"Sir Leech! I'm Steven Linsen!" The young noble's son immediately turned to look at Leech and bowed. "My father loves Porcupine Wine!"
A smile appeared on Leech's face. "Sir Steven, we will definitely rescue Miss Agnes!"
'Doing business together makes us friends.'
The party continued onward, the only change being that Leech now had an emotional and indignant Steven by his side.
Philip sent out scouts periodically, but the corpse bird Leech controlled had already reached Pebble Castle far ahead of them.
It was a small, dilapidated castle built on a riverbend.
The corpse bird spread its wings, flying low over the land.
Near Pebble Castle, someone had set up fishing nets in a stream.
However, the stream was too shallow to hold any large fish.
At a sentry post, two armored soldiers were chatting idly.
The corpse bird immediately perched in a nearby tree, tilting its head to listen.
"When do we get our turn to go in and have some fun? Leopold gets her first, though."
