The Alterans grouped tightly together with the shieldsmen out, trying to stop the hundreds of slaves and citizens from successfully mobbing them.
In terms of numbers, the enemies had outnumbered them several to one, and this was not even considering that many Alterans had already been weakened from the battles—some were even carried by their teammates already!
Fargo relished at the sight of them being pushed back. With the wave of slaves, their way had been cleared of Alterans, clearing the path for them. They decided to take advantage of this distraction to get to someplace safer.
Althea, who had a bird's eye view of the battle, naturally saw this. However, she couldn't abandon her people here to run after him. She simply sent an order for Fufi to take note of Fargo's scent so they could run after them as soon as they could.
Anyway, standing tall at a height and looking down at the scene on the street level, she had to take on the commander role.
