Chapter 828: Chapter 813: Magic Plane 21

The next three days’ journey remained unchanged.

At first, there was a bit of curiosity to look at the scenery outside, but after two days of continuous viewing, they grew tired of it and resorted to closing their eyes to sleep or rest as soon as they got into the vehicle.

Today was the fifth day, and after an early breakfast, they started on their journey again. The weather wasn’t great, looking like it might rain.

"The weather’s not looking good today, be careful, I’m worried something might happen," Yan Mo said to them.

"Got it," the others nodded.

"Coward, it’s just a change in the weather," Dair, seated inside, overheard Yan Mo and gave an indifferent glance, disdainfully saying.

"Some people really are like dogs, their master says one word, and they bark in response, even when it’s not about them – they still feel the need to make noise, craving the master’s attention," Wei Se would usually ignore such comments but feeling bored now, she decided to confront him directly.

"Who are you calling a dog?" Dair glared at Wei Se, furious. As a noble pharmacist, he couldn’t believe she dared to call him a dog. This was too presumptuous.

"Heh, the dog barks again, so irritating to hear," Wei Se glanced at him with contempt and said with a sneer.

This look enraged Dair even further, reminding him of how the nobles used to look at him before he became a pharmacist – with disdain and contempt.

But ever since he became a third-level Pharmacist, no one had looked at him that way – only with envy and admiration.

Yet now, he was being looked at with that same gaze again, by an unknown woman no less, filling his heart with spite, and he wished death upon her.

"Don’t get worked up, if you start a fight you’ll be thrown off the vehicle," Linna sensed his agitation and patted him, urging him to calm down.

Dair came back to his senses, nodded at her, closed his eyes, and tried hard to soothe his inner turmoil, suppressing the malice within. Now was not the time to act; he would wait, determined to make her pay for her words and the look she gave him today.

Wei Se felt his malice towards her, tsk, such a foolish mortal not knowing whether he was alive or dead, powerless yet thinking about doing evil.

"Don’t mess it up, a lesson is good enough, killing her would bring unnecessary trouble," Yan Mo sent a message to Wei Se. They wouldn’t usually kill someone unless in an emergency, out of concern for potential consequences.

"Understood," Wei Se nodded, aware of his meaning.

The atmosphere in the carriage was tense, and the two Elves were even quieter.

Suddenly, the sound of rain hitting the roof was felt.

"It’s started to rain, and it’s coming down hard," Xia Yue said.

"I wonder if it will stop – traveling in the rain is a bit risky," Xia Xi said with furrowed brows.

As they speculated, the driver from outside knocked on the carriage door and then opened it.

"The rain is too heavy; we are planning to find a place to stop," the man shouted at them before closing the door again.

"If we don’t travel, will we miss the examination?" Keff was worried about this; according to the original plan, they would arrive two days early. Now by stopping for half a day, and with no idea if they might need to stop again later, it could be concerning.

"It should be fine; the Mercenary Corps people are quite credible. Unless the weather turns extreme, and the current conditions are indeed risky for travel, we’d risk a longer delay if something dangerous happens. It’s better to stop now and wait it out," Linna thought for a moment before speaking.

"That’s reassuring," Keff relaxed a bit after hearing Linna’s words, trusting her somewhat.

They talked about stopping, but didn’t halt immediately, instead continuing for another half-hour before finding a spot with good terrain that was sheltered from the wind. Nearby, there was a cave, but the environment there wasn’t ideal.

Qiao Sen sent word to those in the carriage about the situation.

They could make their own decision, whether to head to the cave to avoid the rain or to stay inside the carriage. Of course, those with rainproof tents could also set them up.

If it kept raining, they wouldn’t travel any further that day.

Dair and his group immediately got off and went into the cave to take shelter from the rain; after all, the cave made it possible to lie down, which was far more comfortable than sitting here.

The two Elves followed suit.

"What should we do?" Xia Yue asked, looking at the others.

"Let’s just sit for a bit and see how the rain goes. It might stop soon, and then we wouldn’t have to fuss for nothing. If it’s still raining later, we can still set up the tents without being too late," Yan Mo stuck his head out, checking the weather outside before speaking.

"You’re a dragon, can you predict the weather?" Xia Yue asked Mo Si, sitting beside her.

Hearing Xia Yue’s question, Mo Si looked at her, witnessing her curious gaze. His mouth twitched slightly, and he replied with a touch of speechlessness, "I can’t; I am a Black Dragon."
