Chapter 1779 Chapter 1779. Quiet

After the two left, John signaled the Allied forces to depart. Without Jack's runestone of marching, it should take these armies around five days to arrive at World Throne.

He also sent a message to Water Lily, who was now the commander of the Allied navies. They only lost a few ships during the battle against the frogman pirates, so their armada was still imposing. These ships now sailed out of the lake into the large river that branched to all over the country.

Similar to Heavenly Citadel, World Throne's territory also had a lake. This lake also connected to the river, so the Allied navies could sail their ships there.

John believed the Allied forces were more than enough to handle whatever defensive measures Master prepared at World Throne. That was considering if Master was truly there. However, he still thought it was better to bring the navies, just in case. They were too close to victory to be careless.

Grace looked back at the departing armies.

"You know, you can go with them if you want. I can look after Jack by myself," Domon said as she and Brave King flew side-by-side.

"No, I want to make sure Jack is okay," Grace said.

"My grandson is lucky to have you," Domon said, which caused Grace's cheeks to redden.

"I heard you taught Jack and Red Death when they were little. What were they like then?" Grace asked.

"You mean Cleo? Do you want to know what they were like, or how close they were?" Domon teased, which caused the redness on Grace's cheeks to turn up another notch.

Domon chuckled. "Don't worry about them. Cleo has more interest in martial arts than my grandson. Her seeming interest in Jack is simply because she wants to defeat him."

"Really?" Grace then remembered Jet once told her about Domon's relationship with Murong. She guessed she shouldn't put much trust in Domon's judgment about someone's feelings.

"Cleo is a good girl, even if she is too serious sometimes. But to be frank, I prefer if Jack is with you than her."

"I understand. It's just that I know a thing or two about curses. I thought our leader might have been under a curse, so I came."

"Is he under a curse?" Grace asked.

Quiet shook her head. She said, "He is simply resting. He might have done something that caused his body extreme exhaustion, but I'm certain he is not in any danger. He will wake up eventually."

"Do you know when that will happen?"

Quiet again shook her head. "Unfortunately, no."

"As long as he is not in danger, then it's okay," Domon said. "I say let him rest. He had been too busy all this time."

"Well, since there is nothing I can do, please allow me to excuse myself," Quiet said.

"Forgive me, but we haven't thanked you for saving Jack when he was trapped in the Order of Magi," Grace said.

Quiet smiled at the gesture. "There is no need to. It is only right for a guild member to help her fellow members."

"But how did you know he was trapped in there?" Grace asked.

"I have a friend who is a member of that faction. He secretly found out about Jack and informed me about it. Since everyone had gone to the convention, I tried finding help from outside the guild. I'm glad that everything works out in the end."

"That is very kind of you, miss. I represent my grandson to thank you for what you've done," Domon said and made a polite bow.

"As I said, there is no need to. I was simply doing what was my responsibility. Now, if you will excuse me," Quiet said and walked toward the exit.

Once Quiet was out of the door, Domon said, "She is no normal person."Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
