However, it was clear that Vincent Wolf's words had no effect. The puppet kept its gaze firmly locked on Vincent, slowly inching its way towards him. Moreover, other puppets who remained in the hall slowly turned their heads towards him too.
"Retreat!"
Seeing the situation turning sour, Vincent took Miyazaki Saeri's hand and fled, several dozen puppets trailing behind them.
Fortunately, Vincent had mastered displacement skills, and with a rapid movement, they managed to escape the crowd of puppets and hide in the only room that had its door open. And quickly, he shut the door with a bang.
It was then that Miyazaki Saeri voiced her confusion.
"This isn't right, our goal was to get to the meeting place, why are we playing around here?"
Only then did Vincent remember, and he let out an embarrassed laugh.
"Right, I almost forgot about that. But have you figured anything out, about where those people went to reach the meeting place?"
