Chapter 235: New Guest

"Trap them?" Gabriel couldn't help but let out a sigh. "If only I could..."

He didn't have any forces to split them up to be able to make a trap for them. Moreover, there was another place where he needed to be, so that was out of the question. 

"Don't worry. There will be no trap for them. In reality, we are going to the Axin Kingdom. It's just to throw them off our trail that we need you to lie. It's because I don't want to have to fight again."

Even now, Gabriel lied to her about his real intention. He wasn't sure if Olivia was going to betray them or not. That's why he lied about his real destination as well, naming the Axin Kingdom instead of the Arecia Empire. That way, even if she betrayed them, there was no way that anyone could create trouble for them. 

Olivia didn't comment, though she certainly was surprised that Gabriel told her where they were actually going to know. She wondered if this guy really trusted her.
