Chapter 23: 1.23 Blind

Evander hugged Luke tightly, grateful for his help in catching four prey. Pulling back, he asked eagerly, "Do you really think I'll win?"

Luke answered with confidence, "Absolutely. Most people only catch one or two prey."

Evander beamed with happiness and gratitude, exclaiming, "Thank you for your help, Da-Ge!"

Luke nodded and signaled for his attendants to leave. "I'm going to ride around," he said. "I'll see you at lunch."

As Evander before had been pondering a way to part ways with Luke, he gladly nodded and mounted his horse with the help of his attendants.

He rode around asking anyone he encountered if they had seen leader Cole. When someone finally knew his whereabouts, he rode toward Cole at a fast pace.

Spotting Cole in the distance, Evander's heart quickened with excitement. He dismounted his horse and walked beside Cole, who was also walking.
