Chapter 245: King of the Dead Subjugation — Interlude (2)
The carriage that had been running all night stopped at a nearby village. It was scheduled to be briefly serviced in the village before departing again. Upon waking up, I saw Alice Carroll looking down at me, just as she had before I fell asleep. I realized she had not been able to sleep because of me.
I got out of the carriage. The coachman left first to take a break, and Alice and I got off the carriage.
For some reason, Alice took out a thin coat and wrapped it around her waist.
She leaned on the carriage, bent over slightly, and took a deep breath.
“What's wrong?”
"Nothing... I just feel a bit weak. I'll stay here and rest."
Alice lifted her head and forced a smile.
She seemed to have difficulty walking.
Maybe her legs were numb. It seemed the blood circulation in her thighs wasn't good because I had been using her as a lap pillow continuously.
