Olga returned to the convoy and came to the side of Romuona and Lulunaka.
"Everyone has been buried."
At this time, Lulunaka leaned forward and reached out to play with the horse's tail.
These horses, which were originally the mounts of the knights, were not very docile, but at this time, they were surprisingly quiet.
These spiritual animals already knew who was their master here.
Hearing Olga's words, Lulunaka let go of the horse's tail and jumped down from the carriage.
"How efficient. I thought it would drag on for a longer time.
Letting two Silver-ranked warriors do this kind of work, although it's fast, it's a bit of a waste of talent. "
Lulunaka stretched her body, her nose twitched, and took a big breath of air, "The smell of blood in the air has been diluted.
When the next gust of wind blows, probably no one will know what happened here. "
Olga was silent.
Just like what Lulunaka said, what happened here, the people who died here, were already buried under the ground.
The only people who knew all of this were those who were still alive, and those who were far away in the south, behind the dark curtain.
If Lulunaka did not lie, then the people behind the scenes probably already regarded Romuona as a dead person.
No one knew if she was alive, and no corpse if she was dead. Only a name was buried.
For Romuona and Olga now, this was enough.
Olga looked at Romuona, "Miss Romuona."
Romuona also looked at Olga, "I'm no longer a miss, Olga.
There's no longer a noble Romuona here, only a commoner Romuona. It's just that the name is the same. "
Olga sighed, "That's good, that's good …" He knew that Romuona no longer had the surname Mullenin.
As for Olga, after such a thing happened, he did not intend to continue to work for the Mullenin Family.
Moreover, he did not come to Romuona to work for the Mullenin Family.
Olga also did not have any plans to leave Romuona. For a warrior like him, there was a better way out than to accompany a girl who had become a loner. Just now, Romuona wanted to persuade Olga to leave, but Olga refused.
He was already old, he no longer had the motivation to pursue fame and fortune, even the desire to become stronger was slowly disappearing. Otherwise, he would not appear by Romuona's side as an unknown old guard, and this happened to save Romuona's life.
Without his perseverance and strength as a Silver-rank, Romuona would have been killed or forced to her death.
He was old, there were some things that he had let go of, but there were some things that he could not let go of.
Romuona was one of the things that he could not let go of.
"Olga, do you still remember my nickname?"
Romuona smiled at Olga, "Before my mother died, before I came to the Mullenin Family, my nickname … do you still remember?"
Hearing this, Olga's heart gave birth to a lot of emotions, as well as feelings of nostalgia.
"Of course I still remember, how could I forget … Ouna."
Hearing Olga mention her nickname, Romuona's smile became more colorful, and she did not look as sad as before. "It sounds much more comfortable than being called a noble lady."
Romuona continued, "Olga, where should we go from now on?"
This question was not raised by Romuona just now. Before they started to clean up the scene, when Lulunaka went to talk to Julius, she and Olga were already discussing this question.
But because this was not a good place for a long conversation, the two of them only talked briefly, and then Olga went to clean up the corpses.
In this place where corpses were everywhere, it was indeed not a suitable place for a conversation.
Now, the scene had been cleaned up, except for the bloodstains and the smell of blood, there was nothing else to prove what had happened here. Romuona felt that they could continue the topic just now.
Because she knew that Olga would never leave her, Romuona no longer mentioned the matter of letting Olga leave.
"There is no need to continue to go west."
Olga said, "The marriage is just a cover, this murder plot is the ending they prepared for you, there will be no more drama."
"But I can't go back to the King's Castle."
Romuona continued Olga's words, "I don't have any relatives to rely on, even if I do, I don't believe them … I only believe in you."
Olga was still holding the shovel in his hand, he put the shovel on the ground, both hands on the end of the wooden handle, looking like he was thinking, "I also don't have any relatives, I have been a wanderer for decades, I came to the King's Castle when I was old, and I met you and your mother."
Speaking of Romuona and her mother, Olga didn't plan to talk about it in detail, it was not a precious memory that could be casually mentioned.
He shook his head and sighed, "If I had known, I would have stopped you from going to the Mullenin Family, to go back to that so-called father's side.
In this world, there is actually a person who would offer his own daughter as a sacrifice … "
At this time, Lulunaka probably breathed enough of the fresh air that she said, her attention was on Romuona, and she just happened to hear the last part of Olga's words.
"Sacrifice?
Are you talking about Romuona?
There was nothing to be angry about, the existence of nobles, wasn't it like this?
If sacrificing children could make the family prosper, there would always be people who would be willing to do so, let alone sacrificing their own children who were about to reach adulthood.
I think Romuona's father probably thought this way. "
Lulunaka said, and came to Olga's side, "But I think that if a noble could do that, rather than discussing whether this kind of behavior is inhumane, I am more interested in the motive behind it.
Is it because there is no way out, and they can only take a gamble, or for the so-called mission, they are willing to sacrifice everything? "
Speaking of this, Lulunaka saw that Olga's face didn't look very good, she waved her hand and apologized, "I'm sorry, I don't want to say good things about the mastermind behind the scenes, I'm just a little curious."
Lulunaka's tone was very respectful, when she talked about nobles, she didn't show any ridicule or disgust, but the words she said didn't have any respect for nobles, it was as if she was talking about nobles with a faint smile.
Olga had never been surrounded by nobles, he only had respect for those who really had power.
If the other party's character was bad, then even if the person was stronger than him, he would not have the slightest respect for that person.
Lulunaka's words didn't make Olga feel any disgust, and judging from Lulunaka's unfathomable performance, she was qualified to comment on those so-called nobles, but Olga didn't agree with Lulunaka.
Lulunaka continued, "Since the two of you haven't found a good place to go, would you like to follow me first?
Since I've already reached out to help, I think it's better to help you to the end. "
Lulunaka's words startled Olga, and Romuona's gloomy face changed a little.
"Alchemist, what are you trying to do?" Olga asked.
"Master Olga, I'm a little hurt by your words.
If I had any intentions, I would have done it long ago, why should I say it now? "Lulunaka looked a little unhappy, but no one believed that she was showing her true feelings now.
Olga couldn't and didn't dare to guess what the alchemist girl was thinking. If his judgment was wrong, he might end up like those church knights.
But for Romuona, even if he had to risk his life, he had to figure out what Lulunaka was thinking.
Lulunaka continued, "Now it's unrealistic and unnecessary for you to go west. If you go south back to the King's Castle, you definitely won't choose it. As for going north, there's even less need to consider it — unless you want to be a wyvern's snack.
So I suggest you follow me to the east, to the seaside, to settle down with my acquaintances for the time being, and then think about what to do in the future. "
At this point, Lulunaka spread out her hands, "Of course, if you don't want to follow me, you can say goodbye here, and we'll meet again if fate wills it. But there are two people who will definitely follow me."
Lulunaka looked at the back of the caravan.
At the very end of the caravan, Padding was already tidying up the carriage and pacifying the horses, while Julius seemed to still be wary of Padding, keeping a distance from him, and pretended to be watching from the side of another carriage.
"Mr. Edgar is already my employee, and as for the brave young man Julius, I bought him with a sword. Now he's just an errand boy, right?
I can't let those two go, especially Julius. "
No one knew why Lulunaka emphasized Julius, but when Romuona heard her say so, there were some ripples in her heart.
She didn't know what it was, but she was already taking action.
Romuona said, "Can I rely on you?
Lulunaka. "
Hearing Romuona's words, Olga turned around and looked at her, "Ouna, is this okay?"
Romuona didn't answer immediately. After a while, she shook her head, "What do I have to worry and be afraid of?
Besides, Lulunaka and I are friends, is it fake? "Romuona's last words were directed at Lulunaka.
Lulunaka's face showed a bright smile, "This friendship is definitely not fake, Romuona."
