"Where did you learn a word like that?"
Riley was about to leave Andal’s cave However, he asked Nainiae where she had learned the word that she had just used
"Pardon? If you are asking where I learned it…"
As if she was not sure why Riley was asking such a question, Nainiae tilted her head to the side She paused for a moment and said,
"… I didn’t really learn it How should I say it… It is one of those things that came into my head? Isn’t it a word that was used in the world of your past life, Young Master? Isn’t it used in a situation like this?"
Froht perhaps she didn’t choose the right word Concerned, she asked
"No, it is siainst her will in secret The word she had used was similar to what Riley had said earlier about the abduction However, the problem was that it was Nainiae who said it, not Riley
"Of all things"
Riley thought he would not feel this aard if it was Ian, Sera or anyone else Riley avoided Nainiae’s gaze andis a little…"
"Young Master?"
For so to be preoccupied Nainiae, who had a concerned look on her face, carefullyMaster"
"Ah, I’ else"
"Anyway, you will be going back to the Karuta Desert, right?"
"For noe should"
Instead of the word, he decided to focus on what to do now and nodded
Riley thought of a way
Abduction Today nore and leave a Priestess behind at the desert when she said she wanted to go with the to snatch her and bring her here
‘Since I have already told her off to not follow me because she would be a bother, now I’ll look super uncool, but…’
Riley thought about the divine e that Priesia mentioned last time He pondered if she was supposed to have followed him because of Andal Riley slowly shook his head
‘My source of freeloading is ill I can’t just sit back and watch’
The dragon with red scale as unable to open his eyes due to poison had been referred as such by Riley often However…to Riley, Andal was his only friend in this world
Riley was indebted to Andal He couldn’t just sit back and watch Andal suffer in pain This was the reason why Riley was about toback to the Karuta Desert, Nainiae orking on the isolation barrier to prepare for their return later
"I guessed this onehe drenched the entire desert with the epidemic, but to think he put the teacher in that state… Do you think Ms Priesia will be able to cleanse him?"
Nainiae asked, and in return Riley said,
"You saw her cleansing a handful of sand Fro about it, it see the entire desert at once… She probably was given the title of the Priestess for a good reason"
Riley had heard this before, but he was reh ht about the power possessed by a Priestess
Riley was holding his chin Meanwhile, Nainiae looked like she was done orking on the isolation barrier Riley asked Nainiae,
"Are you ready?"
"Yes Shall we get going now?"
"Yes Let’s go right away"
Riley nodded and responded Nainiae put forth her right hand and opened a portal that connected to the Karuta Desert
"Do you think everyone is still at the sa to ht about Priesia and the others who must be still at the desert as they walked toward the portal
It hen they had walked onward for about three steps after entering the portal; they immediately felt the air that touched their nose and lips was different They both automatically crumpled their faces
"… Uuu"
Nainiae proic to handle the stench She closed the teleportation portal and started to look around the Karuta Desert which was covered in black sand
"Starting with the air, the place is definitely different"
Compared to the mountain where Andal was, the air at the desert that was polluted by the epidemic was insufferable Riley shook his head and looked to place where the portal had just closed He ured that Priesia’s cleansing prayer must not be over yet She looked around the area
"It looks like Priesia and Reitri Merchant Group have already left"
"They sure are diligent to an unnecessary extent"
Riley checked the ground, wondering if there were any carriage tracks left However, it seems the wind had erased all traces of the tracks The sands were only showing their even flatness on the ground
‘I thought abduction would be incredibly easy, yet…’
Riley was facing a probleet of the abduction Not sure about what to do, Riley turned to look at Nainiae while scratching his head
"Nainiae"
"Yes?"
"Can you do it now?"
Riley looked at Nainiae’s right eye and asked Nainiae touched the right side of her face The look on her face indicated she was not certain
"I aht about Priesia
"Try it"
In the process, it seeled up and made him remember the Priestess from his past life Riley crumpled his face, and Nainiae also cru
"Is it not working?"
"No Please wait…"
It seeround her teeth lightly so that Riley wouldn’t notice She relaxed her face and said,
"I think I can"
She took a deep breath and looked at Riley again while gathering strength in her right eye She soon found where Priesia was and turned her head to the side
"It’s that direction It appears to be pretty far too"
"It looks like the eye worked?"
"I know It worked this time"
Nainiae had a question mark on her face She wondered why it worked this time when it hadn’t worked the last time She touched her face around her eye and iic
"Ah, wait"
Feeling Riley’s hand on her shoulder, Nainiae stopped usingwhat this was about, she tilted her head to the side
"We are literally going to abduct her I thought ht pose a problem"
Riley held his chin to think He started to think if it would be all right to show theh teleportation
"If they ask e returned e said ere going to see the doctor, what do we say to them?"
