Chapter 413 3 Mens job 2/3 (2/2)
”You are referring to…”
Gillian tilted her head curiously to the side.
”Christie's prophecy?”
”That's right.”
Rhode agreed and nodded slightly. As a matter of fact, before both of them left the fortress, Christie once again said strange things that even she wasn't aware of. However, Rhode remembered that sentence clearly in his mind.
”Asin Bunyle Kuse.” (The Executioner is waiting for you)
It was the Abyss Language which she had spoken unconsciously before. As usual, she had no explanations for her actions. In Rhode's memories, there wasn't a monster or BOSS named as the 'Executioner' in the Castel Ruins. Similarly, there wasn't any individual or organization with this name in Eagle City. However, after this recent experience from Christie again, Rhode didn't think that she was speaking without thinking the matter through. But he had to admit that this little girl's ability to predict was indeed strange because he couldn't remember there was such a person in the Dragon Soul Continent.
”Although I'm not too sure what Christie was trying to say exactly, it seemed that it wasn't any good news. Master, we may have a much harder time after we arrive in Eagle City than we expected.”
”No matter what, be careful when we're there because it isn't our territory. Gillian, you…”

As Rhode was speaking, the chariot jolted suddenly which forced him to shut his mouth in order to prevent biting his tongue. At this moment, there was a dreary scream. Rhode turned towards Gillian quickly and to his surprise, the fox-ear young lady was still curled up in her seat languidly, as though there was an invisible line tying her tightly to the soft cushion.
”Gillian, were you speaking just now?”
”Eh?”
Gillian widened her eyes in surprise while Rhode noticed her ears slightly twitch.
”Ah, I didn't, Master. You must have misheard or something.”
Everything went well.
Although Rhode didn't stop for a break in order to pick up speed, they arrived at their destination, Klett Town, at dusk. According to Rhode's plan, they would be spending a night there, before heading to the White River Valley.
Upon stepping on the solid ground after a long journey, Rhode took in deep breaths of fresh air in Klett Town, which was filled with a floral and earthy aroma. While he was stretching, suddenly, the chariot driver screamed from the back.
”Wa!”
What happened?
Rhode and Gillian immediately ran to the back and saw the elder chariot driver sitting on the ground with an ashen face, pointing towards the box in the back of the chariot which was used to store traveling clothes and food. But now…
As they turned their gaze towards the box, what reflected in Rhode's eyes was a fair, delicate thigh dangling out from it…
