Chapter 16 - Chapter 16 Enemy or Ally

Present time

Randolph snored loudly. His voice was quite disturbing to his surroundings. However, people around him at this camp were sleeping peacefully looks ignoring that sound. Because. all people who gathered here aren't commoners. They've come from a special expedition called the Elite Guardian Alamove Army. That association is one of the elite troops from the Alamove kingdom which contains the five strongest girls in the royal country which is called the Five Schone Krieger.

Sarah Aina and Agneshia are two of the five members of the Five Schone Krieger. Sarah Aina class is an Enchanter, while Agneshia is the owner of a rare class, Samurai.

"Noise Reduction Spell "

Sarah activated the skill a few hours ago when Randolph's snoring became more frequent.

At one of the largest camps, several people are seen talking on a round table with several chairs around it.

"Ahh... that man snoring sound's quite disturbing. Didn't Miss Sarah already give him the Dispel Spell a while ago? Why he hasn't woken up until now?" asked the deputy commander-in-chief whose power was equivalent to the members of the Five Schone Krieger.

"Maybe it takes time, if you are curious you can ask Agnes for more details"

Agneshia became embarrassing to hear Sarah's words, and the deputy commander frowned while looking at Agneshia's panicked face.

"Mmm...then what's our next plan, Charles?," continued Agneshia trying to change the subject.

Charles is the deputy supreme warlord and is also respected in the Alamove Kingdom. Although he has blonde hair with side parting hair and a thick mustache adorning his face that makes him looks-wise. But, if he wasn't wearing his official clothes, people wouldn't know if he was a high-ranking official officer because of his clumsy attitude. Charles Von Veyta is the owner of a rare class called Magic Highlander. Magic Highlander is a swordsman class that can have the ability to multiply the sword it uses. These swords can be used for self-defense or vice versa.

"Then how about tomorrow morning we head straight back to the capital, then what do you two think we should do with the boy?"

Those three pairs of eyes looked at the corner of the tent. They were thinking hard about what steps to take on Randolph.

Sarah offered a suggestion.

"How about we leave him to another division of a royal army, the interrogation team. After that, we can decide what our next attitude should be."

Sarah's suggestion was immediately approved by Charles. As Agneshia also tried to nod her head in agreement as well, Sarah added a suggestion with a mischievous smile on her face.

"I'm pretty sure that main warlord will not allow it easily. Therefore, I suggest Agnes as the guarantor of the boy. After all, you were the one who made the boy fainted"

Agneshia did not put up any meaningful resistance. She didn't want to waste time just putting up a pointless fight. She agreed to her senior's request.

"I am working as a babysitter ..." Agneshia complained while lowering her head.

A few hours ago Randolph already woke up, but because of his high level of sensitivity, he still tried to appear unconscious. He doesn't want to draw attention which makes him trouble. Of course, he tries to find out what happened to him after he fell unconscious, silently.

"Tap...tap...tap"

A couple of footsteps were heard approaching the tent where Randolph stayed..

"Creek..."

Someone entered that tent, approaching Randolph. He then sat down in one of the waiting chairs in that tent. The expression on his face was solemn and serious and a high level of killing intent was emitted from him.

"I know you were conscious a while ago. One of the spells I activated on your body reacts when your mind returns to normal"

After this man had told Randolph everything about his skill, a notification came from the hijack Voice of The World sounded in Randolph's ears.

"Spying Eyes trap skill has been disabled"

"I'm not accusing you of being a spy. But as a soldier in the country I love, I must be wary of foreigners who will enter my country. If I think you're dangerous, I can kill you right now"

Randolph opened his eyes. He realized the figure in front of him had a clear reason for speaking like that.

"Creek..."

The door to the tent where Randolph was resting opened again.

"Ah...uh...oh...why are you here Mr. Charles?"

Agneshia looked embarrassed to see Charles in the tent used by Randolph. At the same time, Charles' facial expression which looked dark and scary, disappeared and was replaced by his usual cheerful expression and clumsy demeanor.

"Hoho...I'm checking on the condition of this boy, Miss Agneshia. It seems that she has regained consciousness. Then what is Miss Agneshia's interest here?"

Agneshia stammered. She forgot why she came to the tent, "Ah...eh me? I also want to know his condition. Isn't it if he is already conscious we can come back to capital sooner"

Charles did not comment on the reasons given by Agneshia. Then, he got up from the chair he was sitting in, lightly patted Randolph's shoulder and then whisper something to him then walked out of the tent.

"I hope you're not a dangerous person"

Just as Charles had opened the tent door slightly, Agneshia grabbed Charles' robe, "...before that, I beg you to keep this a secret from Sarah, I beg you..."

Charles scratched his non-itchy head. He nodded his head at Agneshia several times.

"The Icy Samurai is feeling awkward toward me. It's a rare occasion. I've never seen her like that before, hahaha...but that kid is suspicious. He..." said Charles whose facial expression quickly changed.

When Charles has not finished his sentence, Sarah suddenly came to him. Sarah Aina approached Charles. There was no cheerful expression on her face like before.

"Charles, it looks like we should head back to the capital city soon. There are reports that the targets of the Seraphim have been spotted in Lumaville. A big storm is coming. We must prepare ourselves"
