Chapter 94 (1/2)
The Marquis' Son's Frustrations
Georg zu Eigel's point of view
”No good I can't find her anywhere” The sailor who had barged into the roorim atmosphere, the people in the room were visibly worried
There was a search conducted throughout the house We even looked through the garden and in the city, but Miss Mary was nowhere to be found
I bit my lips hard in order to calm my frustrations Outside, the sun had already set, and it was getting darker every ht?
Is it terrible? Is it cold? Are you in pain?
Just thinking so made me uneasy
”Mary… Where on earth are you?” Lady Bianca, Michael's sister, whispered Her voice filled with despair
Michael stood by her side, his ar her as all colour drained froet a hold of yourself”
”But Michael Mary isn't the type to abandon her friends and go running off so else must have happened”
”That's true… The princess wouldn't pull soht up in so unexpected… We should assu ht over there Should we have issued a request for help after all?”
The sailor—I believe his nael, beca It's hard to iine that Mary would choose to run away on her oill If she got involved in sohly likely that she was abducted
But here lies the problem: Who the hell kidnapped her?
”Has anyone found the man ith Miss Mary yet?”
”…No luck”
Paul shook his head with a bitter face Lady Bianca and the crew also had troubled expressions
The man as supposed to accoained everyone's trust
”If we're going to search for Her Highness, then finding him is critical If we are to explain the circumstances of her disappearance, then this person you call Wolf is an iitive warrant should be issued, considering he's the person whothe culprit!? That's absurd!” Bianca protested
”Even if you say that, he was the only person around Miss Mary when she wentOn top of that, he vanished as well The circuh”
”That's…” Lady Bianca couldn't give a reply and words got stuck in her throat
”There were no signs of any fight that occurred The vase may have fallen, but the rest of the room was still tidy Mary probably lost consciousness, but it is hard to believe she didn't resist at all”
”But… That guy was really doting on her, and no h horse, I for one don't think that was an act”
”Yeah He looked after her as if she was his daughter I can't believe that he would ever hurt her”
The sailors started talking about that Wolf guy
For'Well then, in that case can you tellto say itthat Wolf's mysterious departure is completely and utterly unrelated?”
”…”
In response to my words, everyone became speechless
A heavy and painful silence fell upon the room
I didn't know Wolf I didn't even know the days that they spent on board together, so I couldn't understand their conflict
But exactly because of that, I could see things that they couldn't
There were a great number of people in the hall and around town It would be incredibly difficult to sneak into the mansion to kidnap Miss Mary and a burly man such as Wolf and not be seen by anyone
As such, that meant there were only two possibilities; either Wolf carried her off by himself, or Wolf collaborated with another person, the kidnapper
Rejecting those two options because of senti I would not allow to happen
If that guy had kidnapped Miss Mary, then he would have betrayed the trust she had in hiive so with a voice full of vigour came a tap on my shoulder
Michael, who now stood before us, unexpectedly lowered his brow as he watched ht words, but I could tell that he was full of worry
It seeitated The sailors were as well
I took a deep breath to distract s, and I felt my mind calmed down a little
”We're all worried for the princess We shouldn't be arguing” I sighed
”Yeah, sorry” With a bitter sh you thought of this seriously, I let my emotions come over me and dismissed your ideas”
”Not at all I'ry I'm sorry”
It wasn't perfect, but the cold air finally dispersed
”For now, let's summarise our situation Does anyone have a ht be able to narron the path that the kidnappers could've taken”
”Yes, I think I have one… I'll go get it”
After I asked, one of the sailors complied
It was apparently in a different room so he headed for the entrance, but once he opened the door, he took a step back with a surprise in his voice
”What's wrong?”
At the same time that Paul asked, so me, widened our eyes as we stared at the person alked in
His whole body was inclined to one side, leaning against the wall of the hallway Various bandages could be seen under his cloak, and blood was seeping through froh to walk, but his eyes said otherwise They shone with a sharp glint, like an angered beast's
”Where's Mary?” With a strained voice, that person, Klaus von Belmar, quietly asked
”Klaus! You're not supposed to be walking with a body like that!”
”Don't push yourself! Your wounds are not completely healed!”
Lady Bianca and Michael hastily rushed in to help but Sir Belh! I don't care about that More ihness?”
