Chapter 125: Planting the Seeds 3
"How could someone be so cruel!?" Rosie stood in front of the lieutenant. "I did not expect that someone would attempt to kill the captain just as we arrived. To think that such a young man would have enemies " her eyes were teary as she lowered her head.
"We have been doing our best to investigate the matter. However, we would like to thank the Young Miss for helping the captain. We wish that we had even more gold to give the Young Miss but"
"I did not do it for the gold," Rosie smiled. "In fact, here please take it back," Rosie told one of her maids to hand over the gold that the soldiers had given her while she was sleeping. "I need no such thing."
"But "
"I can only hope that the captain will recover soon."
"Young Miss "
"Again, I did not do it for the money. I did it because I wanted to help."
With that, Rosie boarded hercarriage and sat down. Soon enough, the carriages started moving and the group were finally outside the borders of the Aster Empire.
Rosalind immediately patted her chest, beaming. She was currently alone in the carriage. In fact, she had not seen the Duke since she woke up earlier. The man had been grumpy since they arrive at the post, and it only intensified when she insisted on healing the young captain.
Then, after she performed the treatment, the Duke vanished. The Count informed her that the Duke left for some important business. She wanted to know what it was but chose not to ask questions.
"I am finally out of the Empire," she could not stop herself from chuckling. Finally! It was surreal, but this was just the start of everything.
Now that she was far away from the Lux Family, she could do whatever she wanted. And just like that, their long and tedious journey toward the North started. Rosalind chose to spend her time mostly in the carriage, reading books and waiting for the Duke to reappear.
"Young Madam," there was a knock in the carriage, and a young maid walk in. "The Count told everyone to be prepared for the temperature tonight. It is going to be very cold. I have prepared some blankets that the Duke wanted you to have. It is made from a demonic bear." The woman put a stack of black and white furs on the seat opposite her.
"Thank you." Since Rosalind grew up away from the snow, she was not used to this very low temperature. Luckily, it seemed that the Duke had prepared everything for her; from her clothes, to the heating inside the carriage, and now the blankets. Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
Because of the snow, everyone had decided to stay in the carriages and just put the tents up next to the carriage to keep in the heat. She was informed that this was normal because camping away from the carriages could be very dangerous; not just because of the temperature, but also because of the demonic beasts.
"That last time"
"What is it?"
"The curse that has started from the south. The one from the slaves."
"Oh?" Did the plague start to spread already?
"It seems that your warning was right. Most of the people who interacted with the prisoners have caught the curse. It has started to spread in the Capital."
"And?"
"And it seems that Federico Lux wanted to stop the news from spreading. The palace just sent their people out today. They wanted to close down the prison and kill everyone who was infected by the curse."
Rosalind said nothing. Right. That sounded like something Federico would do. She observed Mr. Pratt, it seemed that the man had become older since the last time they had met. It must be because of this problem. Mr. Pratt was a businessman, he understood the repercussions of this problem.
"But you did not come here to hear me complain," Mr. Pratt laughed awkwardly. "We should leave, the princess and the Duke are waiting for you."
Rosalind nodded. She sounded selfish, but this time, she is not going to intervene with the curse. At first, she wanted to help the people and earn money, but she could still remember the Duke's warnings. He did not want her to intervene in this matter.
Rosalind followed Pratt and the two of them teleported into an unfamiliar place. This time, she immediately spotted the skinny, pale princess upon her arrival.
It seems that the woman had suffered enough, she thought inwardly. In this situation, Rosalind did not feel any guilt at all. First and foremost, she told the Princess to leave that place when the fight started, but instead of leaving, she actually marched towards the beast thinking that her sword would be able to scratch it.
She warned Princess Isabel, yet, the princess did not listen. It was only right that she suffered from the consequences of her actions.
"Miss Lin " it was the Duke who spoke. He gestured for his attendant to help him up. Once he was standing he gave Rosalind a low bow. "Please heal my child. Take her pain away. I will do anything. Just heal my only daughter!"
