This outcome was quite outside of Leitoz's expectations.
Amidst the battle between orcs and the undead, a human man appears.
This confuses Leitoz; he cannot grasp the connection.
But Rhesa wouldn't make up a human as an excuse at this moment.
The sound of gathering armies comes from outside the door, leaving him no time to consider these questions.
Looking directly at Rhesa and the others, he said sternly, "Little girl, how about we make a trade? Maybe you won't have to die."
"Let's hear it!"
"I won't kill you. You three just hide in my room, and if the undead win, you have to protect me and my people. I won't bother about the others." Leitoz looked Rhesa in the eye and said every word clearly.
The three of them were taken aback by his proposal.
So, Leitoz had not brought them here to test some potion.
He was simply adding an extra layer of insurance for himself.
