The journey to the west started. It would be a long ride before Alex and Jhin arrived at the location, but with the help of mounts, the time spent on the road would be much less.
"Gareth said the place isn't far, right?" Alex asked.
Jhin chuckled, "He said that to you? Maybe that was his way of not making you give up. It will take us around three days to get there. We will even have to pass through a big city on the way."
"What?"
Gareth had said to Alex that the mission wasn't far, yet apparently, that was not the case. He trusted Gareth more than Jhin—he had just met the guy—but there was no reason for him to lie about that.
"Yes, he tricked you, but hey, Gareth meant it well. He just wishes you to go on a journey to develop yourself. We can even take longer if you want to check some places."
