than waiting for the delicious porridge to be served to hiot a plate of bacon and an apple

He now understood why Hill had decided to include wheat and fruit in their cargo

The food in the tagons, the so-called ”goods for sale”, would suffice to feed all of thehout the journey even if they had to commute for one to two months

Yorko wondered if Hill had prepared to flee the Kingdo before, for it had not taken hi tiuards that Hill had kept in touch with Black Street Rats ”Jesus Is that guy really just an acrobat?”

Yorko resolved to ask his old friend about it after he returned to the Kingdom of Graycastle

All the coache and stayed at the outer-ring respectfully, leaving Yorko, No 76 and the four witches in the circle

”I apologize for what I said and did the other day,” Annie said cordially ”You didn't hand us to the King of Dawn, but I still can't fully trust you”

”Why?” Amy looked confused ”He doesn't look like a bad man”

Yorko blushed at this coood ht of the bonfire that nobody perceived it ”Ahem, I reckon that Miss Annie still feels suspicious of the sidom of Graycastle”

”Simplicity?”

”For example, some powerful nobles love to keep sos”

”That's just one of my concerns,” Annie interrupted ”Whether it's in Wolfheart or Graycastle, all such organizations will be essentially the same if they intend to lure and abuse witches with lies If the one in Graycastle does operate in the way you claiy to you”

”It doesn'tyou to King Roland What happens next doesn't have anything to do with ize to me, you may not have a chance to see me in the future”

There was an aard silence For a second, no audible sounds could be heard except the ”crack, crack” of the bonfire

Yorko was usually very good at socializing and , however, with these witches They had not only disturbed his peaceful life as an aation in a risky position There was nothing wrong about being cautious, but the fact that his every single act was under scrutiny really irked him

In the end, No 76 broke the silence
