Although I don't know why, it seems that Nar regards Rod as the boss, and Rod simply accepts this little follower.

Then, one big and one small, the two guys continued eastward.

Aside from a few hapless wolves, Rhodes didn't encounter anything of note in Freljord, so the only possibility was that "East" was the eastern part of Freljord, unless Orn was fooling him.

In other words, Ionia.

Looking at Freljord's east coastline, Rhodes blinked, and finally had to summon his flying carpet helplessly.

Holding Nar's neck, the two men sat on the flying carpet and continued eastward.

……………………

A peculiar-looking flying carpet swaggered down on the outskirts of Weili.

Carrying Nar, Rhodes entered the chamber.

Rod wasn't very happy along the way, although Nar Jr. was trying to restrain himself, but ...... As an active yodeler, especially the untamed ancient yodelers, Nar's journey has not been easy.

Rod had to take care of Nar as carefully as he would a child with ADHD.

As a person who is not good at taking care of others, Rhodes has a big head.

Now that he finally came to the end of the line, Rhodes felt that he needed to rest for a few days, and considering the influence of the crown, he couldn't stay in a regular inn, so the best thing to do was to find someone who didn't have the power to talk first.

Rod's first choice was Akali.

As a former Shadow Fist and now an outlier thorn, Akali should be relatively indifferent to power, and Rhodes hopes that she can curb the effects of the curse to a certain extent, and then find a place to rest for herself.

However, in the former inn, Rhodes found no trace of Akali.

The tattoo artist is still there, but Akali is no longer here Rhodes controls Nar, who may run away at any moment, and lingers in the trap for several days, but he never sees Akali, not even her traces.

Obviously, the outlier had already left the village, and as for whether it was because the betrayers here had been eliminated, or because there was some other important reason, it was unknown to Rhodes.

Things are in trouble.

Rhodes had come to Ionia, when he was alone and free to move.

But this time, Rhodes is under a curse and carries a small oil bottle to find clues to lift the curse in this newborn land...... That's too much trouble.

In desperation, Rhodes could only count his friends in Ionia.

There is no doubt that when it comes to the power that can fight against the curse, I'm afraid the first one is Master Yi and his disciple Rod is sure that these two are estimated to be difficult to be affected by the curse of power.

It might be a good idea to ask them for help.

But here's the problem...... Rhodes didn't know where the two were, the only thing he was sure of was that, as two hermits, they shouldn't live in crowded places, nothing more.

In desperation, Rod simply took Nar with him and went into the mountains north of Navoli, if there was no one here, maybe he would go to Baru'e to have a look, which was the former site of Wuji Kendo, and before leaving last time, Master Yi said that he would take Wukong back to have a look.

……………………

Compared to the last time, this time Rhodes saw Ionia seemed to be much more peaceful.

It seems that the effects of the Noxian invasion are gradually fading, and the wounds of the war are gradually being healed, and with the exception of a few battlefield sites, which are as hideous as ever, the whole of Ionia seems to be rapidly moving in the direction of "peace and tranquility" described in countless articles.

The number of caravans on the roads was increasing, the population of the towns was growing, and it seemed that many of the Ionians who had fled to the mountains during the war had returned to the towns.

In this case...... Maybe the contradictions between the Vastayas and the humans will be eased somewhat?

It's a pity that I can't investigate and ask for it myself.

Then, just as Rod was sighing to himself, Nar was suddenly attracted by a large tree.

Seeing that little Nar stopped and began to diligently throw his boomerang at a large tree, Rod looked up in some surprise.

Hand on the pergola, in the warm morning sun, Rhodes saw the reason why Nalr threw the boomerang in the tree, a fellow who looked like a scaly monkey, grinning at little Nar.

Seeing this scene, Rod couldn't help but smile on his face.

Apparently, the guy in the tree was some kind of vastaya, and he, for some reason, noticed Nar, which led to the current situation.

Nar's boomerang is very accurate, but the Vastayas in the trees have a geographical advantage, and every time Nar makes a move, he hides directly behind the trunk of the tree, and even when Nar uses a little trick to try to use the boomerang to fly back to teach him a lesson, he will simply hide in a tree hole......

As a result, Nar was grumpy for less than a minute, and Nar's eyes were red.

Chapter 2 is later, really just later...... The author's recent routine is simply amazing.
