"Gagarin, how far are we from the academy now?"
"Lord Lucien, at our current pace, we should arrive in no more than three days," Gagarin replied respectfully after glancing at the map.
"Hmm, good." Lucien nodded, then poked his head out of the carriage to look at the road ahead.
"I thought we might encounter some trouble along the way," Lucien muttered under his breath. He had actually been on alert for a possible attack from Wizard Heli these past few days, but so far, what he had feared had not come to pass.
"It seems they've realized that direct methods are futile and have given up struggling?" Lucien frowned slightly, then slowly shook his head.
In these days, he had deliberately dawdled on the journey, also waiting for some countermeasures from Wizard Heli. It would have been best to kill Wizard Heli outside the academy; that would lessen his own troubles later on.
