Chapter 172: Escape (2)

Slash!

More and more people came to chase after them.

"Run, Miss!" Prince Lester frowned when he saw that the number of knights who chased after them were more than what they thought at the beginning. Who else would send so many knights to chase after a noble lady?

Aurora could see that her speed was far from comparable to the speed of these knights.

Her training was not very good and even if it was good, the level was far from the real knights.

After all, she was not like them who trained almost all day long.

Her talent was also not there.

Swish! Clang!

Aurora raised the sword she brought and blocked the attack from the knight who attacked her swiftly. Her eyes narrowed slightly.

"Davis Family. It seems that Benny should be the one to send you."

The knights froze in place when Aurora said that. That reaction alone had told Aurora that her guess was correct.

Then again, these knights were stupid.

They didn’t change their attire when they came out.

Every knights, maids, servants, from each family would wear different type of clothes depending on which family they came from. The difference might be small but for Aurora who was used to pay attention to such details, it looked really glaring.

And the pause these knights made was more than enough for her.

Swish! Slash!

Making use of the knight’s surprise, Aurora killed one of them. She turned her head and saw Prince Lester had already solved the other knights who come to them.

"Miss, we have to hurry."

Prince Lester clearly detected that there were many people who were rushing in their direction. There were many people who didn’t want Aurora to escape safely.

"I know."

Aurora frowned.

She had planned everything for today, including her escape. Since she was no longer part of the nobility, Aurora knew that she would never end well if she stayed in the Yellow Kingdom’s Capital City.

As for how she knew this would be the end?

This would be the best result when she considered that her own family members refused to let her off. If they planned to make her reputation turned bad, then they would not want to see her safe and sound.

So the best option would be for her to leave this place.

Of course, if she wanted to return in the future, she would figure out a way.

But for now, it would be best for her to run away.

Prince Lester stepped forward and said, "Pardon me, Miss."

With that, he lifted Aurora and then started running at the fastest speed possible. Over the past few years, his practice had allowed him to become stronger. Running while carrying Aurora would not pose any challenge for him.

Aurora held Prince Lester’s neck and looked back. She could see some shadows chasing them and it wouldn’t take long for them to be found.

’Davis Family, White Family, Royal Family,... ah, it’s really annoying.’

The corner of Aurora’s lips curled up slightly.

Their hostility towards her was not exactly covered up, allowing Aurora to know that these people didn’t exactly have the best attitude towards her. But at the same time, it also allowed her to make enough preparation to face them.

Now, they were using the simplest and the stupidest method.

Assassination.

If she was still the duke’s daughter, they would never dare to do this because of the family behind her.

But now, they were really outrageous.

"Turn the corner at the front and turn the barrel down."

"Yes."

Swish! Bang!

As they passed by the intersection, Prince Lester kicked the barrels down and the content spilled down. It was filled with oil that Aurora had prepared.

Oil could be considered to be quite expensive but necessity item.

Lantern required either oil or candle depending on their type.

And in front of the barrel was exactly a lantern that was knocked off by the sudden move.

The candle inside was burning and before long... Blarr!

Fire spread out.

"Damn it!"

"Put it off!"

These knights were blocked by the fire and had to stop for a moment. They couldn’t possibly let the fire spread in this area since it was not far from the residences of some nobles.

If the people from these families knew they were here and did nothing, it would only bring trouble.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Soon, Prince Lester and Aurora had escaped from these knight’s sight.

They headed towards one of the gate with least people. Before coming here, Aurora had already bribed them to rest more in the nearby tavern. These guards were usually quite lazy too and when they saw a noble asked them to rest, they would naturally follow.

No one wanted to make trouble.

In this way, this gate was basically empty during this period of time.

"We’re here, Miss." Prince Lester stopped and put Aurora down carefully. He looked in Aurora’s direction thoughtfully but said nothing and then lowered his head.

Aurora didn’t notice Prince Lester’s gaze and opened the side door of the gate. It was the door that they usually used when they didn’t want to open the gate fully and only used to let some servants out when it was necessary.

"Let’s go."

They passed through the gate and found Les and William were already waiting for them. The two people smiled brightly when they saw Aurora and Prince Lester coming out.

The night escape is a huge success.

"Miss, the carriage is ready."

"Good." Aurora nodded.

She went to the carriage and William became the driver. Prince Lester was responsible for the protection and Les stayed in the other carriage containing their supplies.

Inside the carriage, Aurora looked out to the Yellow Kingdom’s Capital City.

She had left behind a lot of things there.

Hopefully these people would appreciate her ’effort.’

When thinking about this, Aurora smiled sincerely. Unfortunately, she wouldn’t be able to see their reactions in person.

It would have been interesting.
