Chapter 369: The Howling Mountains

"What?" the woman frowned when she noticed Lachlan's gaze. "What are you looking at? Do you want to take my food?" Her gaze turned wary as she blinked at him.

For some reason, her actions reminded him of a cat who was scared that someone would steal her food.

"How old are you?" he asked.

"It is rude for a man to ask a woman's age," the woman answered before she started gobbling up her food. "Although, I am certain that I am older than you."

"Then why do you want to go to Wugari?"

"A Blessed Person cannot be trusted," the woman said. "It is bold of you to assume that I will tell you something like that just because you helped me cook my food."

Lachlan was speechless. So, he started eating the demonic rabbit instead. "Can we really eat this?"

"I purified it. I took away the darkness."

"You can do that?"

The woman rolled her eyes in response. "Have you been living under a rock all this time?" she asked.

"You are a sorceress"

"How long must you repeat those words?" She glared at him.

"Help me understand why you decided to help me."

"I did not help you out of goodwill. I helped you because I needed fire."

"You are a sorceress, can't you make fire?"

"Do you think I am a god?" she fired back without batting an eyelid. "If we are that powerful then there is really no reason for you to exist anymore, right?"

What is this woman talking about?

"We would have destroyed the Blessed Families a long time ago if we were that powerful."

Lachlan nodded at her words. He was taught that sorcerers were evil. They worshiped the Dark Lord so they must be killed.

He met sorcerers in the past, but all of them had malice and only wanted money or blood or a person's heart in return. He had never met someone like her before.

While he still had so many questions to ask, he decided to focus on his food instead. He was actually starving as he had depleted his Blessing earlier and needed the food to recuperate.

Not long after, they finished their meal and the woman started asking him about Wugari again.

"So you are on your way to the Rothley Estate?" The woman asked.

The woman was silent for a few seconds.

"We should just walk.'

Lachlan said nothing. He had a feeling that there was more to this woman than what she was showing him.

He was not actually in a hurry to find out her secrets.

For now, his focus was on his recovery.

A month should be enough for him to recover.

Once he has recovered then he would do his best to punish those two people!

......

"That is Howling Mountains?" Elias asked as they arrived at the shore that was just right across the well-known howling Mountains.

They traveled in secret and all of them were wearing their own disguises.

Even Rosalind and Lucas were wearing different faces just to avoid detection.

"That place is dark," Valentin mumbled. "Do you not think so?"

From the shore, they could see the ominous presence of numerous volcanoes that dotted the island's landscape.

Each of the volcanoes bellowed thick plumes of smoke into the sky, making it very hard for them to see the entirety of the island.

Seeing this, Rosalind sighed.

"What is on your mind?" Lucas asked, his tone soft too soft.

"The demons," Rosalind responded. Until now, she could not forget what happened in that room. She had been having nightmares about that demon and could not get some proper sleep on her own.

Lucas said nothing. However, his fingers intertwined with hers, providing a reassuring touch.

She smiled and once again focused her attention on the Howling Mountains. For some reason, she could feel that this place is going to change her forever.
