Chapter 339 - A place called Home (2/2)

With that, the group set off once again. They had taken several carriages from the camp. Ray and the others rode upfront while the rest of the folk road at the back along with the prisoners. The only person that was Left behind was adam, but they made sure he had nothing he could ride and no coins on him.

The only thing he could do to get out of the forest was walk on his own two feet.

”You can't do this to us, you're treating us like prisoners.” The men said from inside the cage.

”look at them.” Tuffy said.” A few moments ago we were the one's stuck behind cages, and now they're the ones screaming injustice.”

One of the guild members had heard what Tuffy had said and stared at him.

”You little twerp I'm telling you when our guild leader comes and saves us and get out of here you're the first one I'm going to go for.”

On the way to Avrion, the group had encountered a few more members of the Black Rings who had been stationed around the border. However, they were quickly dealt with by Ray and the others before they even had a chance to run away.

Now there was only a short distance away until they arrived home.

But during the journey, the group noticed that Ray was awfully quiet in the back of the carriage and more so than usual. When they first met Ray, he didn't talk much, but now he would at least talk about future plans and events and would often ask if the others were feeling okay.

Still, ever since they left the Black Rings temporary base, Ray hadn't said a word. What they didn't realise was that Ray was thinking the same thing.

'Why haven't any of them asked me about the black blood?' Ray thought, 'I'm sure they saw it too.'

Although the others had seen the black blood none of them cared. They knew Ray was abnormally strong, so something like this was hardly a surprise. Even Martha now when cut, her blood was tainted a little black, and Jack when he was in his werewolf form.

Everyone there respected Ray no matter who or what he was. If Ray didn't want to talk about it or tell them who he was then that was his choice. It wouldn't change who he was or what he had done so far to help them all.

The carriages then came to a sudden halt as they stopped just outside the city walls. Finally, they had arrived back home at Avrion city.

”Well, I never thought I would be coming back here,” Lenny said. ”Not in a million years.”

”Come on!” Jack said as he hit ray on the shoulder. ”Let's go home.”

”Home?” Ray said. ”I guess this really is home.”
