Tony Selles was galloping on a muddy trail, or more accurately his horse is galloping, while this young half-dragon lad was hanging on to the horse's back in any way possible.
Although he had long lost those terrifying creatures, he still frequently looked back as if he would be swallowed alive if he was not careful. Sweat dripped down his freckled face, wetting Tony's bloody clothes.
The large amount of blood on his clothes belonged not only to Tony but also to at least seven or eight other people, such as Village Head Kedon, the Hayden family next door, Alchemist apprentice Miss Luna, and his father and brother...
He clumsily clamped the horse underneath him with his legs, urging the old horse with a poor mental state to accelerate slightly. The oncoming cold wind became even more violent, the sweat on Tony's forehead fell into his eyes, and then mixed with tears, blood, and dust it scattered in the air.
