67 Chapter 67

Anyone would be happy to know that their saviors were alive and that was the case with them as well. However, the announcement had also surprised them as they heard that the church was hunting them down and they were their number one enemy now they didn't know what to say They would want to help their saviors, but also could not jeopardize their family's safety above anything else.

With that in mind, they made plans to get away from the city before someone would remember that they had a connection with them and try to get a place to settle down for somewhere near Aradeum.

However, when they got back to their temporary place they were shocked and feared for the worst when they saw the head paladin was standing there in front of their small temporary place to stay but there wasn't anyone else around him.

"Willard the person I just wanted to meet." The head paladin said as he looked at Willard seriously. "Follow me let's go somewhere more private to talk as here even the walls have ears." He said while starting to walk in another way.

Willard just looked at his family and nodded them to follow also. Initially, he was worried because of the sudden appearance of the head paladin. But seeing that the man visited them alone made Willard feel slightly at ease.

"I don't believe in that announcement. They saved our lives and sacrificed themselves so that we could get away," Felice said while holding on to her son Rolfe.

Willard quickly placed his hand to Felice's mouth to stop her from talking, and slowly brought her a little to the side of the road as he watched how the men of the church walked by past of them.

"Shhh, I personally know that also but be careful what you say in public now." He said softly, worry laced on his voice before continuing, "It's especially dangerous to even mention them as there is the bounty on their heads and the church is using every method to get them. So we don't want to be associated with them for now despite us owing them our lives. Do you really want to test the church's torture chambers? Or the possibility to break our family apart and leave Rolfe alone or worse to be dead?" Willard asked threateningly while as his wary on his surroundings, confirming that there weren't any other ears hearing their conversation.

After they heard the announcement and saw the bounty the church had put on their heads they were happy at first before it turned into shock.

They continued to follow the head paladin. When the head paladin stopped they were already on the ruined part of the city where there was an open field that guaranteed a view to every side without leaving any place out of the view. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.

"I guess you feel better to talk here. This will help with my plans as well." The head paladin started. "So, Willard, I know that it was me who introduced Levin to you and now I have placed you and your family in a dangerous situation. So for that, I apologize". The head paladin said solemnly as he looked at Willard and his family apologetically.

After releasing a deep breath, "I have a plan to get you away from the city now and I have packed everything necessary items here." The head paladin said and took a spatial pouch and gave it to Willard. "There is a map, note with all the information you need to know, new identify for your family and all the necessary resources you would need for this journey." The head paladin continued while looking at their surprised faces.

"I…I don't know what to say," Willard muttered unsure after awhile. He was still looking at all the items that the spatial pouch and unable to hide his surprise at what it contained.

"No need to say anything at all as it was me who got your family to that spot, but I cannot stay long here or they would start to suspect that something would be amiss as I was close to Levin." The head paladin said, as he turned around and quickly started to take his leave. He was clearly worried about the possibility of putting the family to more danger again.

After the head paladin was out of sight, "Willard, what are we going to do now?" Felice asked while looking at her husband.

"I will carry Rolfe now and we will leave immediately. It is not safe to stay in the city anymore and we won't get another chance like this soon or probably never any more in our life." He said resolutely. The contents on the pouch were enough for them to start anew.  "So let's grasp on this little bit of hope, leave this country and city for now and maybe we will meet with Levin and his family at some point again. I hope by that time, we can properly say thank you to them for saving our lives." Willard said as he took the sleeping Rolfe from his wife's arms.

"Okay, I will trust you and follow you till the end," Felice said and kissed her husband's lips.

Willard gratefully nodded to his wife. "The fastest way to get out of this country would be by the city of Ostdale. There we would get close to the border and have a chance to cross it then," He said and immediately started to head towards the North.

"Where are we going?" Rolfe suddenly asked when he woke up. His eyes were curiously looking at his parents.

Willard smiled helplessly to his son before answering, "Weare just going to take a small trip Rolfe and we will come back soon. So just rest for now and take this as a new adventure for our family." He said as he playfully ruffled Rolfe's hair.

"Cool! An adventure! Where are we going, where we are going." Rolfe started to ask constantly without stopping.

"We are going to another country. But, for that to happen you have to behave well. You must listen to our every word.," Felice answered seriously.

"Okay, then I will behave," Rolfe assured and stopped asking. Despite that, he was but still looking curiously around. Every step of the way was a new surrounding as he hasn't ever left the city with the foot. This was his first time seeing the scenario outside of the city.
