"I will wait for you with the report back at the camp, so I hope you can take care of the mess here," Leon said before hurrying away and disappearing into the darkness.
'This guy…' Leynel thought, watching how the young man left for as long as his eyes could follow the strange traveler's back.
The commander then took a deep breath, and held it in his lungs for a while, before rapidly exhaling it all out.
'This guy really is something special,' Leynel thought to himself before turning his eyes back and focusing on the problem at hand.
There was no way for Leon to fulfill the mission Leynel bestowed him within the span of a single day. He expected that in the best-case scenario, he would have to wait for at least two full days and nights before there would be any news back from him if there were to be any at all.
And yet, against all of his expectations, this strange traveler and quasi-mercenary proved to be far more capable than Leynel's wildest imagination.
