After the male protagonist

Although it is not dark now, it is only about an hour before the sun goes down.

Esway saw the gap where there was no attention from spirit beasts and humans, and came out of the basement. After he came out, he looked around and didn't see any creatures paying attention here, so he left quickly.

After taking two steps, he suddenly remembered Keriya's words, turned around and headed east.

Without Kria holding back, Esway's speed was much faster, and the setting sun cast a long shadow in front of him, which continued to extend eastward with his movements.

Several people on the road noticed him, but Esway didn't pay attention, which led to people chasing him constantly, but none of them could catch up to him.

When he reached the edge of the town, Esway's pace slowed down. He looked around and found that the spirit beasts in this place were denser and the people were less, but other than that, there seemed to be no difference.

Before the spirit beast caught up, he ran straight forward and left the town soon.

From the time he decided to leave the town to the time he left the town, it can be said that it was extremely smooth.

It went too smoothly.

But Eswi often went to the palaces of other countries, and his movements were so fast that no one could catch him.

He shook his head, putting the thought behind him.

Eswee ran for a few more miles, and when he saw that the sun was about to set, he stopped and tried to summon his contracted beast.

It was a bit difficult at first, but then his contracted beast appeared in front of him smoothly.

It seems that the inability to summon the contracted beast has something to do with that weird town.

Eswee got on the contracted beast's back and drove it into the air.

He had to make a note of where this place was before leaving here.

For people, this place cannot be found unless you look for it specially, it is like a place isolated from the world.

But for creatures that fly in the sky, it is very easy to think of this place.

Esway flew into the air, and with the afterglow of the sun, he found that the town was not big. He descended a little, trying to find the basement where Keria was hiding now.

He couldn't find it.

Eswe circled a few times in mid-air, remembered the location of the town, and then flew away.

Esway's speed is very fast, and the speed of his contracted beast is not slow. In just one breath, there is already a small spot left.

A few seconds later, a young man riding a flying spirit beast stopped above the small town, looking at the direction Eswe left, thinking that he might be dazzled.

He looked at the town below, then at the direction Eswe left, estimated the speed of himself and the other party, and landed slowly.

This person is Gus.

Gus and Eswee have spent a lot of time together, and he still understands Eswee's character.

Rigid, heartless, but good people.

Gus had previously told Esvi that he would meet at the edge of the Yala Empire. After bidding farewell to Queen Sokia of the Kingdom of Weiss, he headed towards the Yala Empire without stopping.

The speed of the flying spirit beast is more than ten times faster than that of the horse beast. He arrived in the Yala Empire last night.

Because he is not yet a knight, he wasted some energy by getting into the Knights Guild.

In the Knights' Guild, Gus didn't find the mission issued by Esway, thinking they were delayed on the way, and then he vetoed his own idea.

Sokia briefly told him about Keriya's character, and if that was true, Keriya would not be so talkative in her absence.

There is no reason for them to stay on the road... So, it is more likely that Keria and Esvi have already reached the Kappa Empire.

Gass wanted to fly to the Kappa Empire just like that, but he was afraid of missing Keria and the others.

Later, he happened to know the existence of this small town, so he wanted to come to try his luck.

……

Eswe's departure did not cause any ripples in Keriya's heart.

He even felt that his ears were much cleaner.

Keriya can sometimes act impatient, but in fact, he is extremely patient in some things, such as now.

The basement is dim, and the sun can still shine through the gaps during the day, but at night, there is only darkness left here.

Keriya was originally leaning against the corner of the wall, but now he stood up and groped forward on the wall. He couldn't and shouldn't pin his hopes on the number "three days". Who knows if that's true?

Although he can't move freely now, he can try to adapt to his current state.

As long as he gets used to it, he won't be unable to even walk steadily. By then, he will be able to display at least one or two points of his strength, right?

It took several hours for Keriya to get used to it.

During the period, he also heard a noise outside, and he heard a few people talking excitedly.But probably because of the distance, Keriya could only vaguely hear a few words:

"I just came here today..."

"I didn't expect recently..."

"……catch……"

"... ran one... and another..."

After hearing these words, Keria suspected that Eswee might have been caught, and then felt a little impossible, because he believed in Eswee's ability to escape, and those people also said "one escaped".

There may be others in this town who are stuck here like them.

The few people didn't stay on the street for long, and soon their voices could no longer be heard. The outside suddenly became quiet, and Keriya could only hear her own breathing.

In the middle of the night, whether it was because the "drug effect" had passed, or because he had adapted to his current state, Keria felt that he might be able to get out of the basement.

After those people left, only the sound of insects came from outside the street, and the roar of beasts was farther away.

Judging from the sound, there should be no one on the street. Keriya carefully opened a gap and looked out from the gap, and then he got out from the basement.

Now that he was alone, he had to be more careful.

There is no one on the street now, maybe the person who was caught attracted the attention of these people, now should be a good time to leave this town.

Keriya still has some impressions of the town's distribution, and he and Esway have traveled all over the town in the past few days. He knows that the shortest route to leave the town is to go south.

So did he.

Keriya walked more than 100 meters south, then turned around and headed east.

He intuited that the east side was the core of the town.

Keriya is not a curious person, only when it concerns himself, he will have a little curiosity.

Even if Eswe was arrested, Keria would decide whether to save the person depending on the situation. If it was more troublesome, he would probably turn a blind eye.

He went east this time not because he was curious about the captured people, but because he wanted to know why those people wanted to capture him.

It would be too useless to leave without knowing it.

Keriya only saw one or two people along the way, and these people in the town seemed to have given up on chasing him.

He didn't dare to be careless, and the closer he was to the east of the town, the more careful he became.

Just as he was about to reach the low house on the east side, a sound of footsteps came along with the voice.

Keria hid in the darkness, staring at the direction they came from.

They came out of a low house, there were about eleven or twelve of them, among them Keriya heard a rather familiar voice, it was the old ruffian he met a few days ago.

There was still some distance between them and Keriya's hiding place. Keriya couldn't see their appearance clearly, but he could tell that most of them were young people.

The voices of those people were a bit messy, and they were a little far away from him. It wasn't until those people got closer to Keriya that Keriya heard them clearly.

"...I really envy Brother Ang, he caught that man."

"What did you catch? It was tricked, okay?" The person who spoke was very angry, and several people echoed.

"Forget it, next time we can be smarter, and the degree of compatibility is not so easy to pass."

This not-so-comforting remark made everyone calm down. After a while, someone mentioned another matter.

"Old man, didn't you say that Aya and you were old acquaintances? Did you leave this matter to you? Why haven't you caught it yet? And let them run away?"

The old ruffian is only 50 to [-] years old now, far from the age that people call "old man", but he has been in this small town for a long time, and he looks old, so he is called an old man by these people.

This title is not a joke to him, it sounds contemptuous to him.

The old ruffian was upset when he heard this title, but he didn't dare to get angry with these people, so he could only say, "Didn't I already drug him? I guess I'll find it soon."

"Quick? Heh, you can't find the medicine after taking it. You still have the face to say that it's been three days, and the effect of the medicine is probably going to disappear soon." The voice paused, and then said, "One of them ran away. What do you say about this?"

The old ruffian was annoyed and thought to himself, you don't need me to shout when you hear about outsiders, you are more active than me in finding them, and you didn't catch up with the one who ran away?

But facing so many people, he could only make an apologetic smile: "It's all my fault, I made it up to you, so I'm also seeking help from adults?"

Several people said a few more words to him, and then gradually went away.

Probably because they were too involved in the chat, they didn't find Keriya more than ten meters away.

Keria looked at the direction they left, digesting the news from their mouths.

Today, they did catch a person, and the person they caught was not Eswee, Eswee had already run away.

It seems that he wronged the little doctor. He always thought that the child gave him the medicine, but now it seems that the old ruffian did it.

Judging from the relationship between the old ruffian and those people, these people are not all of one mind, but there is an interest relationship between them.

Keriya turned her head to look in the direction they came out from.

After looking at it for a second, I suddenly noticed something was wrong.
