Chapter 82: Chapter 70: Arranging an Escape Route_3
This behavior made the two people behind Kana a bit nervous.
"No, we will not help you fight the darkness, we can’t beat it, and we don’t want the fishmen’s lives sacrificed here.
Helping friends isn’t worth risking our lives."
So direct, Alyris and Blake couldn’t help but think to themselves.
They finally understood why Kana would say that fishmen prefer straightforward words, without any twists and turns.
But evidently, Kana didn’t mind and quickly said, "There’s no need for you to fight, we’re also planning to leave. We’re taking a raft down the river, all the way to the estuary.
But you should know that the river downstream is not safe, and we’re helpless against the threats in the water while on the raft.
But you fishmen are different, you’re also in danger in the water, and I hope by then we can leave together. I hope you can help us ward off the threats in the water."
After Kana finished speaking, he added, "I know there’s a place by the coast at the estuary that’s very suitable for the fishmen to live. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
If you can escort us there, then I’ll take you to that area."
Upon hearing Kana’s words, this fishmen prophet only thought for a moment before nodding his head.
Finally, he bent his three fingers.
"No problem, but you must leave by tomorrow. We’re planning to leave tonight, but since it’s for a friend, we can wait another day."
It seems that the weight of friendship is very clear in the hearts of the fishmen.
Although they had to count with their fingers, they are very skilled in weighing things.
Blake, standing behind Kana, had to admit that this fishmen prophet’s intelligence was significantly different from his foolish appearance.
"No problem, you can leave here now, I have a riverbank downstream, there’s a camp by the river with some rafts that are easily visible.
How about you wait for us there? We’ll leave together from there then."
Upon hearing Kana’s proposal, the fishmen prophet nodded.
"No problem, we’ll go over in a while."
Upon hearing this, Kana did not leave. After thinking for a moment, he said, "We also need to go down there, let’s go together."
The fishmen prophet did not refuse, nodding his head, and began urging the fishmen to hurry up.
Kana wanted to follow them because he was truly afraid that this group of fishmen might forget about it while swimming.
It was not impossible and he had to prevent that possibility.
The fishmen moved quickly, if Kana had delayed for another couple of hours, this group might have been gone.
They boarded the fishing boat, and with the help of the fishmen pushing, they swiftly followed the river downward.
Bobo was writing furiously. It was the first time she had seen humans and fishmen helping each other.
It felt like some kind of alliance had been reached, something definitely worth recording.
Upon reaching some bends, with rocks protruding everywhere and the rapid river waters,
this was the most dangerous, but with the fishmen’s assistance, the fishing boat navigated this area with great ease, smoothly reaching the logging camp.
At this time, the logging camp, besides some torches still burning, seemed very quiet.
"You guys wait for us here, rest here for a while."
The fishmen prophet nodded, and those fish dispersed around the opposite bank of the river, standing all over this riverside.
In an instant, they spread all around, everywhere.
The few of them returned to the camp, and the soldiers discovered them.
Kana went straight back to his tent to rest.
Alyris walked towards her tent, and just as she reached the doorway, she suddenly sighed and sat directly at the entrance.
Bobo, who came along, seemed a bit puzzled, scratching her head.
"Do you have something on your mind? Did something happen?" Bobo came over, sat down beside Alyris, and hugged her tail in her arms.
She had been following along but didn’t notice any issues?
"His Highness, His Highness doesn’t seem to be in a good status, I don’t know how to comfort him."
"Kana?" Bobo was a bit surprised.
Even though she didn’t know Kana well, from what she saw of Kana during this period, doing so many major things with him in such a short time,
she learned that Kana was obviously a strong, thoughtful, and mysterious person.
His outward behavior didn’t match what Alyris had previously told her.
But his prophetic abilities, Bobo also acknowledged.
For such a person to suddenly lose spirit was unexpected for her.
After all, Bobo thought, could anything be more despairing than the situation faced that day at the fortress?
On that day, Bobo really thought she was going to die and turn into those rotten, foul-smelling creatures.
Not just her, everyone present thought the same, except for Kana.
He brought hope to everyone then.
Just like firelight.
Alyris told Bobo her guess.
"A future without hope..." Bobo murmured.
For the moment, she didn’t know what to do either because they couldn’t see the future or experience Kana’s kind of status firsthand.
But perhaps it was just like their status that day at the fortress.
"At this time, there’s probably nothing we can do, but maybe you can."
"Me?"
"Yes, comfort him, with your charm."
"My charm?"
"Yes, when I traveled before, I learned from humans that when males are dispirited, they need the comfort of a female maiden; it’s a good remedy."
"Then, what should I do?"
"Uh...hold his hand? Or, more daringly, hug him?" Bobo wasn’t sure either, after all, she’s just a mouse.
"Is that so?"
"It should be."
Alyris somewhat believed.
