As I petted Liliana's head and read my book, I noticed the carriage slowing down gradually.
"It seems we've arrived," said Sophia, closing her book with a soft snap.
Looking out from the carriage window, I saw the paved road made by the Korvt tribe end, leading to a dirt path that wound its way toward a small, mountainous village.
It seemed we had arrived near the fortress where the escaped goblins had been sighted.
—The journey thus far had been a leisurely one.
Inside the carriage, I passed the time reading or learning spells from Sophia. The ride was so smooth that I didn't get motion sickness from reading, and thanks to Sophia's lessons, I'd finally mastered soundproof barriers.
'Now you can whisper secrets or do scandalous things to your heart's content,' teased Anthe.
Stop calling it "scandalous." Though, the soundproof barrier will definitely be useful in the future.
