There was furious banging on the door, and it got louder and louder. When we left through the hidden door, I could hear the main door being kicked open from behind me, but I did not have the leisure to turn around and look. I quickly picked a direction and just ran as fast as I could.“Jeremy holds a lot of power here. You should leave the city in that direction. Otherwise, I don't think we'll be able to get away from them.”I nodded and sped up. Several figures were chasing after us from behind, so I did not dare to slow down at all. My survival instincts had been completely ignited at this moment.Fortunately for us, we were able to get out of the city without any problems. I breathed out a sigh of relief as reaching the outside should be somewhat safer for us. Yet even after running for a while, they were still following closely behind in pursuit. I could feel the energy in my body sapping and knew I would not last for much longer if this went on.

The little creature was watching me intently with a curious expression, just like I was doing to it, but it seemed a little afraid of me.“Hey, little guy. What are you?”I tried communicating with it, but it did not seem to understand me. I thought of using Song of Living Spirits to communicate with it, but I quickly dismissed the idea since Alyshah was right next to me.I approached it as slowly as possible so as not to frighten it, but it suddenly squeaked at me and took me by surprise.“Don't worry, I don't mean you any harm,” I said gently as I raised my hands to signal that I did not have any hostility toward it. This time, it seemed to understand what I meant as it did not squeak at me again, but it still kept watching me warily.When I was close, I tried to pick up the shield but I did not expect to anger it. It stretched its neck out and snapped at my hand.Luckily, I reacted in time and pulled my hand back before it cou

"Leave this place, quickly! If they find you, then you won't be able to escape!" the village chief urged me anxiously. However, Bailey did not agree with the village chief."Why are you driving Leon away, Chief? The only way we can be free now is if he helps us!"The village chief glared at the orphan boy and rebuked him, "What do you know? This is the problem of our village to begin with, so why should we toss the responsibility to someone else? There are some things that you just don't understand yet, boy. It's better if we don't drag anyone else down with us."Bailey looked at the village chief in disappointment but said nothing to refute him. I was just about to ask them how they got into this situation when a group of people stomped over to me."He's the one!"I turned around to see the guard that I had sent flying with my fist. He had returned with a group of reinforcements.I did not recognize anyone in the group, save for the woman at the front,

"Oh, oh my god, you're amazing! Harder, harder! I'm about to… Ah…!""That's right, you dirty slut. That bastard Alfred used to fuck you, didn't he? Tell me, who's better in bed, me or him?""You're both… good! Ah…!"Liam did not seem to be satisfied with Shelly's answer, so he grabbed her by the hair and thrust even harder, over and over again, forcing her to plead for mercy."No, you're… better… much better! I can't take it anymore… Ahh!"A satisfied grin appeared on Liam's face at her answer.I could hardly stand any more of this, so I cleared my throat to inform them of my arrival."Ahem. I see the two of you seem to be enjoying yourselves."My words finally drew Liam's attention as he turned a wary gaze at me."Who is it?"When he finally recognized who I was, a look of horror appeared on his face."It's you…? How?!"As soon as he saw me, Liam quickly tried to push

The man was not done speaking, but when I raised my fist at him in annoyance, it caused him to run in fear."Just you wait, I won't forgive you for this!" he shouted at me as he scrambled back into his carriage.The girl called Lucy was also quick and extremely nimble. She quickly hopped back into the carriage just as it began to move and poked her head out of the window. This time, that cute and innocent face had changed into something far more sinister. It was hard to believe that the two of them were really the same person.I did not take the situation too seriously, but that affair left me in no mood to continue resting. After shoving the rest of our food into our mouths, we continued on our trip.Without realizing it, we had walked to a deserted canyon after passing through several mountain paths. The only way out of the canyon was a small and narrow path, which would bring us to Rowe. Otherwise, we would have to take a different path through hills and mount
