For The Glory Of Sitia Empire

Chapter 30



Chapter 30

As it was planned, the carriage and the five knights Lennox told them to prepare

Were all ready to set off by the dawn, leaving only Everly that did not appear at the sight.

Wearing a slipper and a blanket over his silky nightwear, Lennox stood next to the large carriage looking pissed, he said in an irritated tone: "where is zombi Everly? How come she is late again?".

The umbrella butler answered for behind:" I believe she will be here in no time, your highness ".

Indeed, at that moment, Everlys' figure popped up on the air, seems that she had recovered overnight and now she can hop around as usual. Everly landed lightly in front of Lennox making only a tap sound, she clapped her hands in a prayer shouting: "I am sorry!!!!! But Rachel took too long lecturing me and I couldn't say anything to her. Really I am sorry ".

It was normal for Rachel to act overly protective, after all, Everly has been passing out or getting hurt since the very first day she came to the palace. And now that she is going somewhere obviously dangerous, it would be a miracle if she won't be beaten to a plob.

Hearing that, Lennox sighed, deciding not to drag this topic any further, He turned to the knights' team leader asking:" how long will it take to go from Zahani to Yusfin, kai?".

Normally, there is a crystal gate at every city for a faster and safer journey, however, they are quite expensive thus they are rarely used by the commoners. And since they can't teleport by crystal gates directly to Yusfin city, Lennox and the others had to go to a closer city first, then use the usual way to reach Yusfin.

A young man with soft features, his face more like womans' than a mans' face, if not for his flat chest anyone would think he is a woman. Kai answered:" half-day at most, your highness ".

Lennox:" very well, once we reach there, set up a camp somewhere not far nor close to the city walls, then take a break and rest until I wake up. Make sure no one gets close to the mist, especially that blockhead girl".

While Lennox was busy giving instructions, Everly went ahead to enter the carriage, since she can't help with it anyway. Seeing her heading to take her seat, the umbrella butler rushed before her and politely opened the door.

However, Everly just stood in her place staring at the insides of the carriage confused.

Lennox finished instructing the knights and went take his place, seeing Everly blocking his way, Lennox pinched her arm saying: "come on, get inside already ".

With a tear hanging at the corner of her eyes from that painful pinch, Everly whined:" but there is nowhere to sit".

Indeed, the carriage had no seats, instead, it was filled with cushions, futons and pillows covering a Bed mattress under them.

Lennox looked dazed when saying:" huh? This is not for sitting, it's for sleeping, idiot ".

Everly:" why would you sleep all the way? It won't even take that long, we can watch the sceneries".

Lennox:" like I give a shit about that, I need twelve hours of sleep daily, or I will die".

Everly pouted: "you are a lazy dog, that's all".

Veins popped on Lennox's forehead, he said clenching his teeth:" want to fight you dumbass monkey ".

Everly clicked her tongue:" tsk, I will just ride the horse with the pretty mister ".

She threw that and hopped away towards Kai.

While Lennox rolled his eyes, then dashed into the carriage, shutting the door with a bang.

*****

After exiting Zahani city, the sceneries that could be seen were mostly dried lands and rocks, all looking the same, making Everly fall deep in depression.

' if I knew it will only be dead earth I might have slept inside with Lennox '

After hours of regretting her decision, Everly and her group finally caught the sight of Yusfin city, although all they could see was a big red cloud, it was obvious that they had reached their destination.

As Lennox commanded, the group camped half a mile away from the walls, and as a team leader, Kai made sure that everyone stayed at a fifty meters radius, then he made a long ass list of the prohibited acts for Everly, which was basically everything.

Since breathing is the only allowed thing to do, Everly thought that she might as well take a nap with Lennox, the dusk was still three hours far after all.

She soundlessly crawled into Lennoxs' blanket, at first she wanted to keep some space between them since the carriage was quite spacious. However, the sight of Lennoxs' badly frown face, as if was having a nightmare, wasn't something Everly could just ignore.

She slowly closed the distance between them, too close that every time she blinks her eyelashes would brush on Lennoxs' skin, in a low voice Everly hummed a lullaby, holding one of his hands tightly. And in no time, she also fell in deep slumber.

Gradually the sun disappeared behind the horizon, and the knights had to prepare the dinner. With some luck, they managed to find a withered tree to set up the fire, the scarlet flames danced under the large boiling pot, and the mouthwatering smell of Kais' golden chicken soup filled the air.

A muscular middle-aged knight heard Kai mumbling for himself: "will this much be enough?".

" why not? To me, this much is enough to feed a starving elephant, hahaha".

Kai startled a little:" ah, Sir Michael".

Michael: "why are you worrying about such travail thing?".

Kai rubbed his temple, saying with a faint smile: "well, the thing is that my sister works as a maid in the palace, she told me that the crown prince eats a lot, so I was just wondering what can be considered enough for him".

Michael:" rest assured, how much can a ten years old child eat".

Kai sighed: "you are right ".

A knight who was originally busy cleaning his sword butted in their conversation:" but damn, for real. Are you sure you are not a woman?".

Veins popped on Kais' forehead, she barked: "HUH?!!! Do you wish to die!!".

Michael:" come on Sandro, don't tease him. He is the team leader, at least give him some face".

Sandro returned the sword to its scabbard saying:" hey, I am serious. I mean he would make a perfect housewife for sure, let aside, he is prettier than half of the women I saw in my life".

At that moment, the other two knights who were patrolling returned to the camp, one of them asked jokingly:" what's there, are you harassing our maiden Kai?".

Kai: "WHO ARE YOU CALLING A MAIDEN?".

Sandro completely ignored Kai and headed with his question:" hey, Ethan, Noah. You two are from the same campus as Kai, right? Did you see him bath before? Does he really have something in his pants?".

Kais' face turned completely red out of embarrassment, but Ethan had no mercy for him, he said: "ohoooo, he does, he does. But you will need a telescope to see it, hahahaha".

Noah:" how long was it? Yeah two inches, hahahaha".

The three of them busted in laughter, while Michael was trying his best not to laugh, Kai was already steaming, red like a cherry.

And in the middle of this mess, the carriage door suddenly slammed open with a loud bang.
