Chapter 121 (2/2)
heir horses is gone as well”
Hearing this, Benja
For no reason at all, there was an ehts had returned to the city, the travelers were nowhere to be seen… if he had not already ht himself in a supernatural scenario
Where did the people go? Could it be that there was gold raining in the capital, e their minds?
Thinking of this, he looked down at ground around the carriage
The floor was messy and there were hoof prints everywhere It was obvious that the horses that were here were not the only ones that were bound to this carriage Not only that, the important part was that on some of the prints, he could see a small cross
Making patterns on horseshoes was such an unnecessary act, only the Church would do such a thing
But the horseshoe prints that had crosses on the at the direction, the people probably turned around here and returned via their original route
”Froht back by the holy knights” After soht, Benjamin came up with this conclusion
Michelle nodded
But even after realizing of the origins of the carriage, it did not help theuess what the Church’s motive was The Church came to capture all these people? Why? If they did not want anyone to leave, ould they open the gates to let them out?
So strange
Plus, he was the one the Church wanted The holy knights capturing innocent people, andno efforts to conduct a search, what could this mean?
Benjamin was still confused, but Michelle did not care rabbed the reins, and boarded the carriage
”No e is already here, there is no point rejecting it” She looked inside and turned around” Coet away from the capital as quickly as possible”
Thus, Benjae as well
On the carriage, the two did not head directly to Perseus Lake Instead, they took the long route to prevent being spotted by the Church
Their path inclined towards the west
About ten kilometers west of the Capital, plains slowly led to a mountainous area The mountains there were not tall, most of them were just small hills, but there were two taller ones Between them, the better known one was Mount North, it was once the base of operations of thein the land: The Bandits of Mount North
The bandits were long gone, and their boss that earlier had le shot Mount North should now just be an empty and abandoned mountain
Of course, they did not plan to hide there If they went there, they had to stray further off course, and that could lead to more unpleasant possibilities They just wanted to borrow the geographical advantage it provided to escape from the Church After that they could slowly make their way to Pearl Valley
Using the underground pass, reaching the Valley of Broken Ardom of Helius was their real motive
Time passed slowly, and the capital was left further and further behind On the way, everything was peaceful They did not have any encounters and eventually sense of ier slowly faded Benjamin even entered his di on repairs of the rift
Slowly, tiht in the sky slowly dithened
After spending so the repairs, Benjamin felt mentally exhausted and left his dimension of consciousness, ready to rest
On the carriage, he looked at the surroundings which was totally foreign to him Suddenly, he turned around and looked at Michelle
Luckily, sitting in the carriage, there was nothing for them to do It was time for the questions in his heart to be answered
”Initially, you acted mysteriously, like you had an ulterior motive But nohy do I feel like you honestly want to help me?” He frowned and asked
