Chapter 143: Request For Backup

It was noisy in the morning when Jason woke up tiredly only to see that his mother was already up and by the look of things, she is preparing to leave while Hannah was still sleeping soundly in the bed.

"When am I going to get a good sleep" complained Jason as he stood up.

"Once we get to the capital, then you can have all the sleep you want but until then, we have to hurry out of this place since our pursuer could already be on our tail" replied Clara as she went to wake Hannah up.

With a little unwillingness, Hannah finally got up before she was handed some bread and water before they left the inn.

"So where are we heading to" asked Jason right after they came out of the town.

"To get to the capital, we need to go through a mountain in the east not far from here before passing through wasteland then taking the path on the north, Will take us directly to a town called Lapis where we can get some transportation that will take us directly to the capital" replied Clara as she began to look at the map while moving her hand on it to show them the path they would be taking. 

"It looks quite an easy trip to me" commented Hannah after withdrawing her gaze from the map.

"What you deemed to be an easy trip would actually take us approximately four days to get there so tell me it is still an easy trip to you" asked Jason with a sigh.

"What did you just say it is going to take us four days to get there" yelled Hannah in shock.

"Well if we are fast on our feet, it will take us about four days but it will be more than that the more we stay in this place" replied Clara before taking the lead forward. 

"So I Will have to open my eyes all day without taking a rest, I am going to die before we even get to the capital" said Hannah who was almost in tears as she followed her mother. 

"Hahaha, you don't have to worry about getting a rest, I believe mother will give you some time to catch your breath" replied Jason as he struck her hair lightly.

They continued walking towards the path that led to t mountain which seemed to take forever for them to even see the mountain until it was getting dark and that was when they could finally see the mountain in the distance. Meanwhile, back in Carpie town the four men from the Wallace family have finally made it there.

"They should be taking shelter in here" said Berry as he looked around the place.

"We should split up so that we will be able to cover more ground" added Alex.

"We are to meet here after we are done searching" replied Berry before picking a place to search. 

After going their separate ways to search for the target, Alex makes his way towards the same shabby building that Jason and his mother went to previously to purchase a map since it is the busiest place in all of Carpie town.

Looking at the place as it was crowded with people getting drunk here and there with some of the men playing with the ladies in the building and with a sigh, Alex make his way to a table as he sat down before placing his leg on the table before letting out a deep roar.

"S.I.L.E.N.C.E" 

After the roar, there was absolutely quiet before all eyes were turned to him, and seeing that he has gotten their attention, Alex let out a creepy smile before placing a small purse on the table.

"I only have one reason to be here and that is to gather information about some runaway and anyone who could tell me what I want to hear, then this purse here would be given to him or her for the trouble and I believe it is a fair deal so let's get to business" said Alex.

Before we move on to business, would you be so kind as to give us the description of the person you are looking for" asked a middle-aged man who has a lady on his leg.

"That won't be a problem. If you most know, there are three in number consisting of a boy and a girl with a grown-up woman" replies Alex.

After Alex has given the description out they begin to battle for who wants the purse but unfortunately for them, none of them were able to give him what he wanted to hear which left him disappointed and was just about to walk out of the building but that was when he heard a voice in the crowd.

"There was a woman who came here with a boy and a girl yesterday".

Turning around to see who said those only for him to see a man dressed in rag seating on a mat while pouring himself some liquor, not wasting time Alex walked to him as he squat before asking the man.

"Do you by any chance know where they are at the moment".

"No I don't but the least I can say is that she came here to purchase a map from me" replied the man not even bothering to say what map they came to purchase but Alex already has an idea what it was.

Getting up, Alex threw the purse at him before walking out of the building as he went to the spot where they had agreed to meet up. After waiting for some time, the others also arrive at the spot with berry having an angry look on his face which makes Alex chuckled as he asks.

"So were you guys able to find anything about them".

"Nothing man, I even went through the trouble of asking whoever I see but it was like they have never been here" replied Derrick.

"What about you Wilson, were you able to find anything" asked Berry.

"I only know that they rented a room in the Inn to spend the name and nothing more" replied Wilson.

"What about you Alex and with the look on your face, I find it hard to believe that you didn't have any news" said Berry as he turned to Alex.

"I may have some information about them but it is not something that we can do on our own, so I suggested that we request for backup" replied Alex.

"What makes you think we will need back up to get the three of them" asked Wilson who seemed confused as to why would Alex say something like that and he was not the only one who felt that way.

"Are you saying we are not good enough to catch them" asked Berry with an angry look on his face.

"That's not what I meant when I say we need more people" reply Alex seeing that Berry has misunderstood him.

"Then explain yourself" said Berry.

"Well I got information from someone in an unpleasant place and according to the man, they came to purchase a map" replied Alex.

After listening to his reasoning, Berry begins to think since it would be difficult to locate them now that they have left Carpie town. 

"Do you understand why I said we'll need more people" asked Alex.

"I guess you are right and since we don't know where they would be, we have no choice than to request for more men but the problem now is if they would be able to make it in time" replied Berry.

"They can start searching those areas that are closest to them while we split up to cover some part" suggested Derrick.

There was no disagreement about his suggestion since it is the only choice they have. Taking out a transmission seal from his robe, Berry sent a message to their family head before keeping the seal away.

"I'm taking the path that leads to the mountain" said Alex before anyone could say anything.

After picking the path he want to search, the rest did the same before making their move but before going their separate way, Berry commanded.

"If anyone should come across them, do not hesitate to inform the others".

After giving the instruction, they split up and went their separate ways.

"Keep on dreaming if you think that I will let you know if I were to come across them. They are all mine" mutter Alex with an evil grin on his face.

The reason why Alex chose to take the path that led to the mountain was because it was an unusual place for one to be and since they are being chased, it makes it the perfect place for them to hide from their pursuer.

After following the path for some time, Alex came across some footprint on the ground, and although it doesn't look like those made by humans since it has almost been wiped out by the wind but he still didn't lose hope but instead a smile appeared on his face as he picked up speed while moving ahead.
