章 32: Riddles

In the end, the Great Elder relented and chose to trust Sirius's words. They were finally on their way to the palace after three days of exploring, with the Great Elder and Bucky guiding them.

But Alice still can't get her mind off of Sirius's words earlier.

"I just wanted to take my bride out to see the world. But now I can't let her down, seeing as she's now invested in this treasure hunt."

She discreetly covered her flushed cheeks.

"This palace is the least ruined structure from the kingdom," Bucky says to her. They walked side by side, while his Grandpa was at the front with Sirius. "It's because it was hard to locate that it wasn't raided as often as the rest."

"Will it be a difficult journey to get there?"

"I'm not sure, but since you're werewolves, you'll probably be fine."

She had a bad feeling about this…

"Ah…!"

There was a sandstorm waiting for them.
