Chapter 427 - 427: Departure to Lyrue (1/2)
With the morning showing itself, so does some sour faces that show up with it.
”I can't believe it...” [Farhah]
””We feel betrayed”” [Lara, Nara]
”Have anything to say, Charlotte?” [Singa]
”Why me! You should ask those three first!” [Charlotte]
”You're equally guilty in our eyes” [Savel]
”Yeah Charlotte, how dare you leave them behind” [Ash]
”Brother Ash! That wasn't even funny” [Charlotte]
”Somehow, it irritates me further” [Mara]
Instead of gathering in the orphanage, we gather in front of the castle, since last night incident still hasn't wrap up just yet. Even the other orphans, alongside their respective directors, gather around to say farewell. But, that isn't all there is to it
”Please... Save him... Save my husband, Aries” [Demon Queen]
”I fail as your replacement, and I fail as paladin to protect my lord... So, I ask you as well, please save the King Druser” [Female paladin]
”That we will. You two should focus more on sniffing out should there be any other imposters among your ranks” [Aries]
”The same go for each and every one of us” [King Leogris]
”This will be tough” [Queen Rinz]
”But that, we should” [Haliza]
There might be other whose been replaced by the fake doppelgangers, and that's why, we need to weed them out before they pose a much larger threat, and the one that will help with all of it is
”Do your best” [Zerolith]
”You as well” [Htilorez]
Those two looks like a twin now. Htilorez will teach the magicians how to perform similar experiment she done to detect the fake doppelgangers
That's for the one that will go back to their respective home countries. As for us
”Are you sure about it?” [King Estel]
”That, I am” [Diana]
”This will be the first time all fourteen of us going on a mission together” [Kara]
”You forget Qis, Alaric and Co” [Ash]
Qis come closer and whisper
(It's only us two, since the other vampire guards will stay to help sniff out the fake doppelgangers) [Qis]
~Nod~
I make it less obvious that I nod due to the information Qis just told, and pretend that she was threatening me should I do anything to Diana, for which all of them, from Saintess Rumia to Charlotte know that it's just a ploy (even when they didn't know the true content of the whisper), but
”Make sure you protect my daughter with your very own life!” [King Estel]
”Father!” [Diana]
”I will” [Qis]
(He became dense when his favourite daughter is involved) [Fourth Queen]
King Estel didn't take the clue. Both Qis and I were simply taking precaution, since we just wanted to make sure that the fact Qis told me about the vampire guards leaving behind will not spread. It might sound stupid to take this much precautions, but better be sorry rather than letting those rats escape from our grasp. King Estel however, didn't get the clue, or maybe simply refuse to take the clue. I can't blame him. A princess and somewhat a thug like person like me spending time together, yeah, I will react the same should I am in his shoe if I'm being honest
”Well then, take care” [Khamishah]
”All of you, make sure to come back home safely” [Mira]
”Just make sure you save those three and yourselves above all else” [Naoto]
”Sis is right” [Kanji]
~Screech~
