Chapter 157 Penny Vs Taylor Bolos 2
The two that had appeared before her were people she recognized very well but was extremely surprised to see.
After all, one of them was a child of Baron Bolos Baraka.
It was Taylor Bolos, and the Second was Annie.
The Crazy tracker that acted as his right hand man and sex toy.
Both of them were on Soul beasts horses. The common kind.
Compared to others, this beast was not so fast, but then again, she had journeyed on foot.
Compared to the soul beast, she was the slow poke.
Penny frowned.
Neither of the two, were persons she wanted to see.
Taylor Bolos smiled at her.
Unlike her, that was wearing tattered, dirty clothes from running through a farm.
Taylor Bolos was in his usual dignifying clothes Worthy of the status that he carried as a noble.
He wore a knee long black as night leather jacket well fitted for his body structure.
It had high bold collars with well defining edges.
Apparently, the tailor made extra effort toake sure that this attire looked to make him look more intimidating.
With the kind of maturing looks that Taylor Bolos possessed, one might say that the leather jacket did it's job well.
It was well buttoned up with buttons that all carried the insignia of the Bolos family on them.
An insignia that could only be carried by a member of the family or a long time follower that have proven their loyalty to the family.
"Lady Penny, it would seem like you are a bit of a fair distance away from your room." Taylor Bolos smirked at her.
Penny in the other hand, frowned tightly.
She knew Taylor calling it a fair distance was him just trying to be sarcastic.
However, she was in no mood to have fruitless batter with him.
She was already so far from the Bolos Manor and too close to her home.
There was no way that she was going to allow them go back.
Taylor Bolos came down his mount.
Patting it a bit with one hand, he offered the other to her.
His mannerism was impressive.
He really displayed the dignity as expected of a noble of his station.
In fact, except the fact that he did not bow, he looked like he was asking her to dance with him.
As one would expect, Penny shook her head.
Subconsciously, she even took a step back.
"No, no, no. I suggest you don't do that. We all know here that you do not have cultivation. Only against such a useless core beast," he patted his mount, "you were not able to escape. Do you think that you will be able to escape Annie who is a trained Cultivating tracker?"
As he said this, Penny's eyes subconsciously looked over to Annie.
Annie had a broad sadistic smile on her face.
It was as if she wanted Penny to run while she hunted her down.
It was easy to guess that Annie wanted the satisfaction of the chase.
She wanted Penny to thrill her.
This realization scarred Penny a bit more, and her knnes felt like jelly.
She wanted to move but found that she couldn't.
She had heard enough about cultivators to know that the reason she couldn't move was because of Annie's soul energy surrounding her body and holding her in place.
Taylor Bolos walked forward. He was neither too fast nor too slow. But very step he took, especially as the leaves under his feet rustled, was quite scary.
"You know, I must say that I am quite impressed. In fact, if a person like me was not in that manor, you should have well escaped by now. But you are really quite unfortunate that I also leave in that manor."
He smiled at her, "do you want to know how you were caught?"
This question pulled her attention to him, her frown deepened.
"It was not exactly easy, but it was not hard either. I first had my suspicions about you the moment your entire life pattern suddenly changed. But that was not the problem. The Problem laid in the fact that it was too orderly. For a noble lady in a foreign house hold, that is very suspecting, Don't you agree?"
Taylor walked about her as he explained.
"And so out of sheer curiosity, I decided to look a little more in this new schedule. You see, nothing in that Manor happens without my knowledge of it. Not even the stupid life style of my brother and my sister. Everything, I make my business to know. After all, information is power.
"There was also another flaw to your plan. Talor pointed at Annie. You did not factor her into your calculations."
Penny raised a brow at this. However, she was a very smart girl. She quickly understood what Talor Bolos meant.
After all, Annie was a tracker. Her senses were very incredible.
She smelled the herb in the meal and prevented Taylor from eating it.
"Even though I was not aware of your plan, it was easy to see that the moment the food was poisoned was the moment you were going to make your move. After that, I just had Annie track you with With all that she had heard and what Annie was capable of doing, she knew that she had been bested.
that." He pointed at her shoulder.
Annie smiled as she explained.
After Penny was suspected of attempting an escape, Annie used her blade to make a small cut on her shoulder one time when she was in the farm digging the ground for edible roots.
Aside the poison attribute of her Soul blade, there was another.
It called 'Marker'.
It marked the soul of whosoever was cut by it.
As long as the person had not gone too far, it was very easy for Annie to find the person's location.
It was like a convenient soul radar for tracking Prey.
Once more, Taylor motioned for Penny to get on his mount.
With all that she had heard and what Annie was capable of doing, she knew that she had been bested.
She looked at Taylor Bolos right in the eyes, "one day, I'll make sure I pay you back for this..."
