Is he acting this careless because they are both from the Sound Kingdom? If so, then that's stupid. After all his mission right now is to destroy the Mist Kingdom. Why would King Daichi act so friendly?
"Elder Bryan was it? He sent me word you were coming here; he told me to aid you if you get caught," King Daichi said.
Huh?
King Daichi sighed, "Don't misunderstand. I won't help you. And I've warned Orthez already about your little group. But, I only told her to watch over you, I didn't expose the plan. Her keeping an eye on you limits your movements. By exposed I'm talking about, the public. It would be bad for you if people found out right?"
So, in other words, he's not really on anybody's side. If it harms his wife and Lyn, then he would expose them in a heartbeat.
