At first, Giovanni had something to say and took Heil with them, but then, when he realized that Xyle - the young master of the Maximus' duchy still holds the count, that's when he realized that they needed to know where Xyle was placing him
So without any further hesitation, they went ahead to the secret place, only that Xyle had enough of the people following him from his back
"Would you four stop hiding and come out already?"
Like a busted opponent, the four people walked silently behind Xyle, who was currently holding the count. After the footsteps stopped echoing, that's only the time that Xyle turned around with one raised eyebrow and thin Ed his eyes as he looked at the four people bowing their heads like looking at the ground instead of Xyle
"Now, care to explain?"
