”Yes”
”Did you find the King of the Kingdom of Dawn, Appen Moya?”
”We've checked all the corpses and found no one that looked like hiation, a captive said he had seen Appen and his knights fleeing the battlefield According to hiht with the the coat of arms of the royal family, and the others anted to join thehts However, he also admitted that he was not sure about this for he saw this frodom of Daas in chaos”
”Where did this captive see this?”
”Inside the old Holy City”
”There's a strong possibility that it was Appen” Edith shrugged her shoulders ”It's ie ar with the army, where do you think he was?”
”Ugh at the head of the procession?” Eagle Face expressed some uncertainty
”To be accurate, he should be behind the vanguard units,” she answered ”As the old Holy City has no walls, the first one getting into the city will collect the most trophies in the robbery In order to make sure that he was the first to be there, he uard to eliminate threats and ensure his own profits”
”Do you hts were already inside the city before the Bomber Action started?”
”Well, yes That's why Appen survived the air attacks launched by Maggie and Huh time to identify the situation and choose the correct direction to escape I have to say, he was quite wise to put aside his dignity and act decisively to escape in disguise” Edith slightly raised the corners of her mouth and quickly licked her lips

”No, it's of no use,” she interrupted ”On such a broad plain, it's not easy to catch him unless you know his escape route in advance We succeeded in the ae of their retreating habit and herd mentality If they had chosen to escape to the wheat fields on the other side of the road, ould not have achieved such an easy victory”
”” The deputy battalion commander did not refute this but still looked very vexed at his failure to catch Appen
”You don't need to bla for us” Edith smiled
”Why?” Eagle Face raised his head in interest
”It's complicated to explain You only need to know that fear is contagious and when the people of the Kingdom of Dawn realize how for” The Pearl of the Northern Region paused ”Appen Moya will have a difficult time”
Knowing that she did not want to explain further, Eagle Face stopped pursuing the o to occupy the old Holy City?”
”No, it's ih to fulfill this task” Edith denied his suggestion without hesitation ”Let's wait Miss Maggie has gone to pick up a key person for this task With her help, we may be able to seize this city effortlessly”
