[-AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE RED LOTUS COVEN TERRITORY-]
As soon as the twin vampires left for their given task in fetching Princess Sylvia, Mercury tried to sneak a powerful attack on Lady Charlotte.
Right at the moment when Lady Charlotte's attention was distracted, Mercury made an attempt to sneak a powerful attack on the vampire blocking his way.
Knowing Lady Charlotte, she would try her best in neutralizing or blocking Mercury's attack, the loyal knight of King Avalon planned to free his allies while Lady Charlotte would be preoccupied.
Mercury had no concern nor attachment towards his allies, but he had to save his allies and minimize any losses.
Because for Mercury, any losses in his team or platoon would mean a tarnish in his reputation. He wanted to be a perfect and reliable knight for his vampire king.
