CLXXXVIII. Speed

The train sped wildly, like a runaway without brakes, the piercing screech between the wheels and rails as if coming from Hell.

"Fuck this shit!"

Mika's head buzzed, and he still had two pirates watching the horses on the low ridge.

All the other pirates had already boarded the train, leaving just the three of them, along with a group of horses intended for escape in the plan.

But now, everything was thrown into chaos.

The train grew smaller in their line of sight, about to disappear completely.

"What do we do?"

One of the pirates was somewhat anxious, thrown into disarray as the main force had all left with the train.

Mika's thoughts raced, and he quickly made a decision—the horses absolutely could not be abandoned. In this wilderness, where would they go to buy horses?

"Stay right here, don't move. Liszt will find a way to stop the train; just trust him."

Mika made up his mind.

On the other side.

A wilderness of white reeds stretching vastly like a sea of clouds.
