Chapter 695 Confession
It is normal to be attacked by wild animals when walking in the wild.
But after this battle, Luke also guessed it.
This team is escorting the herbalist.
In other words, herbalist is just a title.
The real escort was the woman.
The true identity must be not simple.
During last night's attack, Luke was just a bystander throughout.
It's just a superficial thing.
Actually, it is to help Wanda enchant.
The bow he gave Wanda didn't need arrows.
The arrows are the chaos magic condensed by Wanda.
It is a physical killing.
Real warlocks kill with magic.
And the warlock here is not the magician in the game.
The warlock casts spells entirely through bloodline, without the need for any medium at all.
Many warlocks have their own medium for casting spells.
There are all kinds of tools.
Of course, the most common ones are still cold weapons in combat.
On the contrary, there are not many people who use magic wands.
These are the information Luke obtained from the Warlock Guild in Ami City.
So, he made Wanda a bow.
They are all long-range attacks. As long as he is by Wanda's side, he can quietly add fire power to Wanda's chaos magic.
This is the simplest one.
In the morning, as Luke was starting to make breakfast, Edwin and the herbalist came over.
"Sorry to bother you for a moment."
Luke looked at the two of them and knew they were here to find Wanda.
After all, as a warlock, Wanda has a very high status.
Luke came to the carriage and knocked on it.
"Ms. Maximoff, Mr. Edwin is here to see you."
Wanda adjusted her robe, put on her hood, and got out of the car.
"what's up?"
Edwin gave Wanda a chest-touching salute.
"I'm sorry, I hid something when we talked about forming a team together."
The herbalist also spoke up:
"Please don't blame Captain Edwin. I asked them to keep the secret."
"I am the third princess of Jeroboam, Steinbeck Julia."
Wanda had no idea what was going on here, so she had no expression on her face.
Luke has everything under control, is powerful, and doesn't worry about anything.
So neither of them looked surprised.
Seeing that the two were very calm, Princess Julia continued:
"I asked Edwin to escort me to the United Kingdom of Teal."
The city of Tatu belongs to the United Kingdom of Tyr.
The country of Jeroboni is the country to which the city of Ami, which they had just left, belongs.
Then the princess explained the reason.
Her royal brother wanted to marry her to a prince from another country.
A typical political marriage.
But the princess did not want to leave her country.
The emperor's brother is her rival for the throne.
But no one expected that his royal brother would be so cruel.
When the princess was on a blind date with the prince of that country, he killed them.
The princess was also hunted down by people sent by her brother.
Until the princess fled to the border city.
"It happened suddenly, and I was not prepared at all. Luckily, Edwin was introduced by my teacher. I can only go to a neighboring country to find a safe place and wait for my teacher to send someone."
Luke thought about it and thought that it was probably because the communication in this dimension was relatively backward.
In this medieval age, it is indeed difficult to communicate in a timely manner.
Seeing that the princess didn't seem to be lying, Luke temporarily accepted her statement.
Edwin then spoke up:
"The closer you get to the border, the more likely it is to be dangerous. If you two don't want to get into any trouble, you can leave at any time."
After saying that, the two looked at Wanda with hopeful eyes.
But most of Wanda's face was hidden under the hood.
To outsiders, only her chin could be seen.
But from Wanda's angle, she could only see their lower bodies...
This is very embarrassing.
Actually, wearing a hood to hide your face looks cool, but it's easy to bump into something when walking...
Wanda continued to be aloof and just said to the two:
"Let Butler Dutton arrange it. I don't care. It won't matter how many people come."
This is a bit domineering.
But Wanda is playing a powerful warlock perfectly.
Anyway, Luke has the backing...
Luke smiled and said:
"Since Ms. Maximov has no objection, let's continue walking together."
Edwin and Julia breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Luke and the others agreed.
The two expressed their gratitude to Luke and Wanda, and said that they would be rewarded when they reached their destination.
Indeed, having a warlock as a bodyguard gave Edwin a boost of confidence.
Although Wanda is cold and aloof, she is very powerful.
Last night, Wanda was the one who dealt with most of the hyena attacks.
The bow Luke made for Wanda is gorgeous.
It’s Wanda’s favorite red.
I don't know what metal Luke used, but it looks very nice anyway.
Last night, Wanda stood on the top of the carriage, shooting every shot accurately, like a god.
The magic arrows, carrying flames, killed most of the hyenas.
In fact, the hyenas were going to continue their attack.
Luke secretly released a powerful aura and scared the hyenas away.
At that moment, no one except Wanda felt it.
The animals were quite sensitive, and when they sensed Luke's presence, they immediately became timid.
The battle didn't last long, but Edwin's team was a little nervous.
After breakfast, the group became noticeably more enthusiastic.
But Wanda still hid in the carriage, maintaining her cool personality.
All the dealings were left to Luke.
She was in the carriage and could also hear their conversation through electronic devices.
After walking for two more days, a group of cavalry suddenly came on the road.
The team immediately became nervous.
When the person came closer, they found out that he was a Paladin of the Vatican.
This group of people were dressed in silver plate armor and were in uniform.
Edwin asked his men to make way for part of the road.
The knights came closer and questioned Edwin.
"Adventurer, have you seen two outsiders, a man and a woman?"
A man and a woman, two outsiders?
Edwin didn't think Luke and Wanda were outsiders.
Their localization is very authentic.
So he shook his head and said to the leading knight:
"No, we are a team of adventurers going from Ami City to Tatu City for rest."
The knight looked around and saw two carriages, with a man and a woman.
"Are these all from your team?"
Edwin nodded.
"Yes, we are all here. We are Team Aegis."
Seeing nothing unusual, the knight urged his horse on and led the other knights away.
After the knight left, the team continued to move forward.
But everyone has some doubts.
Why did the church look for two outsiders?
Coincidentally, Wanda and Luke are also a pair of man and woman.
Although everyone had doubts in their hearts, they didn't think too much about it.
The feature of one man and one woman is too common.
It's possible that they were a couple, brother and sister, etc., but a warlock and her housekeeper...not likely.
The church and the Warlock Guild do not interfere with each other and it is impossible for them to do anything against the warlocks.
