บท 347: A Haunting Music (3)

Although Basil had made it clear that he wouldn't intervene in the matters of Lawson's army, he still took the lead to Southern Sea Region. Lawson didn't mind following his lead, but still couldn't help wondering where they were going.

Although he had only visited Southern Sea Region once, he was sure the direction Basil was leading them to wouldn't bring them there. He wasn't aware of the shortcut however, so he didn't say anything about it.

It wasn't until two hours in the march did he find many people share the same confusion. By this point, instead of going south, Basil was leading them southwest, which made it apparent that they weren't heading to Southern Sea Region.

Edward took the initiative to ask Basil about it even before Lawson. "Head Commander, I am afraid we are already off the course. We are heading southwest currently, which will never lead us to Southern Sea Region."

"Trust me," was Basil's simple answer.
