I went up towards the balloon in less than a minute. My presence there was the first since I went down, which was somehow tempting me to stay for a while and feel the air.
However I wasn't in the mood to do so. In addition to the constant attacks from those defenders around the treasure place, my business with Prino was a pressing matter.
"Prino, can you tell me who these people are attacking us?" I asked once I reached the balloon.
"My princess, these are part of the challenge you have to overcome to get the pond."
His reply was instant like he was telling the truth, which was something unreal right now.
He was a brilliant liar, someone I would use in my plans if he was loyal to me. such a person would be better to be killed if he wasn't loyal. I sighed as I pointed towards him to come near me.
