A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 4] Chapter 73
[Vol. 4] Chapter 73: Catch and Fine
Apart from fresh blood, there were also some limbs and casually discarded corpses. The shadow just seen was, in fact, these corpses…
This made the coachman hesitate and stop, unsure whether to continue forward. It wasn’t just the coachman who saw it, Ifia saw it clearly as well.
This made her involuntarily gasp, not expecting to witness such a thrilling scene just upon arriving in the Camus territory!
Was this a gang fight???
Although it looked a bit scary, thinking about the person sitting beside her, Ifia was fine!
Amelia, who even scared special creatures, was very strong and not afraid of these guys who may be friends or foes.
At this moment, a hand reached from behind and covered Ifia’s eyes. The curtain of the carriage also fell, blocking the outside view.
Immediately, warm breath brushed against her ear, accompanied by a bit of concern, saying, “Don’t look, be careful of nightmares at night.”
“I won’t!”
Feeling underestimated by Amelia!
To show her bravery, Ifia raised her hand to remove the hand covering her eyes. Finally, she dared to shift her attention away from the window, turning to look at Amelia.
Unlike Ifia, who was fully armed and round, Amelia was just wearing a thin coat. Under the coat was a tight-fitting black dress, revealing her graceful curves. As always, attention-grabbing.
So beautiful yet lacking in warmth, it should have been freezing, but it felt like a furnace to the touch. In this regard, Ifia couldn’t help but envy Amelia, feeling that heaven favored her too much!
Clearly just a human, yet she could easily regulate temperature. Amelia’s explanation was simply that it only required exercising the body and practicing martial skills to achieve this effortlessly…
This made Ifia silently wish that she could do the same. When the time comes, she also wants to wear a dress and look cool in the snow!
However, thinking about how tired she gets after running a few steps, she decided to leave the path of becoming a martial arts expert to her future self!
Ifia decided to go with the flow and lie down, so she could only admire from afar. Anyway, the round outfit she was wearing wasn’t bad at all, and after looking at it for a while, she found it quite cute.
“Really?”
Knowing Ifia’s stubbornness well, Amelia raised an eyebrow, not believing that she wasn’t scared, so she asked directly.
This made Ifia immediately straighten her chest and lift her head, a proud smile on her lips.
“Of course, when I saw the bloodstains, I just had a bad feeling, so I shifted my gaze as soon as I saw part of the corpse.”
These somewhat cowardly yet proud words made Amelia helplessly laugh. With a few light laughs, she reached out and pulled Ifia into her arms.
Amelia lowered her head and rubbed her face against Ifia’s soft cheek. Then she gently kissed the corner of Ifia’s mouth, causing Ifia to kiss her back, not to be outdone.
After the intimacy, Amelia asked Ifia for her opinion, “Should we continue forward or change direction?”
“Let’s continue. After all, this is your territory now!” Ifia thought for a moment and quickly gave her answer.
If there’s trouble in Amelia’s territory, they must immediately catch and fine the culprits!
Of course, the decision to move forward wasn’t solely because Amelia was strong, they had already sent notifications on their way.
After the reluctant transfer of the Rosward royal territory, the Barlen family immediately divided a few hundred private guards. The private army of the Barlen family, stationed in Camus, was ready to be deployed at any time.
The Barlen family’s private guards were trained and more formidable than the palace guards, with strong abilities. Perhaps when their carriage arrived in Camus, they had already been detected.
Therefore, even if they got lost, there was no need to worry. They could just wait for the private guards to find them.
“Alright.”
Amelia gently lifted her hand to stroke Ifia’s silky black hair, at the same time ordering the coachman to continue forward. This made the coachman, who was somewhat fearful, worry about his life but had no choice but to continue whipping the horses.
Miss Barlen had given such instructions, and surely, she already had a plan in mind. As a mere coachman with limited abilities, it was better to follow powerful people!
As the carriage continued forward, swiftly passing over the bodies on the ground, it was immediately halted by a dozen individuals not long into the journey. These people were dressed in thick wolf-skin coats, each wearing fuzzy hats that obscured their faces.
However, their bodies bore traces of blood and injuries, and the weapons they brandished indicated that they were not to be taken lightly. It seemed that the corpses seen earlier were left behind by them!
Very bad.
We might die here!
“We’re just passing through!”
The coachman shouted loudly. After obediently stopping the carriage, he immediately huddled in fear, trembling and dared not reach out to push open the small window.
However, this glass-made small half-window might not withstand an axe attack!
Yet, the roadblockers did not launch a direct attack as the coachman feared. Instead, they warily observed the suddenly appearing luxurious carriage, unsure which family had come to Camus territory seeking a share. However, why was there no family emblem or mark on the carriage?
As the onlookers puzzled over this, little did they know that everything was because Ifia felt that a carriage emblazoned with the Barlen family emblem was too ostentatious.
Always being entangled by other nobles encountered along the way, she decided to change the carriage in frustration and finally got away from those individuals who were always trying to build connections!
Without the family emblem patterns, these people naturally couldn’t discern anything.
Ifia secretly and cautiously lifted a corner of the carriage curtain to take a peek outside. She saw the roadblockers looking fierce, which made her click her tongue involuntarily.
Was this a mid-road robbery?
Perhaps Ifia’s facial expression was too obvious, as Amelia casually glanced outside the carriage window and immediately provided an answer, “It’s not a road robbery because they are not affiliated.”
“???”
Both were looking at the same scene, why did Amelia, with just a glance, understand so much?
[ •_•?]
“You see, their positions are different, wary of each other to prevent sudden attacks. They paused the fight only because our carriage suddenly arrived, fearing that someone might take advantage.”
“The most important point is that the bodies we saw earlier have the same attire as them.”
With Amelia’s explanation, Ifia looked again and immediately noticed something fishy. As Amelia said, the dozen or so people blocking the carriage were not standing together but scattered, maintaining distance, and their weapons were aimed at each other. It seemed they were divided into two teams, with roughly equal numbers on each side.
“Oh no, Amelia, will they attack the carriage?”
“No, they won’t.”
“Why not?”
“Compared to our carriage, the conflicts between them run much deeper.”
Someone immediately spoke, as if to confirm Amelia’s words. “Yalman, this is just a misunderstanding. Do you really want to continue fighting?”
Seeing that the people by the carriage didn’t disembark, indicating a cold and indifferent stance, both wary sides continued to stare each other down. They couldn’t spare the energy to deal with a third party and decided to resolve the previous dispute first.
After all, it was just a carriage, and how many people could it hold? Plus, with the timid coachman, the people inside the carriage might be nothing more than pampered nobles.
In contrast, the guys on the opposite side, already bloodthirsty, seemed more dangerous!
“Nonsense! A misunderstanding? Clearly, you wanted to steal the magical plants. Now that you can’t win, you’re showing weakness. Too late!”
However, as soon as the leader of one side finished speaking, the other side immediately got enraged.
Swinging a large blade in anger, they nearly severed someone’s arm, and a fierce battle was about to erupt!
