Chapter 214: Chapter 206 Is this Mr. Lis’s arrangent?

Feis caravan, inside Lis’s carriage.

Cress and Liz had obediently stayed inside the carriage ever since Lis took them aboard yesterday.

In order not to attract any attention, they were extrely cautious, even when peeking outside through the curtain.

They knew that Liz’s elopent must have driven Viscount Kuka mad, with guards all over the city searching for them.

To avoid being captured, they remained vigilant even while on the carriage, and although Liz jokingly suggested sleeping together, they eventually decided to take turns keeping watch, lest soone sneak onto the carriage while they rested at night.

In the morning, as the carriage left Kuka City with the caravan, they finally exhaled a small sigh of relief. Having not slept well all night, they soon drifted into a groggy sleep.

...

The cabin’s geshan wood furniture emitted a slightly sweet and elegant scent, and it seed as if only the soft breathing of two slumbering girls remained in the quiet carriage.

“Cress, Cress, wake up!”

The sweetly sleeping Cress was shaken awake, her eyes still clouded with confusion.

“What’s wrong, Liz?”

Cress yawned and shook her head before finally coming to her senses.

“The caravan has stopped, and it seems like soone is pursuing us from behind.”

Liz, dressed in light yellow pajamas, stood by the carriage door, carefully lifting a corner of the curtain to look out.

The soundproofing of Lis’s carriage was very good, so Liz and Cress could hardly hear any noise from outside.

Liz, who sensed the carriage stopping in her sleep, woke up imdiately due to her sensitivity and peered out the window, only to see a crowd of people gathering behind the caravan.

Upon hearing this, Cress also climbed down from the bed, her bare white feet standing on the floor of the carriage, looking in the direction Liz pointed out.

As an Extraordinary Professional, her vision was naturally much better than Liz’s.

Although those people were standing at the tail end of the caravan, which was quite distant, Cress could still clearly make out their features and attire.

The caravan’s people were dressed in gray clothing, as for the knights in shining silver armor who were approaching.

Although Cress could clearly see the coat of arms on the knights, it was indeed the Viscount Kuka’s moon grass crest.

Letting the curtain fall back, Cress’s expression beca sowhat grim.

She hadn’t expected that just after leaving Kuka City with the caravan, it wouldn’t be long before Viscount Kuka’s n caught up.

How did they know she and Liz were among the caravan?

There had been no checks when they left the city.

After all, Cress was a self-taught mage and was unaware of the existence of “Seeking Person Skill,” a Prophetic Spell.

Lis did know, so after the caravan set off, he waited for half a day to make sure that no one was following before he left to handle the Nether River mory Stealing Demon matter.

Little did he know, the mage who mastered “Seeking Person Skill,” hired by Viscount Kuka, didn’t arrive until half a day after Lis and the others had left.

In a previous life, the reason Cress and Liz could hide at ho for a week before being discovered when fleeing Kuka City was because Cress’s ho had been protected and concealed by simple spells cast by her parents, which disrupted Mage Xirui’s investigations.

After all, he was just a Silver Level Mage who barely mastered “Seeking Person Skill,” and any interference made it impossible for him to pinpoint Liz’s location.

When Cress and Liz left their ho and fled outward, Xirui was able to detect their location normally, and under his lead, they caught up with the fleeing Cress and Liz, leading to the tragedy that followed.

Now, Cress and Liz were facing the pursuit of Viscount Kuka’s forces once again.

“Liz, don’t make a sound, and be careful,” Cress urged, her face serious after confirming that the people behind the caravan were Viscount Kuka’s n.

He retrieved a black magic wand from the storage ring and instructed Liz to hide behind him.

Liz didn’t say much and obediently climbed onto the bed, sitting with her legs hugged at the corner.

Although Cress hadn’t explained the reason, Liz had guessed why she suddenly beca nervous, biting her lip and silently praying in her heart.

Cress didn’t have ti to care for Liz, her eyes locked through the window on the movents of that group of people.

Mr. Lis seed to be absent, and if it ca to it, Liz’s safety would depend solely on her.

Cress watched nervously as the caravan’s people seed to be communicating with Viscount Kuka’s pursuers.

After a while, Cress suddenly saw the caravan make way, the knights checking the goods on the caravan’s wagons one by one, also sizing up among the caravan’s n as if they were looking for soone.

Were they really looking for Liz?

Cress gripped the magic wand tightly, monitoring the knights’ actions.

When the knights reached the wagon where Cress was before moving on hesitantly and continuing the search, Cress finally let out the breath she had been holding in.

The wagon seed unusual; was this why Mr. Lis had felt confident in leaving?

Before Cress could relax, she saw the knight return with a person who was fuming with anger.

That person seed to be dressed in the attire of a steward from Kuka Castle, but Cress did not recognize him.

The two approached the wagon, the angry steward heading straight for it, reaching out his hand to open the carriage.

Cress naturally saw the man’s action, her body tensed up.

She could not let these people take Liz away, not even over her dead body!

Mr. Lis, where are you?

Without ti to think, Cress lifted her magic wand, channelling magic power, ready to hit that person hard the mont he opened the door.

Whoosh!

The door of the carriage was pulled open from the outside, and just as Cress was about to cast her spell, sothing unexpected happened!

Cress saw a flash along the doorfra of the carriage and suddenly, a blazing red fireball converged in mid-air and smashed towards the steward who had opened the door.

The abruptness of the event caused Cress to involuntarily stop the spell she was gathering in her hands.

Cress saw that the knight standing beside the steward seed to barely react in ti, widening his eyes, trying his best to shield the steward with his shield.

Unfortunately, the knight’s shield only managed to block part of the fireball.

The fireball shattered, sending flas spreading out and splashing onto the steward, igniting him as the fire climbed his body.

The steward scread in agony, collapsing to the ground while rolling desperately, as if trying to extinguish the bone-searing blaze, but how could magic flas be extinguished so easily.

Cress didn’t make a sound, raising her magic wand to deliver another strike.

But after a mont’s hesitation, Cress didn’t act imdiately.

She noticed that though the carriage door was opened, there appeared to be a thin, gray film covering the door.

It seed those outside could not see her and Liz inside.

Was this Mr. Lis’s arrangent?
