"You sure have some nerve, Boris, eyeing the treasure sword I accidentally acquired during my escape journey the moment my companion and I arrived in Selva, repeatedly causing trouble, robbing us on the road, and even daring to use a sedative to rob my room.
Now, you falsely accuse me in front of these esteemed individuals, spewing slander. I can't help but ask, is it us, the foreigners who risk our lives fighting the Kantadar people, who are suspicious, or is it you, who disappeared when disaster struck and fled alone, who is suspect?"
Leon's heart stirred as he said this.
Right, how did this guy manage to escape and report to the authorities?
That night he had been beaten unconscious by the three of them and thrown down on the dirt road at the base of the hill, which was the very route the Kantadar Cavalry took when they arrived!
So Leon had thought that this ruffian must have already been killed by the enemy.
