Chapter 317: Patience is Key

The mages saw Arthur, but he disappeared in the next instant, making all of them wonder who exactly was he. It was time to leave Wind Lake, and the best way to do so was by getting inside of a carriage and chilling.

"Yes, I can put you in, but seeing how you are not strong to act as a guard, the price will be higher." A merchant said.

It was common for people to get a ride with the merchants, as they usually travelled from city to city, and it was cheaper than getting a carriage for one person only.

"No problem. Where does it lead?"

"We will have a stop of one day through all the cities which are in the way of the Scorching Sun Academy."

"Oh? Scorching Sun? Why are you guys going there?" Arthur asked.

Scorching Sun was the school where Theo was, so that would be an opportunity to see him, as well as look for clues in the cities along the way.
