For The Glory Of Sitia Empire - Chapter 87

After half a day from heading south and taking bumpy roads, Lennox was convinced.

They got lost.

” admit it, you don’t know the way, do you? ”

” I told you many times! Everly knows her way, hmph! ”

Everly pouted as she sped up her horse. Since Jennings was busy with the nobles meeting, he wouldn’t notice their absence for a couple of hours. That was enough for Lennox and Everly to flee out of the capital all the way to Half Land forest.

Lennox sighed inwardly and kept following her. Unexpectedly, around an hour later, they really found a hidden array. On the surface, it looked like a massive mountain expanding endlessly towards the sky, one can even find a layer of dirt if they touched it. It was quite realistic.

However, Lennox knew it was an illusion from the first glimpse. This high-class magic array might deceive a top-grade magician, but not Lennox.

You CAN’T fool me bitches!!

Is what he had in mind….Lennox and Everly dismounted from their horses once they came closer to the array. Lennox analyzed the array’s mana flow before saying.

” The one who made this array must be a talented individual. It will take a while to break the magic circle formation, so I will just blow the entire array ”

Everly, who has been searching for something in her spacial bag, instantly flinched. She turned to Lennox with a face both teary and angry, barking at him.

” WHY are you so eager to destroy my family’s properties ba?!!!!! ”

Lennox raised his eyebrows and let out an ‘ oh ‘ sound. He averted his gaze from her, a little bewildered. He has always been responsible when dealing with non-human clans or societies. However, whenever it comes to something related to Everly’s family business, Lennox had that mysterious urge to explode things.

Example of destroyed properties: Bernard’s mansion, training arena, weapon storage, wine cellar, beasts stables….etc.

[culprit: Lennox. Falsely accused: Everly]

Everly hmphed and stumped her feet, walking towards the mountain illusion with a seal in her hand. Once she placed the seal on the surface of the illusion, part of it instantly faded. Revealing a large city gate.

Pouting, she took a couple of steps before retreating and turning towards her horse. Everly pulled the reins of the horse and entered the village.

It’s called a village but in reality, this place was two times wider than the imperial capital. Might as well just consider it a whole nation on its own.

Lennox sighed. He removed the parasol from his saddle, holding it in his hand as he followed Everly. The moment they passed the gate, Lennox felt like his eyes were going to bleed. To him, everything shined in yellow, that’s because everyone in the forest-elves clan was blonde!!!

The sun was enough to make him wish he could just dig a hole in the ground and bury himself. But an entire race shamelessly had to be so blonde that the sun rays were stupidly extra shiny. Although there were a few dark-haired heads, they barely amounted anything compared to the majority of golden heads.

Lennox closed his eyes pretending to be blind as he pondered in his heart whether destroying the sun or massacring the entire village would be easier. But after realizing that he will have to deal with an angry and depressed Everly later, Lennox decided to just keep playing blind.

He followed Everly relying on his senses while preventing people from bumping into him with his pheromones. They walked for a good while before stopping in front of a large metal gate. Lennox didn’t open his eyes but he could still sense the large building they are heading to, which mostly was some important individual’s residence.

Seemingly they have reached where they will stay for a couple of days ahead, thus, Lennox withdrew his pheromones. The moment he did so, a few footsteps closed form the distance, nervousness covered their voices.

” Young lady Maitea! Are you alright? Who is this- esteemed young master? ”

” This is my friend, we came together ”

Hearing Everly’s pleasant and cheerful baby voice made all the fear that lingered in their hearts, because of Lennox, disappear instantly. The old man who sounded to be this residence’s steward guide them into the building.

This time, Everly held Lennox’s hand all the way until they were left alone. This behaviour was different from when she hides behind him from those who can resist her aura. Everly holds hands with someone when there are people who are capable of drawing one’s attention. As if she was afraid they would leave her to be with them.

She does this with Jennings most of the time. Every morning, she would wake up early to gourd him from being snatched away. Once a fishy-looking noble or official appears, Everly would run and stick to Jennings, marking her belongings.

At the moment, Everly was guarding Lennox against the elves. Although they did pass by countless elves through their way in the village road, those were normal commoners, certainly won’t pique Lennox’s interest. However, the ones at her residence were all first-class magicians and warriors, the type that Lennox would definitely want to beat up.

” oh, gramps. Please send a message to Bo, tell him I will come visit tomorrow ”

” Headmaster Borraig? I will make sure to do so ”

After making sure Lennox and Everly were comfortable, the steward excused himself and left with a heavy heart. No matter what, he doesn’t like the idea of his cute baby young lady sharing the same room with an unknown dude!! Even if she was the one who ordered to not prepare a second chamber, it was still unacceptable!

” Is there any blondie? ”

” No, they all left ”

Everly said that as she dropped her body on the couch. They rode the horses for six hours straight, naturally, she had no energy. Lennox, on the other hand, sighed in relief and rubbed his eyes, slowly opening them.

“By the way, where the fuck are we? ”

” This is brother Ba’s house ”

And again, Lennox’s urge to explode things appeared uninvited.
