Judging from the high-ranking insignia showcased proudly on his helmet and chestplate, the man at the front of the group was clearly the head of this whole operation.
"Slowly and without resistance, you will move your hands into the air, your palms facing outward."
Staring at him for a moment, I felt like I could see the expression behind his mask.
"You have five seconds."
This guy...
"I will not hesitate to give everyone here the order to kill you on sight if you fail to comply."
―He wasn't lying.
"You will come with us quietly and peacefully. 5..."
As a senior official of the Order, he wouldn't come under flak for killing me if that was the necessary decision.
"4..."
He could very well pull the trigger right now and be done with it.
"3..."
Shooting me in the head or chest would not hinder him in the slightest.
"2..."
At most, the other officials would probably regret going so easy on me earlier on.
"1..."
Unlike the Wardens, the Order doesn't 'need' me, after all.
