Chapter 193: Chapter 155 Heading West (Desperate because there is machine trantion in the office!!)_2


    Surprisingly, as a Dragonkin, Greiya gets airsick!


    She was fine on the warship, but while riding on the Night Raven ck Star, Greiya started looking pale and nauseated… Now she was lying still at the back like a lifeless dragon.


    At that moment, a figure appeared beside Greiya.


    “Miss Greiya, please have some water.”


    “Ah, um… Thank you…”


    Upon seeing the offered cup of water, Greiya collected herself, took a few sips, and then closed her eyes again. Audrey, who was beside her, picked up a damp handkerchief and ced it gently on Greiya’s forehead.


    As for Lorena and Ogis on the other side, one was praying with closed eyes while the other was absorbed in a book.


    It seems that having a maid was indeed a right choice.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Duanmu Huai nced at the back and shook his head. To be honest, he wasn’t too familiar with Miss Audrey; they’d just met a few times. But her impression on him wasn’t exactly positive.


    Although the self-pitied female leads in urban romance dramas could be quite annoying, Audrey gave Duanmu Huai a different vibe. She didn’t constantlyin about her fate or grumble about the world treating her unfairly, nor was she particrly annoying. However, she seemed tock any personal characteristics.


    In other words, Duanmu felt that she was more like a puppet than Ogis.


    Although Ogis rarely spoke, whenever Duanmu asked her anything, she gave her own thoughts and answers—though some of Ogis’ replies could be rather damaging—yet, this at least showed that Ogis had the ability to think for herself.


    But Audrey was different. When Duanmumunicated with her, her answers were typically, “Yes,” “I understand,” or “Okay.” She felt like a robot just followingmands, emotionless, everything she did appeared to be out of obligation.


    Even though Duanmu Huai didn’t quite like the standpoint of “you are also at fault,” he would nevertheless have to agree that Audrey, who acted like a living puppet, was perhaps less attractivepared to a subus, and it made sense why young master Yald chose thetter.


    Thetter at least felt like a living person, while the former…was more like a living dead.


    Even though Audrey was beautiful, for Duanmu Huai, it seemed that she had nothing more than just a pretty face.


    To be honest, for men, this hardly added any charm points.


    Compared to her, someone beside Duanmu Huai was bing a bit too noisy.


    “Ah, Mister Knight, we’ve crossed the mountains, right? Is that the western continent below us?”


    “Um, probably.”


    As he answered, Duanmu looked out the window. Before themy a dense primitive forest. Perhaps due to the altitude, the sight was filled with heavy snowfall, and there was snow everywhere on the treetops. In the distance, the outlines of cities could be vaguely seen. Without a doubt, these were the signs of civilization on this continent.


    “What should we do next? Are we going to fly straight over?”


    “No, no need.”


    Duanmu Huai surveyed the surroundings and focused on a vige nearby.


    “We’rending here, then we’ll disguise ourselves as adventurers and head to that vige to gather information about this ce. Extra steps will be decided after we know more.”


    “I get it.”


    After making a decision, Duanmu parked the Bristol nearby and everyone got off. The Night Raven ck Star took off again and disappeared into the sky—it would continue cruising until it receives amand from Duanmu.


    “Ugh…is this the Western Continent?”


    Perhaps because her feet were now on solid ground, Greiya’splexion had improved significantly. Duanmu nodded in confirmation.


    “Yes, ording to the intel, it should be… anyway, let’s head to the vige first and discuss the restter.”


    After this, Duanmu led the girls towards the vige they saw earlier. When they arrived at the vige entrance, they weren’t stopped by the guards. To the guards’ inquiries, Duanmu simply introduced his party as adventurers passing through the area, and that they were looking for a ce to rest since apanion wasn’t feeling well.


    Despite the guards’ initial fear of Duanmu Huai’s appearance, they let everyone in without saying much. Though the innkeeper was uneasy about Duanmu Huai’s presence, her smile appeared instantly at the sight of the gemstones he brought out… From this, it could be seen that money truly is universal.


    Faced with the gemstones, the innkeeper was naturally overjoyed, quickly arranging the best rooms for everyone. From her, Duanmu Huai also gathered some information about the surroundings.


    ording to the innkeeper, this ce was indeed part of an empire, and could be considered a border region. Not only that, this empire seemed to control a vast expanse of territory. Of course, this world also contained demon beasts, dragons, and even ghosts.


    After hearing this information, Ann couldn’t help feeling a bit worried. From what they had seen so far, this country’s territory seemedrger than Manaria. If a war were to break out, it was uncertain what would happen…


    Fortunately, the level of magical civilization here didn’t seem to be as developed as Manaria’s.


    Of course, given that this was a border vige, one could not generalize.


    Soon, a night passed.


    However, when Duanmu Huai woke again, he heard an unfamiliar voice.


    “Master.”


    “Hmm…?”


    Duanmu Huai lifted his head only to see an unfamiliar face staring at him calmly. He nced to his side and saw Ogis sitting at the table next to him, and standing in front of him was….


    “Audrey, what’s the matter?”


    “Soldiers have entered the vige.”


    “Hmm?”


    Upon hearing that, Duanmu Huai instantly became alert.


    “Are theying for us?”


    “I don’t know. They’ve sealed off the vige and aren’t allowing anyone to leave.”


    Duanmu Huai got up and walked to the window to look outside. At this early dawn, he could indeed see many armored soldiers, armed with torches and weapons, standing on both sides of the vige streets, as though they were sealing the vige off.


    What’s going on?


    “Go ask the innkeeper.”


    “Yes.”


    Upon hearing Duanmu Huai’smand, Audrey immediately turned and left. After a moment, the innkeeper, swaying her ample hips, walked over.


    “Ah, esteemed guest…please don’t worry. It’s nothing serious.”


    “What happened?”


    “Well…”


    Faced with Duanmu Huai’s question, the innkeeper seemed a bit hesitant, but she started speaking in a low voice.


    “I’ve heard that the Imperial Army captured the leader of a rebellion, and they n to execute him here. That’s why the vige was sealed off. Please don’t worry, it’s not a big deal. Once the execution is over, the blockade will be lifted. I ask that you all stay in the inn and don’t go out to avoid any trouble. I heard the Imperial General will evene in person… I didn’t expect something like this to happen.”


    Speaking of which, the innkeeper did mention yesterday that there was a military fortress near the vige. It seemed usible that they would execute a criminal here. But judging by their tense expressions… It seems the criminal to be executed is not an ordinary person.


    With that thought, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows.


    “Alright, I understand.”
