Seeing Rabst return emptyhanded but with a deep frown, Zach could already guess that his pursuit hadn't been very successful, despite being gone for hours.
"Did you find anything?" Still, Rabst couldn't have been gone that long only chasing the underworlder. He must have spent some time looking around as well.
"Not really." Unfortunately, Rabst hadn't found anything.
"That bastard was slippery and fast. He also seemed…unnatural."
"Unnatural?" Zach asked, unsure what Rabst meant by that.
"Mm. He was strong and fast and all, but he was weird. Even when running at full speed, he didn't leave any footprints or much of a scent. But that wasn't all. It seemed like he wasn't used to his own strength. He took corners badly and almost stumbled and crashed several times." It didn't make sense. How could someone so clumsy manage not to leave a single trace behind?
"A traitor."
"What?"
