"We are almost out of the dangerous lands, Master. We just have to be careful for a few more hours, and we will be able to get to a neutral town," Merina said with a hopeful smile as she wiped off the sweat trickling down her temples.
The hellish yet dark red sun was shining brightly in the skies as Asher, and his maid set out again in the morning to continue traveling back to the kingdom through the safest paths Merina could find.
Asher nodded as he took in a deep breath, "Good…I feel like I have been on a damn pilgrimage for the past few days. Who knows what is happening back in our kingdom after I am considered missing for days," Asher was worried that certain people would take advantage of his disappearance. If he had a choice, he would have reached the kingdom earlier.
However, Merina was also equally eager to return since she was anxious and worried about seeing her children again. Those two must be really worried after not seeing her for these days.
