Chapter 234: THE BLIND FATE
Iris had another dream about the five swords, but this time, she saw a person in the distance, yet before she could look at them clearly, she was woken up because Cane shook her shoulder lightly.
Her surroundings were still so dark, it was still night, but they were in the outskirts of the capital city. There were rarely houses along this street. People here didn’t attend the party in the palace, because they didn’t have decent enough dresses and clothes to wear. They were so poor, as if this was the abandoned part of the capital city.
Cane jumped down from the horse before he helped Iris to get down as well, he took her hand, as they walked.
But knowing him, it was not clear whether he did this because he didn’t want her to get lost and run into trouble, or for the sake of himself, because he was worried that the black wisp would suddenly appear without him knowing it.
Iris didn’t think Cane was someone that would do something unnecessary, thus the latter option seemed to be most likely.
She looked around her, but the hoodie that covered half of her face obstructed her vision considerably, yet the moment she was about to pull it back slightly, Cane stopped her by placing his hand on her head again. She was sure that he said something, but she couldn’t hear it.
In the end, the only thing she could see was the ground beneath her feet.
"Is he here?" Cane asked Leros, who was standing in front of a rickety house.
"Yes, he is inside with Clad." Leros nodded.
