Chapter 27 - Heading To The Capital

Chapter 27 Heading To The Capital

The next morning, at the entrance of broken

cliff town.

The three of them stood beside a

single-horned carriage, leisurely waiting for Roger to arrive.

“Sister Kasri, after we return to the capital, we won’t have to face those people anymore.

After I return to the capital, I can go out and play whenever I want to. I won’t have to listen to those gossiping women anymore.”‘

Huo Li ‘er stood beside the horse carriage and told Kasri about her plans after returning to the capital in high spirits.

Kasri was also looking forward to a free life in the future.

She and Huo Li ‘er were the daughters of the clan leaders in the aristocratic families. They were born with no way to control their own fate. When they grew up, they would be arranged for marriage in exchange for the stability of the family.

If the person involved in the marriage was a slightly more normal person, she and Huo Li ‘er would not have to use such a method to avoid the marriage.

However, among the two people who were to be married to them, one was a mentally disabled person, and the other was a cruel and unkind young master.

It would be better to die than to let them marry these two.

However, it was fortunate that their parents loved them very much. Under a lot of pressure, they made a bet with the elders of the family and the head of the other families.

He wanted the two of them to snatch the Lingzhi grass from the ruler of the mountain range with their second-rank strength. He would then agree to return her and Huo Li ‘er their freedom and allow them to decide on their own marriage.

The elders of the family and the family head of the family with the marriage alliance did not believe that the two of them could get the Lingzhi grass. They thought that the two families were looking for an excuse to fake their deaths or cheat their way out.

Therefore, for the sake of this bet, the families even used the heaven and earth contract to bear witness to the bet between the four families. If they were alive, they had to see them in person. If they were dead, they had to see their corpses. If any family cheated and broke the bet, they would have to compensate half of the family property to the other party.

Under such a contract, she and Huo Li ‘er did not even think that they could walk out of the Broken Cliff Mountain Range alive. Instead of marrying that trash or implicating their family and relatives, they might as well just die in the Broken Cliff Mountain Range.

However, to their surprise, just as they were resigned to their fate, Roger appeared and saved them, allowing them to successfully obtain the Lingzhi grass.

Now, all they had to do was return to the capital and hand the Lingzhi grass to their parents. Then, they would be free and no one would be able to interfere with their choices.

Just as Kasri and Roger were fantasizing about their free future, Roger, who had put most of his items into the storage space opened by spatial magic and was carrying a small bag on his back, slowly walked to the carriage at the entrance of the town after

saying goodbye to Augustus.

When Kasri saw Roger walking over, he

smiled brightly and said to Roger,

“Brother Roger, you’re here. Have you had

breakfast?”

Roger heard Kasri’s greeting and casually replied,

I’ve eaten. My name is Roger. You can call me by my name. It feels very awkward to call me

Brother.

Roger’s words made the three of them smile.

“Alright, Roger. We’ll be setting off now. Otherwise, we won’t be able to reach the next

town before dark.”

Roger expressed that he didn’t care. He didn’t

know the way anyway, so it was up to Kasri to

decide.

Seeing that Roger had no objections, Kasri prepared to get on the carriage and set off.

However, after the three of them boarded the carriage, Kasri suddenly realized a problem. She immediately pulled open the curtain of the carriage and said to Roger,

“Roger, the three of us are riding in a carriage. What are you riding to follow us?”

Roger didn’t answer Kasri’s question. Instead,

he put his hand to his lips and blew a loud and clear whistle. Then, he began to wait for the arrival of his mount.

The three of them were very confused by

Roger’s actions. Just as Kasri was about to ask, a wolf’s howl came from the small hill

next to the town.

As the bushes on the hill trembled, the wolf howls grew closer and closer.

A minute later, a giant wolf with silver-white

fur and a single horn on its head, whose strength had reached the second-rank, dashed out of the hill and quickly ran to Roger’s side.

The moment they saw the huge wolf appear

beside Roger, the three of them thought that the huge wolf was a wild savage beast. They were ready to rush out of the carriage and help Roger kill the huge wolf. However, just as the three of them were about

to make a move, they saw that the silver-white Wolf not only did not hurt Roger at all, but also approached him like a dog.

In the end, it rolled on the ground, revealing

its belly for Roger to touch. After revealing the giant wolf that had

nothing to do with the outside world, the

faces of Kasri and the other two were filled with surprise. For a moment, they didn’t know whether the giant wolf in front of them

was a big dog raised by their family or a wild wolf of a wild beast. After stroking the Silver Wolf’s belly a few times, Roger said to the three of them,

“I tamed it in the Broken Cliff Mountain Range. I’ll ride it and follow your carriage to

the imperial capital. The imperial capital should allow humans to keep pets, right?” After hearing Roger’s words, Kasri was stunned for a few seconds. Then, she said to Roger, “No problem. You can keep pets in the capital,

and the pets there are even more terrifying than yours. There are even weirder ones.” After getting Kasri’s reply, Roger let the Silver Wolf get up. After he sat on the Silver Wolf’s

back, he said to Kasri, “Miss Kasri, let’s go.”

“Alright, let’s set off now. Also, you can just call me Kasri, no need to

call me Miss Kasri.”

After saying that, Kasri rolled down the

window and had the coachman drive the carriage forward.

After Kasri’s carriage moved forward, Roger

patted the Silver wolf’s head and followed the carriage to the next town.

As for the Silver Wolf he was riding, it was

not tamed in the Broken Cliff Mountain Range at all. It was the first creature he had

summoned when he was testing the summoning spell last night, the Silvermoon

Direwolf, which had a trace of the bloodline of the Moonhowl Wolf. Since he didn’t have any means of transportation to the capital, he left the Silver Moon Wolf behind.

At the same time, in order to not let others suspect him, he had specifically asked the Silver Moon Wolf to wait for him at the entrance of the town.

Under the morning light, the three of them

and Roger embarked on their journey to the capital.

However, since he was travelling with the

three people with special identities, Roger was destined to face a lot of trouble on his way to the capital.

However, no one knew if these troubles would

become a helping hand in Roger’s magic training or the source of his future trifles.
