Chapter 15: Karp(1/2)

Simon is back from Cap.

"It's true, someone cast that kind of magic. I originally wanted to remove it, but I didn't find the source of the casting. It should be hidden."

"Then you... probably didn't expose yourself?"

"Uh...I don't know this." Simon scratched his head and skull.

"If you say so, you're basically sure you're from the abyss."

The three of them looked at each other.

This was also expected. At the earliest, Alvin guessed that what caused Cap's abnormality was either heaven or hell. It was only these two places.

The forces supported by these two sides have appeared in many places on the mainland. It is already a lucky thing that the Principality of Beshir appeared for the first time.

"It's confirmed, what should we do next?" Matthew asked.

Alvin turned around and quickly spread the map on the table: "It is certain that the other party has at least one demon here, and we are not sure if the other party has discovered us, so the three of us cannot leave Mr. Simon anyway. Otherwise it may be dangerous. And we cannot bring too many people, it is better to have three of us and disguise themselves as caravans."

"We're still going to sneak into Karp?"

"Of course, what are we doing here? In the first step, we have basically confirmed that the devil is doing it. In the second step, we need to determine the specific situation in Kapp and then bring the news back to Miss Yilin."

"If it's just to determine the local situation, why not let Mr. Simon go for another trip? He can go back and forth very easily, without even waiting for Xue Rong." As he said, Matthew looked at Simon.

Alvin also looked at Simon.

"Uh...I don't know exactly what I need to determine." Simon scratched his head.

"Let's go together." George said, "If we just go back like this, what's the point of coming here? And, how do we report to Miss Irelyn? Tell her that all the information was retrieved by Mr. Simon for us?"

After saying this, Matthew could only smile bitterly and walk to the sofa next to him to sit down.

Alvin thought for a while, turned his head and said to Simon, "Mr. Simon, can you hide yourself completely?"

"What are you referring to?" Simon asked.

"I'm talking about you following us quietly and hiding yourself completely, even if we don't feel your existence. In this way, we will act as if you are not with us and fight completely independently. Only when the demons on the other side take action will you help us."

"Of course, that's what happened when we followed Gray before." Simon rattled and laughed: "It seems like yesterday when I think back."

"Is there anything else that threatens us besides the demons?" Matthew asked.

"There are also the magic envoys." As he said, Elvin's lips raised slightly: "I hope there is enough chivalry on the other side. Isn't this the adventure we are looking forward to and the life of knights we are looking forward to? We are going to challenge evil and defeat them! Prove our qualifications as Silver Moon Knights!"

At this moment, Alvin's eyes were filled with fanaticism.

Matthew slowly opened his eyes wide, and George had no expression on his face.

Two soul fires were burning in Simon's eyes.

...

"Young Master, isn't this good? If you have anything to do, how can I explain to the Duke?"

"Do you still need to worry about me with Lord Simon?"

"But... doesn't the other party have a demon? This can only be considered evenly matched."

"Just just have a close match. What my father wants is not a son who can only win under the advantage, right?"

"But……"

"This is something that has been decided, you just need to do what I said."

The next morning, George sent everyone he brought back. Then Matthew used his expertise and began to penetrate various caravans.

After several days of this, Matthew went out early and came back late, and finally finished everything on the third night.

He brought back a businessman in a purple robe with gold rings on his fingers, looking like a nouveau riche.

"Hahahaha, it's rare to meet someone who can be chatted like this. I like Matthew, really!" The businessman named Martin hooked Matthew's shoulder while drinking, and said happily: "If he hadn't been hired by you, I really want to ask him to help me."

Alvin was stunned and quickly asked Matthew in a low voice: "We hired you?"

"Yes, you are the first time you entered the mountain. I am a local. You asked me to help you do things."

"Why do you want to tell such a lie?"

"You'll know when you listen down." Matthew replied in a low voice.

On the other side, Martin, who was already half drunk, said to Alvin: "I heard that you still lack a guide. I am familiar with this road. You can follow me. In this way, I can have two more drinks with my little brother Matthew, hahahaha."

Matthew next to him made a "see" expression at Alvin.

After thinking about it, Alvin replied softly: "Okay."

In this way, they easily mixed into a caravan with a free guide.

...

Two more days later, the snow on the mountain melted completely and turned into a trickle of stream flowing along the pebbly riverbed.

The caravans that had already gathered in Aspar also set out one by one.

Alvin, Matthew, and George rode their horses and followed the caravan in heavy armor. Of course, the thick armor was covered with a thick layer of linen, so that as long as you don't wear a helmet, it would not be too conspicuous.

A large caravan was walking on the mountain road to Cape, and it looked like the whole city was migrating. Especially when the clothes of most people were made of linen, it looked more like refugees.

In the crowd, Martin asked Matthew: "Is there armor under your robe?"

"Yes, it's armor." As he said that, Matthew, who was sitting in the carriage, turned his face sideways, looked at George and Alvin not far away, pointed at George and said, "Did you see it? That's a noble."

"noble?"

"Yes, it's hard to get along with the nobles nowadays. They can't live by relying on the income from their territory, so they thought of coming to do business. It's the first time, I'm inevitably a little worried, so I put on armor and forced me to put it on too. I'm dying."

"Are they afraid of bandits?"

"Probably," Matthew spread his hands.

Martin turned his face and shouted to George: "Hahahaha, don't worry, there are no bandits on this road. Look at us, there are not even guards. Take off all the armor and don't be so timid!"

George silently turned his face away.

Suddenly, the people in the caravan laughed even more happily.

Alvin laughed as well.

George gave them a blank look and said no to turn his face.

It only takes one day to travel, but in fact it is actually a 24-hour journey a day without sleep. It takes nearly three days to walk normally. If you take donkey and horse goods, it will be at least four days.

Along the way, the team was moving like a turtle, making George a little impatient.

But there was no way. After leaving the caravan, they didn't even have a guide.

...

During the day, they walked slowly on the mountain road, and at night, they lit a bonfire on a certain piece of turf.

Businessmen from all over the world danced and sang, and were entertained, but they had such a flavor.

Among them, Alvin also heard someone telling the story of Gray.

"Do you know the Battle of Baicheng? I happened to go to Baicheng to purchase goods at that time, and it was at the scene. That holy light, the sixteen paths, was washed out from the sky."

"Is that holy light cylindrical or conical?"

"Uh...how do I know?"

"Didn't you see it?"

"Well...cylindrical."

"Are you sure? Even if it is a cylindrical shape, one end in the sky, so far, it should look conical, right?"

"This is this! How do I know! I haven't measured it yet!"

The story-telling businessman was so angry that he caused the other businessmen and helpers to laugh.

The light of the bonfire reflects George's face.

After listening quietly for a while, George turned his face and asked, "You were there at that time. Is the Holy Light cylindrical or conical?"

"I don't know." Alvin smiled.

"you do not know?"

"It's normal not to know, isn't it? There was a light covering you. How could you know whether the light was cylindrical or conical? Besides, I didn't have time to pay attention to this kind of thing at that time."

"Then what are you paying attention to?"

"I was just thinking about rushing forward. We are knights and should fight."

After thinking about it, George sighed: "I really envy you. You are so young, you are with the Paladin... No, it should be said that the Lich King is fighting with the Lich King. You are all destined to be knights."

"There are only two of fifteen here. Is this called destiny?" Alvin asked back.

...

The next day, we set off again, and we walked for four days.

During these four days, Alvin carefully stared at everything around him. However, nothing happened.
To be continued...
