Chapter 730

The travelers on this road were not being followed.

Ray only suspected Athena, who had to rest for two hours after every half day of walking.

Fortunately, they were not being followed, which made Ray breathe a sigh of relief.

They finally arrived in Nexalasia after six days.

Ray sent out scouts to see if Lennox had arrived in Nexalasia.

In order to avoid attracting attention, Lennox only brought a small team this time, disguised as merchants heading to Nexalasia.

The scout returned with news and told Ray, “Your Highness, Lennox has arrived in Nexalasia safely and is staying at the wharf inn.”

Things went unexpectedly smoothly. Xander’s men did not follow, but Lennox’s reinforcements arrived.

Ray felt confident of success, and his face was full of smiles.

He said to Athena, “Atheny, we have finally come to the end of our suffering.”

The city ahead was close. Athena lifted the curtain and looked into the distance, saying, “This is my first time in Nexalasia. I heard the food here has a unique flavor…”

Before she could finish speaking, Ray took the initiative to say, “If you like it, I can bring you all the delicacies of the city.”

Athena raised her lips and looked at him. “Okay.”

These days, she had been cold.

At first, Ray was very worried, but seeing Athena’s smile, the weight on his heart finally lifted.

Athena still had him in her heart.

The carriage entered the city, and the scout had already told Ray about the situation ahead.

Lennox was waiting for him in the inn.

Ray nodded and gave the order. “Enter the city.”

The team had already been broken up into parts and entered the city.

The carriage carrying Ray and Athena followed behind.

Ray lifted a corner of the car curtain and glanced at the city gate, where the guards were checking the passing pedestrians.

The scout’s voice was very low. “The city gate guards have changed shifts and increased by 20% compared to last month, but the inspection is not strict.”

Ray tapped his finger lightly on the carriage, and his voice was low. “Understood.”

The carriage passed through two noisy streets, with hawking, children’s laughter, and the sound of finger- guessing games from the tavern rising and falling.

When the curtain was lifted again, they had arrived at the Yuelai Inn.

The decoration on the lintel swayed with a warm yellow halo in the dimming sky.

Ray got out of the carriage and helped Athena down as well.

Athena glanced left and right, and the faces of the surrounding merchants were very familiar. The entire street was Xander’s people.

So, he had already deployed everything.

Ready to strike in Nexalasia, to wipe out Ray and Lennox in one fell swoop.

All the way here, he had had people secretly protecting Athena.

Athena felt a little complicated, but Ray had already gone astray, and she could not save him.

Stepping into the inn, Ray had already instructed the waiter to prepare a table of specialties.

He opened a separate room for Athena, next to his.

The waiter took Athena upstairs and stopped in front of the best room. “Madam, here it is.”

Athena nodded and was about to walk in.

The two maids behind her followed her closely.

“You wait outside,” Athena ordered.

The maids looked at Ray in fear, not daring to act without his order.

Ray looked embarrassed, and Athena said, “What? Are you afraid I’ll run away?”

“Atheny, that’s not what I meant. I’m just afraid you might be in danger.” Ray’s words sounded pale.

“All my danger come from you.” Athena looked at him gravely, “You’ve been watching me all the way, and now I’m annoyed. I just want to have a good rest, and no one is allowed to come in.”

Athena finished speaking and slammed the door shut. Ray looked helpless and said to the two maids, “Do as she says.”
