They all wonder if the hostage was still alive due to the way he was tied to the horse and with the way the fourth prince is galloping along the way, the hostage would certainly influence some damage. With the fourth prince gone, Jason calmly rode his horse with a smile on his face as he can't stop thinking about what he is going to do after his return and when the guards greeted him, he couldn't hear or answer them since he was already lost in his imagination.
"Isn't that the fifth prince's personal bodyguard, what is wrong with him"? Asked one of the guards who greeted him.
"I don't know, maybe he hit his head or something" reply another guard.
"Shhhh, if you don't want to be beaten to death, then I advise you keep quiet. According to the news I heard, Sir Jason is ruthless and shows no mercy when someone crosses him. He even fought with the fourth prince out of annoyance" said a guard who happened to catch his fellow guards gossiping.
