Chapter 157: Intersection of Lives

Walking on the street, he planned to put away the documents first, then go find Olivia to tell her the good news about the apple orchard.

As he passed through the village crossroad, Leon suddenly heard a burst of clamor and astonishment from the people in the distance.

Unsure of what had happened, he stopped in his tracks and looked towards the southern village road.

He saw rooftop workers standing on the beams, gazing around, while passing villagers pointed and chatted animatedly about it.

Several young strong men, originally busy with construction, had stopped their work to join the crowd gathering there.

Looking past the crowd, Leon saw a foreign knight from the Southern Kingdom riding into the village.
