章 253: Home At Last!

Inside the moving carriage.

"C-can the blindfold on my eyes be removed now?" Sofia asked her companion politely.

Zero glanced at his companion a few minutes later. His mind was preoccupied with the thoughts of getting Nini back to the capital without any delay. His parents were supposed to come to town, but he insisted in his message that there's no need for them to come. He will just bring the missing girl to the capital. "W-what did you say?" he asked the girl.

Sofia changed her mind. "Nothing..." she said.

She remembered that Hera explained to her the reason for the existence of the blindfold. If she insisted it be removed from her face, the lord might get angry and will change his mind and drop her in the middle of nowhere! She needs to get home safely! So, she must stay obedient while they're traveling on the road to avoid upsetting the lord.
