Chapter 106: Rebellion Rhaineus [1]
At her command, the members of Rhaineus Team 2 dropped their weapons and fled deeper into the alley.
The guards immediately pursued them.
Once they were gone, I lowered my sword and knelt beside the girl behind me.
'Looks like they only used a mild hallucinogenic drug. Nothing too dangerous—she'll recover soon.'
Anyway, I'd protected the girl who'd nearly been kidnapped, and now Team 2 was being chased down by Skedum's guards.
Just as I'd planned.
'No—better than planned. Everything's moving much faster than expected. At this rate… I might even stop Team 3.'
If I headed to where Team 3 should be right now…
"Alex."
"Ah, Lady Eleanor."
"I brought the guards like you said."
Eleanor approached me as she spoke.
"This the girl they tried to kidnap?"
"Yes, that's right. But there's still one more."
"How do you know that?"
"I happened to overhear those green-masked people talking earlier."
It wasn't exactly a lie.
