章節 233: Saddle

"What about you, Yoichi? What are you going to do in the meantime?" Shioko asked, wondering why her guildmate had asked her to meet him after a week.

"I have something to do first. I'll head to Oakenfair and look for Shusaku, Tatsui Nishiyama's blacksmith," Yoichi stated confidently, already prepared for that question.

"It takes about three days to reach that village. You get there by a road through the mountains, and its buildings are carved into the rocks. If you don't find the blacksmith within twenty-four hours, you risk missing the schedule and Princess Sui, and I could be in trouble," Shioko remarked, trying to be pragmatic.
