Chapter 237: Oslo Town

While Eman was visiting the Merciless Clan, Zennie and his companions decided to travel to nearby towns. But, since their carriage had not yet been repaired, they decided to rent another carriage first.

She was again accompanied by her trusted attendant Miss Liz and the valiant member of the Guardian Guild Mr. Rossbert, as well as the other guards.

They arrived in one of the towns surrounding the capital city of the Whitestone Empire, this town was called Oslo Town.

Oslo town is the first town to arrive when starting to travel from the capital city to the South.

When they arrived in the town of Oslo, Zennie immediately noticed the dull atmosphere around them. There were very few people outside. This surprised her.

“There seems to be something strange in this place,” as Zennie looked out of the carriage window and surveyed the surroundings, she couldn’t help but notice the weird ambiance.

Her voice was loud enough for the other companions inside the carriage to hear it.

Rossbert looked up as well. He saw that just as Zennie had said, the silence of this town was remarkable. “Hm, yeah. It looks like something strange is going on here,” Rossbert frowned as he said this. He wiped his mouth before speaking again. “Based on my information from inquiring with the guardian guild, this town is one of the most lively towns surrounding the capital city. Many merchants pass through here, so this town has become the center of trading business of businessmen from various sectors of the south,” he added.

“In that case, it’s possible that something truly happened here,” Zennie suspected.

Zennie also noticed that almost all of the shops around were closed. She couldn’t stop herself from asking if this place was really lively before.

“Why don’t we just ask questions to the people we pass?” Miss Liz’s sudden suggestion.

Zennie suddenly thought. “Right, let’s do that,” she immediately agreed.

So when they saw two people walking on the side of the road, their carriage stopped right in front of them. They immediately asked them about the strange silence of the place.

Before answering their question, however, they first looked at them. It shows in their eyes that they are trying to assess them. But, for a moment they noticed the woman slowly opening her mouth. “Ah, are you newcomers to this place?” Asked the woman wearing an old skirt with floral embroidery. And it was paired with a yellowish-white blouse. Which was covered by a thick jacket. So was the man with her. They were both wearing clothes with thick fabric.

Their attire is only natural because the winter month has already begun.

They guessed that these two were married. Zennie nodded in response to their question.

The two looked at each other before starting to answer their question. In this case, it was the man himself who answered.

“Ah, that’s right. Actually, something bad happened in this area last night. ”

Zennie and the others widened their eyes upon hearing it. “Can you tell me what kind of incident this is?” Zennie asked curiously.

“Last night, the warehouse where the drug supplies were stored caught fire.”

“What?” Zennie frowned at the man’s answer. This news is huge bad news for them.

“Hm, is that the reason for the silence of the place?”

Rossbert himself continued the questioning because Zennie seemed to have lost her appetite to continue. They understood this because the reason they went to this place was because of the medicine itself. So this is bad news for them.

But, Rossbert still doubts that the warehouse burning was the reason for the strange silence of the place.

If he wasn’t mistaken they were right in the center of Oslo Town.

So, the business should have continued no matter what happens to storage. It is impossible that just because of the storage incident all stores will be forced to close.

The man shook his head for a moment. “Honestly, that is not the very reason for the strange silence you notice today. But, I’m not saying that has nothing to do with the current silence.”

“What do you mean?”

“The authorities found out that the storage was deliberately set on fire, based on the evidence found in the area. And not only that, some of the famous merchants in this area are missing till now. That’s why people are so worried. ”

Rossbert was speechless from what he heard.

Because of what they heard, the expressions on everyone’s faces became dull.

Before continuing the journey, they first thanked the two.

But, before they left, they received a warning from them. That if they were planning to travel to the next town it would be good for them to postpone it first.

Rossbert asked for the reason.

“Because there are also reports of merchants being attacked while they are on their way here.”

“Attack? Of bandits? ” Rossbert asked.

The man shook his head.

“Of ferocious monsters...” the man replied.

After talking to the two people on the road, they resumed their journey.

As the horse continued pulling the chariot, the five guards on their respective horses were on their tails. Inside the carriage Zennie, Miss Liz, and Rossbert chatted first.

They need to decide what is better to do. They cannot ignore the warnings of those people. Their intentions are especially good.

But, because they needed to buy more medicine right away, they eventually decided to continue.

They also questioned the five guards who accompanied them on their journey. It’s not Zennie’s habit to just put their thoughts aside.

The place they are going to travel to is a bit dangerous, so everyone has the right to give an opinion.

The guards didn’t even think twice in giving their opinion. They all agreed to move on.

This is not only for their trust in Zennie and the sworn job, but also for the families and relatives they left behind in Rothsport town.

Since they had enough supplies for the trip, Zennie’s group immediately proceeded to the next town.
