Angele had been lying down in a relatively busy route and seeing several other carriages passing by, yet no one had stopped to help him. He never expected people to stop and help a total stranger like him until Avril’s group came. The girl reacted happily after seeing Angele wake up

“Actually, other people had seen me lying there but none stopped for me. Only a lovely princess like you would help a stranger,” Angele smiled as he said this. The girl looked pleased after hearing him say that.

“I only did what I thought I should do…” With a blushing face, she spoke. Angele conversed with the young girl for a while. She was about 11 or 12 years old. While chatting with Angele, she noticed that he was still too weak.

“You’re hurt and your wound is infected. Also, your fever isn’t gone yet, you better get some rest. We can talk later,” Avril kindly said, and then she asked the two swordsmen to leave the carriage. She wanted to make sure Angele could rest well.

The carriage fell silent after Avril closed the door. Angele lied down on the bed with a very tired face.

‘Check my situation,” Angele inhaled once, and he asked.

‘You’re infected with unknown bacteria. The infection is controlled by an effective drug. You caught an unknown flu and your body is weak. You need about 5 days and 14 hours to recover,’ Zero reported.

‘When can I at least be able to move?’ Angele asked something that was a significant issue to him. He needed to have the capability to react when threats approach. At this point, he was too weak to do anything. It was even more impossible for him to pick up any weapon. Angele felt so helpless because the infection and the fever made him weaker than a normal person.

‘If you consume enough food and have enough rest, it will take 41 hours and 23 minutes,’ Zero reported.

‘That’s a long time…’ Angele sighed in disappointment.

‘One hit from a rank 3 wizard apprentice and I nearly lost my life. I need to become stronger…’ Angele thought.

After Avril’s carriages left.

A young female deer slowly walked toward the place Angele had rested on and lowered its head to inhale Angele’s scent. A white owl flew toward the deer and stood on a branch by the side. Its whole body was white, yet its eyes were deep and dark.

“Wizard Renee, this is the end of the trail. The Tracking won’t work anymore,” the owl began talking with the voice of an old man. The deer walked around the place for a while before it raised its head to look at the owl.

“Based on the scent, he’s a fleeing wizard apprentice of Ramsoda College. I think he was just lucky. Otherwise, there’s no way he could kill Bahamut. If we can’t track him anymore, there’s nothing we can do. Bahamut’s death won’t affect anything, anyway,” the deer began talking as well.

“We need to stop focusing on matters that aren’t important,” the owl said.

“It isn’t the time to break the Treaty of Grimgar yet. Catherine and her crew already arrived at the destination. We mustn’t let Ramsoda’s main force live,” it continued.

“Waki sent a message to us from Acrylic. It says Liliado is making a new Rift,” the deer said.

“Yea, we need to help the Northland Alliance to finish the job quickly. I think Liliado already noticed the situation. Santiago also sent some of their wizards here,” the owl said.

“We’ll get the Shadow Pearl this time! No matter how many opponents we have!” The deer’s eyes gleamed.
