The three of them walked in the forest again. No, to be exact, it was Sierra who led them out. This time they headed to the south, but they didn’t talk too much because the woman was surprisingly fast with her steps.“Are we really leaving those women behind?” Gray protested as he matched the other’s pace.“Yes, there’s nothing we can do. The Mayor will take care of it early in the morning,”Still unsatisfied with it, he asked eagerly once again.“So, when will you tell us the story? How did you kill Lily?”In his side, Leon also stared at her with so much interest in his eyes. The woman slowed her pace and massaged her neck, “Aren’t you guys tired?”“Not at all!” They both answered quickly. Hearing the eager voices, Sierra smirked dangerously, “Ah… I see; it’s good to be young, huh?”Sensing that unusual response, the boys low

“What do you mean?” Gray’s eyes went bigger as he totally confused. “Did she hurt you? When? Why didn’t you tell me?” Leon didn’t answer. A part of him was relief that he could finally let it out, but the other part of him felt guilty because he just spilled his mother’s secret. “Leon!” “What’s with the screaming, Gray?” Both Leon and Gray turned their heads quickly at the source of voice. From her reaction, it looked like Sierra didn’t heard their conversation at all. Leon, with his critical response, answered right away, “It’s nothing, Sierra,” he even added a cheerful laugh, “I just teased him for fun.” The woman narrowed her eyes in a judging manner. “I thought you guys are going to roll on the ground again.” Receiving the signal from his friend, of course, Gray followed along with an awkward smile. “He told me that he’s never going back to his home. Sierra, what should we do?” “Well, I’m going to take him home by myself. G

“It is,” Sierra replied shortly. The historian seemed quite impressed with the woman and he questioned her, “If you said that this is a rare ability, how Lady Sierra knows about this?”Gray could see that Sierra’s lips twitched a little. “I read it on a book,”“I see,” the man wrote a couple of sentences quickly and added, “Then, may I know where to get this book? I have to do read it by myself to write a clear and precise information.”The boys talked almost in the same way after they heard him. “Woah! Gray, that’s so cool!”“I know right! We’re going to be written in the history!”“Quiet, will you?” Sierra annoyedly glared at them. Really, these kids showed no politeness at all, she thought. “S- sorry. Please, go on.”“Anyway, from what I remember, you can obtain it in a village called Silentcoast.”

Before she’s leaving the town, Sierra actually decided to come to see Mayor Charles. However, to her surprise, the old man was already sitting down in Uncle Ten’s inn, sipping a glass of beer.Nobody came here because all the townsfolks still in their mourning period. Uncle Ten saw her came down from the stair and asked, “Lady Sierra, do you want to drink a beer?”“Sure,” she answered casually and then smoothly sat down in the same table as Mayor Charles. While the owner was busy, Sierra opened her mouth first, “So, Mayor Charles, what brings you here?”Mayor Charles laughed lowly and spoke, “Excuse me for being straightforward, but Lady Sierra, I’m a man who marched in countless battles, you- who are you?”The silver hair lady sneered and rolled her eyes lazily, “I thought you’re being straightforward? What’s with the lame question, Charles.”Sierra thought t

“Excuse me, what are you talking about?”Sierra abruptly jumped off from the carriage as she didn’t quite hear the whole conversation. The words that went through her ears were mayor, North Alania, and killed.The woman cleared her throat first before sharing the news excitedly. “In North Alania! The mayor was killed by a young boy! They said that ugh- what was it, stabbed on the heart!”“Who is the killer’s name?” Sierra didn’t realize that her voice already trembling with uneasiness. The woman tried to think and she replied embarrassingly, “I don’t remember it. They said that he’s an orphan. Anyway, he’s going to be executed-““Miss! What are you doing?!”Sierra, in a speed of light, had quickly untied on a horse and jumped unto it. Before she went away, she threw a small bag of coins to the owner, “I’m buying your horse.”Igno
