Chapter 330
How long had they galloped?
As sunset settled in the sky, Beric frowned, bored from the constant riding. With nothing but dense thickets in sight, he wondered if they were really going the right way. Though none voiced it, they all likely thought the same while watching Noah’s back ahead of them.
Felix, still bound and slung over a horse, showed no signs of waking.
“Say, how much longer-“
Just as the mage was about to ask May, Noah pulled his reins to slow down. They had emerged from the thickets.
Below stretched endless vineyards. Trees lined up in perfect straight lines as if drawn with a ruler. Thick vines hung heavy with luscious grapes in abundant display.
Green leaves stained by sunset. Like a red wave washing in, it dyed portions of the fields.
“This is Clifford.”
Prince Noah’s hair also took on a deeper orange hue as he nodded. Behind him, Clifford’s palace came into view. The tall coral-colored domes caught the sunlight, sparkling beautifully.
