章節 80: 80- Claiming Victory

The road going home was slow and bumpy. Arterius sat anxiously on his seat as the carriage jerked and wobbled over the stony road. He had already drunk the last drop of medicine he had stored during the trip, but his foot was hurting worse.

The carriage was better because it protected him from the rain and the cold Autumn winds. Well, he wasn't as strong and powerful as his brother, so, a gust of wind might make him sick with colds.
