Episode 960: Into the Villa

I had to leave, and where everyone spanned on the back of the horse, Azio said toward Chester.

"To the villa, more or less... is that about two hours?

Then Shester shook her head lightly to the side.

"No, I'm not going straight. It's hard to notice anyone following you because there are so many people traveling through town. Once I left town and went into the mountains, I decided to take a detour to the villa."

Then Azio looked convinced and nodded.

"I see - if you do have a watchman or something left, you'll be tailed and they'll know where the villa is, right?

"Oh, if the enemy were the Pope, I'd probably already know that the former Archbishop of Fran had a villa in Almento."

"... right. But the villa didn't even know Miss Elba existed, did it? Then maybe the Pope hasn't figured it out yet either... then it took a little while, haven't you ever gone beyond caution?

Then Shester smiled niggly.

"That's the thing. Then we're leaving."

Shester said or kicked the horse belly lightly, then roughly went around the horse's neck and advanced in the opposite direction.

Then I saw how it was and everyone got a decent look.

And it came to pass, that Azio, while he was niggardly, beckoned and caught several men, and told them this.

"It's a tail job. Once we get into the mountains, we'll see if there's a tail. Then follow the detour route in the mountains to the villa...... so. So keep me posted."

Then the men looked convinced, as did Azio earlier, and each ran to kick their horse bellies and tell the others.

Azio dropped it off and lined up right next to Shester with his horse.

"I asked him to tell you back there. But then... Is it going to take three and a half hours?

"Right. I guess that's about it if there's nothing."

"By the way...... sounds a lot tired, did you still use too much magic in earlier fights?

Then Shester grinned lightly up the edge of her mouth.

"No, I slept a little for once, but I didn't get much proper sleep. I think I'm getting tired."

"Oh, that happens sometimes. That fatigue will attack you more and more as you wake up when you fail to get a proper sleep. So it was a break in the corner, and it was a waste, huh?

Then Shester shrugged her shoulders gently and smiled bitterly, trying to leak her breath all the time.
