Chapter 60
“Quicker? I’ve by no means pushed Limbo so quick.”
“Ha… You’ll be able to take the important thing and observe me.”
Vroom, vroom, vrooom! As Noel pressed the button of the important thing with a relaxed expression whereas exclaiming, ‘Turbo driving!’, the horse shot ahead like an arrow.
Sylvia’s jaw dropped on the sight. She then got here to her senses, grabbed the reins tightly, and adopted Noel, shouting the identical factor.
“Turbo driving!”
Vroom, vroom, vroooom!!!
Limbo’s eyes flashed crimson at Sylvia’s phrases, and so they started to observe Noel frantically and shortly with a roar. Sevis grabbed Sylvia by the waist, stunned by the super pace. A powerful wind hit the 2 on the cheeks with out mercy.
It was so quick that the leather-based bangs hanging on both aspect of Limbo rose.
Zoom-!
“Expensive heavens!”
Zoom-!
“This reckless horse goes to run over somebody!”
The 2 rushing horses ran by the center of the village at a loopy pace. Precisely like outlaws. As the 2 horses handed by them immediately with a loud noise, the scene of the passers-by stepping again with an exclamation and falling on their butts passes by shortly. Sevis, who was holding tightly onto Sylvia from behind, shouted loudly with pleasure whereas dealing with the wind hitting his mouth.
“Whaat aa greaat speeed. It’s craazy!! I’m freee! I feeel aan infiinite freeedom, Miss Syylviaa!”
“It’s iincreediblee. Liimbo, youu aare thee beest! You’ree reeally supeerb!”
Limbo caught up with Noel’s international horse at a loopy pace, after which each of them went turbo-driving collectively.
Instantly, the high-class international horses left the village and handed by the dense forest, flattening the timber, and stepped calmly over the shallow river at a quick pace, as if overcoming gravity. In lower than three hours, they stopped in entrance of an old school mansion.
Screeech!
Due to the turbo driving, the journey to Noel’s villa, which might have taken a full day, was accomplished inside three hours. Sylvia sat dazedly within the saddle.
‘I heard that the wealthy pay for his or her time… that is what it meant…’
“Everybody, we’ve arrived. You need to come to your senses.”
At Noel’s phrases, Sylvia and Sevis stumbled down from the horse with their hair raveled from the wind. It was like they teleported there.
‘By the best way, is there no such factor as a teleportation portal within the recreation? Why did they hassle to place turbo driving on a horse…’
A cool breeze handed over Sylvia’s dazed face. She didn’t notice they moved to this point as a result of they had been operating at a loopy pace, however the air had modified.
‘Does this space have autumn climate?’
It appeared that the climate had gotten barely colder since they’d come as much as the northern space, so it meant they wouldn’t endure from the warmth whereas raiding the dungeon.
Sylvia, who was frantically fixing her raveled hair attributable to the turbo driving, regarded round. A small mountain lined in colourful foliage surrounded the mansion from behind. Then, when she turned her head to the entrance door of the mansion, she noticed a big stream and a marble bridge that they might have crossed, each of which she hadn’t seen whereas driving in turbo mode.
‘There’s a mountain within the again and a river within the entrance. As anticipated, wealthy folks construct their villas in the most effective spots.’
Surrounded by mountains and streams, Noel’s villa had a sublime and heat environment that matched his picture. In entrance of the villa had been a comfortable and well-adorned backyard and a small fountain.
The butler, who was the villa supervisor, and the servants welcomed the group and carried the baggage they’d hooked up to the saddle. Limbo and Noel’s horse had been taken to the secure by the coachman. Following the servants, a stunning meal was ready on a protracted desk lined with white tablecloths, simply in meal time. The tableware was all shiny, and he or she may really feel the craftsmanship on every bit.
Sylvia regarded round Noel’s luxurious mansion, the place there was nothing that didn’t appear prestigious, and realized that he was the son of a wealthy household.
‘Mr. Noel’s household is extra prosperous than I believed. Luca can also be wealthy. I really feel unhappy that everybody within the recreation is wealthy besides me. No, fortunately, Sevis’ circumstances are not any totally different from mine…’
Sylvia moved solely her eyes to take a look at Sevis, who was sitting subsequent to her with a reassured look on his face, and felt a way of empathy.
“??”
When Sevis smiled at her gaze, which he didn’t know the explanation for, she smiled softly and mentioned it was nothing, then turned her head.
Earlier than the meal, the middle-aged butler, who was the supervisor of the villa, out of the blue got here to Noel and stood beside him with tears in his eyes.
“Oh my… sob, sob… Younger Grasp, have you ever been consuming nicely currently? Why did your face get so haggard?”
Sylvia glanced at Noel’s face. He regarded effective, so why was he saying that?
‘He appears to be like sacred and exquisite as ordinary… No, it carefully, his face appears to be like slightly worse than once I first met him… Have I been pushing him too onerous currently?’
She narrowed her eyes and checked out Noel’s face. When she regarded carefully, she may see that small darkish circles had appeared on the white jade-like face that was freed from any blemishes. The power that had been nicely preserved all his life has been sucked previously few days, so his physique had grown weak. Noel smiled gently on the middle-aged butler, who was wiping his tears by urgent a handkerchief round his eyes, and answered.
“Don’t fear, Mister. I’m consuming higher than ever. No matter it’s, I’m consuming quite a bit.”
When he completed talking, he turned his head and regarded quietly at Sylvia, giving her an eye fixed smile. Seeing that, Sylvia felt her face warmth up for some purpose, so she hurriedly picked up a fork and scooped up the salad in entrance of her, and put it into her mouth.
‘Is he saying the factor he’s consuming nicely is me? Oh my… He’s sly… I actually like that.’
Sylvia tried to restrain the corners of her mouth from rising on their very own. If it wasn’t for Sevis subsequent to her, she would have despatched the butler away, thrown all of the meals from the desk to the ground, and rolled round with Noel. It was unlucky.
Unaware of the environment between the 2, Sevis mentioned politely, “Thanks for the meals!” and began consuming deliciously. Noel additionally smiled softly, prayed over the meal, and picked up the spoon.
After the nice meal, Sylvia’s group moved to the spacious and colourful terrace. As she loved the teatime, consuming freshly baked high-end cookies and consuming a aromatic natural tea, Sylvia felt that her recreation possession was lastly paying off.
‘Wouldn’t it’s nice to start out the sport in a home like this? As an alternative of that beggar 1.5 rooms home that’s worse than Limbo’s secure… It will be nice.’
As Sylvia and Sevis picked up the cookies and put them of their mouths and not using a break, Noel informed them to eat as many as they wished with a contented face, and that he would ask to convey extra if these weren’t sufficient. Whereas they had been consuming all of the cookies within the mansion, Noel known as the middle-aged butler and inquired concerning the state of affairs within the space.
“Has something bizarre been occurring currently?”
“Hm, I’m unsure… Ah, proper! In line with one of many maids, she has seen a number of suspicious folks carrying cloaks purchasing on the market not too long ago. In line with a service provider, the colour of their faces regarded a bit bizarre.”
“Hm… Did the rest occur?”
“Hmm… Come to think about it! The variety of animals within the again mountain has decreased. Unusual, isn’t it? You used to have the ability to discover rabbits, deer, and wild boars grazing.”
“I see…”
Noel nodded, and the butler, who had been staring into the air for a second, deep in thought, struck his palm along with his fist as if remembering one thing.
“Ah! And above all! Typically there’s a bizarre notice within the mailbox. Wait a second.”
The butler known as the maid and informed her to convey the notes. The notes had symbols she didn’t know the which means of, and languages she had by no means seen earlier than, so she couldn’t guess what was written. It was a language that neither Sylvia, who may learn books within the recreation world with a participant buff, nor Noel may learn.
“Is it the language of the monsters? What did the one who wrote this notice need to say?”
“I’m wondering…”
The maid listened to them quietly after which spoke in a low voice.
“Younger Grasp, there are rumors that comparable notes are being unfold all through the village. In line with the villagers, within the early morning hours, a bunch of unknown folks leaves the notes of their properties.”
Noel and Sylvia checked out one another and swallowed a groan. What did this sequence of actions imply?
The maid lowered her head and thoroughly opened her mouth once more.
“And I’m unsure, however… There are rumors that increasingly villagers are disappearing and not using a phrase as of late.”
Noel’s expression turned critical at her phrases.
“I assume I ought to contact the Fight Priesthood Affiliation within the capital for recommendation.”
“The Fight Priesthood Affiliation? What sort of affiliation is that?”
“Contaminated monsters typically seem within the capital or border areas, and since these monsters are troublesome to defeat with regular energy, the Fight Priesthood Affiliation exists to purify them. As I discussed earlier than, Elveus is the God of Conflict, so all of the monks in our temple are fight monks, and within the case of different temples, there are a small variety of fight monks in line with the Empire’s request. The temple we’re going to has been contaminated for a very long time, so I’m going to ask a senior with a variety of fight expertise for recommendation.”
“Hm… If there are fight monks, why did they go away the temple we’re going to contaminated?”
“The affiliation that gathered the fight monks of every temple… is an establishment of the imperial household. In different phrases, everybody within the affiliation is affiliated with the imperial household. They’re often busy working as monks, so that they don’t do something the Emperor doesn’t inform them to do… That’s why it was left unattended.”
