Chapter 176 Fly Air (2/2)
Now, she was steadfastly implementing her life goals.
”It's really soft and comfortable.” Lying on the sofa, she buried her head into the soft and comfortable cushion. Like a cat, she narrowed her eyes. It seemed like she wanted to lie there for a lifetime and didn't seem to have any intention of getting up.
Rhode didn't know why he unconsciously remembered a dog wagging its tail when he saw Anne like this, relaxedly sleeping in the sofa… Ah, or was a wolf more accurate?
However, Rhode didn't say anything more. According to the plan, they will reach Deep Stone City in central Paphield. After that, they'll live there for a night and then depart to the Black Pine Ruins in the morning. This wasn't too difficult for him; it was just that the time was longer than he had expected. He also had just learnt about the approximate time after he asked the captain before he left. It was only an approximate because even Gustav himself couldn't be sure; the floating ship wasn't an airplane, so it didn't have its own power or machine and could only rely on the wind. Sometimes the wind was faster, and sometimes it was slower. These days the wind speed was nothing to speak of, so if nothing happened, they would reach their destination by dusk, and the evening by the latest.
Since Rhode didn't expect this coming, it seemed that the return time might have to get extended…
After briefly looking at the surrounding, Rhode sat on the sofa beside Anne and began to concentrate on enjoying the view outside the window. Anne narrowed her eyes, comfortably lying next to him, but unlike Rhode, she was obviously uninterested in the scenery outside the window. It was already evident in less than five minutes: Anne issued an intoxicated sound…
When Rhode turned around, Anne had already fallen asleep. She was smiling sweetly, her blonde hair covering her cheeks, and she curled up her body, making her chest looked even more obvious…
Thinking until here, Rhode helplessly shook his head and sighed. He couldn't understand just how this girl could sleep just like that. Before they arrived, he had just pulled her out of bed. In addition, after eating dinner last night, she also immediately went to sleep. She had been asleep for more than ten hours already…
Looking at her now, it seemed like she didn't get enough sleep.
Seeing Anne who was happily sleeping, Rhode said nothing. He only shrugged and covered her body with his cloak, then sat back down on the sofa to appreciate the scenery outside. Suddenly, Rhode had a very strange feeling. At this moment, he noticed something. Anne, who was asleep, also moved her body, but she didn't wake up.
What happened?
Rhode frowned, trying to figure out the hunch that flashed by him, but couldn't figure anything out. There seemed to be nothing strange happening on the floating ship.
Was he just being oversensitive?
Thinking until here, Rhode nodded and sat back to the sofa.
Soon, followed by the slight quake, the scenery before him also shook up, signalling that the floating ship had begun to depart.
He didn't realise that at this moment, on the ladder not far from him, two figures were walking down. One of them, a girl with a petite-figure, took off her hat and looked at the room not far away from her with excitement.
”Sir Amund, the information you got isn't wrong right.”
”Of course, Your Highness. Although I don't know the reason, but I'm sure he's on this ship.”
”Very well.”
Hearing the white-bearded old man answer, the young girl lightly smiled and covered her mouth. She rolled her eyes and revealed a cunning expression.
”This is our chance, isn't it?”
