"Hello, thank you for allowing me to ride in your carriage."
Gray gave a noble salute to the purple-haired girl to express his gratitude, and then introduced himself.
"Grey Fergus."
The voice that came from the carriage just now was obviously the voice of a girl. Among the three people, the only one who fit the identity was the purple-haired girl in front of them.
"No, please sit down!"
When Gray was looking at the three of them, the three of them were also looking at Gray. When they heard Gray's thanks, the purple-haired girl smiled at Gray.
"I am Sophia Pandra."
Nodding to the other party, Gray sat down on the soft fur-paved bench.
The decoration inside the carriage is just as exquisite as outside the carriage. There is a small rune lamp on the roof, which is emitting a soft light at this time.
Gray became more and more curious about the girl's identity.
The powerful Blood Warrior serves as the coachman, the beautifully decorated carriage is accompanied by two women who appear to be maids but are dressed in female knight uniforms. All signs indicate that the girl's identity is not simple.
However, he had never heard of the surname "Pandra" mentioned by the other party. He probably was not a noble from the Marquis of Sidney.
Soon after, the caravan set off, sailed out of the city of Sidney, and began to head towards its destination.
Although Gray was an outsider in the carriage, the three women, the master and the servant, did not appear restrained because of this. After the carriage set off, they began to chat.
The content of their chat is very complicated, sometimes it is about clothing, sometimes it is about jewelry, sometimes it is about love stories in novels...
Gray sat in the carriage and looked at the scenery outside through the window.
Shrubs and grass on the roadside, fields full of crops, and occasional woodlands...
It has been more than a year since he came to this world, but the places Gray has been to are extremely limited. This time he wants to take a good look at the scenery along the way.
At noon, the caravan stopped for a while and continued to set off after having a meal.
During the process, Gray's appetite naturally shocked the caravan and the four people on the carriage.
Although they had heard of some people eating astonishingly, they had never heard of anyone like Gray, who could eat as much as three or four meals for others.

In the afternoon, dark clouds suddenly rolled in in the originally clear sky, and then in an instant, it started pouring rain.
The rainwater was as dense as falling from a water spray truck, and it made a crackling sound on the carriage, just like stones falling one by one.
The surrounding ground suddenly became wet, and obvious water flow formed in many places, flowing towards low-lying areas.
"heavy rain!"
Gray said slightly surprised as he closed the window of the carriage.
"Yes, and it was so sudden. It fell all of a sudden."
The purple-haired girl Sophia was also slightly surprised.
"I don't know how long this rain will last. If it keeps raining, it will be very troublesome to set up the tent later."
The woman in orange battle uniform said.
"Looking at this posture, I might not be able to stop for a while."
A woman wearing a red battle suit answered the call.
"That would be troublesome."
The woman in orange battle uniform raised her eyebrows slightly.
At this moment, the voice of a brown bearded man came from outside the carriage.
"Miss, the caravan said they found a village ahead and plan to stay there tonight."
"There's a village? That's great."
Before the purple-haired girl Sophia spoke, the woman in the orange battle suit and the woman in the red battle suit couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This kind of weather is not suitable for pitching a tent at all. Even if the tent is pitched, it is still wet and not suitable for sleeping.
Originally they thought they were going to spend the day on the carriage, but they didn't expect that there was a village ahead and they could stay in the village.
"Village?"
Gray couldn't help but look happy. Although the conditions in the village would definitely not be very good, they would definitely be much better than sleeping in a wet tent.
After the carriage traveled a few hundred meters, it turned into a fork in the road and finally stopped.
Gray opened the carriage window slightly and looked outside.
A low house appeared in front of them. It was quite old. The area near the house was even covered with moss. People couldn't help but worry whether the house would leak or collapse suddenly under such heavy rain.
And he also noticed that there were a lot of spider webs near the house, even on the door.
He couldn't help but raise his brows, opened the car window a little more, and looked at other houses.
But I saw that these houses were the same as the house just now, the same old, the same moss and cobwebs.
"This village may be an uninhabited village!"
He expressed his suspicion.
"Uninhabited village?"
The woman in the red battle uniform was surprised. She came to another car window and opened it slightly to look outside. After a while, he closed the window and said to the purple-haired girl Sophia.
"Miss, there seems to be no one in this village."
The purple-haired girl Sophia nodded and said.
"Let's see if we can find a place to pitch the tent. If not, just stay in the car and rest for now."
The most feared situation did not appear. More than an hour later, someone from the caravan came over to inform them that the tents had been set up for them.
The tents were pitched in houses that did not leak. Gray and the man with a brown beard were assigned a tent. The purple-haired girl Sophia and two other women were assigned a tent. The two tents were adjacent to each other.
The heavy rain was still falling. Under such weather, it was definitely impossible to practice in the afternoon. After dinner, Gray returned to the house where the tent was located.
The brown bearded man came back here before him. He was holding an iron pot and taking small sips. The smell of alcohol wafted from a distance.
Seeing Gray coming, he grinned at Gray, raised the iron pot in his hand, and asked.
"Young Master, would you like some?"
"Thank you, but no, I'm not old enough to drink yet."
Gray declined politely.
It’s not that he really insists on drinking only after his 18th birthday. In fact, the man only has a wine flask in his hand, and he really doesn’t have the habit of drinking other people’s saliva.
On the other side, the purple-haired girl Sophia and the woman in red battle uniform gathered around a foldable wooden table, drinking milk tea and looking at the pouring rain outside.
Another woman wearing an orange battle uniform went somewhere unknown and was not seen.
Seeing Gray return, the purple-haired girl Sophia nodded to Gray and asked.
"Would you like a cup of milk tea?"
"Thank you then!"
Gray did not refuse this time. He walked over and sat on the side of the folding seat at the other party's signal.
The purple-haired girl Sophia took out a clean white teacup, poured a cup, and handed it to Gray.
The milk tea was steaming slightly, and the rich fragrance hit his face. Gray reached out to pick it up and took a sip.
"It was delicious!"
Gray couldn't help but his eyes lit up and he praised.
The taste is slightly different from the milk tea you usually drink, but it is more fragrant and delicious.
"As long as you like it."
The purple-haired girl Sophia asked after smiling slightly.
"It's rare to see people like you traveling alone. Aren't your family worried?"
"It's okay. Although I was blocked when I proposed it, I finally convinced them."
Gray said with a shrug.
Footsteps approached from behind. Gray looked back and saw a woman wearing an orange battle uniform coming with an umbrella in her hand. She sat on the other side of the wooden table and spoke.
"Miss, as you expected, there are indeed weird things in this village."
The woman in orange battle uniform said.
"eccentric?!"
Gray looked at the woman in orange uniform in confusion.
I was wondering where the other party went before, but I didn't expect that the other party went to investigate the village. It sounded like he was following the orders of the purple-haired girl Sophia. Did the other party discover something
"What's weird?"
The purple-haired girl Sophia asked.
"There are a lot of daily necessities in all the houses. It's as if all the villagers were evacuated suddenly. Nothing was taken away."
The woman in orange battle uniform replied.
