During the night,



"Don't you think we'll arrive in six months if we keep walking like this?" Arran said as he conversed with them. They all shot him deadly glares.


"How dare he talk like that," Harvey thought.


"If it weren't for Ayin, I would have killed him," Curtis muttered.


Danyin, sitting on Shuu, looked at Arran. He was right; she was slowing them down, but what could she do? She was getting more tired, her belly was growing, and it made long walks uncomfortable, even with Curtis carrying her.


"I'm sorry..." she said, her voice sad.


At her words, they quickly turned their eyes back to Arran. What have you done, idiot!


"Don't listen to him, Yiyi. His words don't matter," Harvey said, quickly sitting beside her.


Curtis met Dan-yin's gaze and saw her holding back tears. He swung his tail and hit Arran's head hard.


"Ouch!"


"Ayin, don't listen to that idiot," Winston added.


Danyin, still upset at Arran's words, pouted while looking at Shuu. He pulled her closer to his chest and kissed her forehead. "There's nothing wrong with a slow pace," he reassured her.


Arran, displeased after being hit, asked, "What?"


Just as he was about to speak again, Winston glared at him, ready to stop him if he upset Danyin further.


"I just wanted us to arrive early since she's almost three months along," Arran said, trying to choose his words carefully to avoid making Danyin more upset.


"Isn't it better for her to arrive and rest well before giving birth?"


That is true. Dan-yin also want to give birth in comfortable place, she clearly scared if they suddenly give birth while travelling. She sighed while lean her head on Shuu shoulder.


"How far are we now" Muir asked, he been thinking if the faster way is to get her is by flying. They can fly when  she had enough rest and fly faster.


Arran looked at Muir and replied, "It's quite far if we keep walking like this unless we fly."


"How about I fly with Ayin? Once she gets tired, we can use Winston or maybe Parker to run faster," he suggested. Parker had been following them, making it the perfect time to use him. The others could guard and protect Ayin while one of them ran toward the city.


"i don't mind" parker said, the least he could do to helped her.
