"Hegress, you said that it took you 3 months to come here?" Vesper asked
"3 months, it is by the fastest route i know, but also the most dangerous" Hegress replied with a grim look on his face.
Vesper said with a smile "Stop making that face Hegress I know a way where we can go to the City of Downfall in 1 day"
"Only in 1 day? Impossible!" Hegress replied with a shock as he looked at Vesper with a doubt. It took him three months to come here and not to mention, he took the shortest path only he, as the City mayor knows. Although it is the fastest, It is also the most dangerous route one can take.
That's why he is so shocked when Vesper said he knows a way where they can travel to the City of Downfall in a Day.
If he had such a convenient method, what was the point of him going here?
"Just follow me, besides i need you to open the barriers and the Gate. If we come there without your gracious presence we might get shot to death" Vesper said
Hegress couldn't help but sigh, 'These two peo-' However before he could finish his thoughts he suddenly realized something.
He couldn't sense the presence of Vesper's servant at all!
Even if he was here standing in front of him, he couldn't detect even a trace of his aura nor his breath.
'An Expert! A peerless Expert! So that's why Vesper is so confident going to the city of downfall' He exclaimed on this shocking discovery.
He calculated that Vesper alone can kill him very easily, as for his servant? It's almost Ten times stronger or even more.
Thinking of this, Hegress breathes out a sigh of relief,
Even if Vesper's method failed, they can still take the shortest route, This time however, there were two 2 experts accompanying him.
Going back to the City of Downfall in a month and a half is not impossible, it might only even take a month if they didn't rest.
Hegress couldn't help but look at the two, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"Young master, can we trust that man?" Thermes asked Vesper
"I don't know, but he is the only person who can help us enter the city" Vesper shook his head and replied calmly.
"I understand" Thermes, knew that he had no choice but to protect his Young Master no matter what.
"Young Master, keep your guard up and always stay by my side" Thermes reminded.
"Yes yes, as if you can protect me anyway"
Vesper doubts that this frail looking servant can protect him if trouble arises, but no matter what, as his master he needs to take care of his subordinate.
'Still, what a troublesome system, instead of making my life easy, I need to save it? Whose serving who'
Vesper sighed internally, and hoped that this trip to save his golden finger, The System is definitely worth it.
Otherwise...
