After half an hour of riding their Pekko at full speed, occasionally stopping when Pikko slowed down at Liana's request, they arrived at the Armand estate.
After climbing down from their mounts, Buddy and the other Pekko were already excited and dashed toward their pen, kicking up a cloud of dust that made Javier cough hard.
Liana, who had just climbed down from Pikko, exhaled softly.
"Young master?"
"Hmm? Yes, Liana?"
"Can I request… a few hours to rest?"
"Eh? Why?" Javier asked, glancing at her sideways.
Liana gave him a side glare and whispered in a low voice, "Whose fault do you think this is? Hmm?"
Javier rubbed the back of his head with a sheepish smile. "Sorry, sorry. But… who's going to accompany me today?"
"I won't be long. Just two or three hours of rest is enough." Liana bowed slightly, her voice soft. "And since you won't be going outside, I'm not too worried about that, with Gloria, Felicia, Delya, and Mimi around."
