CHAPTER 1364 THE TWO PATHS TO BOSSANIA

After Nathan and company arrived at the North, he instructed Fang and the rest to head back to the North Army's headquarters. He, Colin, and the Elite Eight, on the other hand, headed off to one of the North's most famous cities -Bossania.

As the North's previous capital city, Bossania City had a really rich history. It was also one of the few cities in the North that was flourishing.

There were two reasons as to why Nathan hadn't been anxious to head back to the North Army's headquarters and had made a trip to Bossania City first.

The first reason was that Lucifer was here in Bossania City. Nathan wanted to pay him a visit and also give the Leroy Family a rap on the head.

The second reason was that this was where his late friend -- former staff officer Wyatt Holland -- had lived.

Wyatt had been his friend, brother in arms, confidant, and an important staff officer.

He was handsome, polite, and incredibly funny.

Back in the garrison, Nathan had been a cold and decisive character.

Wyatt often gave him useful advice when it mattered the most. Nathan had leant a lot from this friend of his.

Alas, in a cruel twist of fate, Wyatt carried on to contract a disease in the garrison and eventually succumbed to his illness.

Until now, Nathan could still remember how calm Wyatt had been in the face of his death. He had even played a round of chess with Nathan before he passed on.

Nathan rarely shed any tears. Yet, his eyes had been red and puffy throughout that game.

He could still recall how Wyatt had passed on not too long after that game.

While on his deathbed, Wyatt weakly comforted his friend, "Don't be sad. After I've died, I want to you scatter my ashes over the Golden Sands River that runs through my hometown."

"Someday, when you return with victory and hear the bamboo sounds on both sides of the Golden Sands River's ferry crossing, it'll be the sign that I'm looking at you from the other side."

Thus, Nathan naturally had to journey past the Golden Sands' ferry crossing this time in memory of his late friend.

Furthermore, Wyatt had left behind his parents and a sister.

With Wyatt gone, Nathan took it on himself to visit Wyatt's family frequently. He certainly wasn't about to let his friend's family starve.

Just then, Colin asked respectfully, "General, there are two different routes we can take to go to Bossania City."

"We can go by land!"

"Or we can take the ferry from the Golden Sands' ferry crossing into Bossania City."

"Which route would you like to take?”

"We'll take the ferry!" Nathan said without hesitation.

"Understood, General!"

Soon, Nathan and company arrived at the Golden Sands River's ferry crossing.

Nathan didn't use his authority to take the V.I.P. ferry. Instead, he chose to take the normal ferry with other tourists.

The weather had originally been fine and the waters were rather calm.

However, the moment Nathan set foot on the deck, the winds began howling as dark clouds filled the sky!

A chorus of bamboo trees swaying in the wind and knocking each other echoed across the river.

Colin and the Elite Eight came over to Nathan. "General," Colin suggested, "The wind's rather strong out here on the deck. I've prepared a small room for you inside the ferry. Why don't you go in to rest?"

However, Nathan shook his head and remained standing at the bow of the ship. His clothes fluttered and whistled in the wind.

Closing his eyes, Nathan focused on the chorus of bamboo sounds and replied, "No. My friend is here."

"Bring me some alcohol. I want to have a few drinks with an old friend. We have much to talk about."

Soon, Colin returned with several bottles of spirits.

After signaling them to leave him alone, Nathan sat by the bow of the ship by himself as he downed the drinks and spoke to himself. Material © of .

There were quite a few tourists present as well. However, they viewed Nathan as nothing more than a drunkard.
