One would have thought he would have gone blank with anger, but Leolde remained calm. Instead of running around the capital, he had come to a place where people could be sheltered and where it was not a lot of people .
The place where Leolde was now was called the old city, where people lived, but not as many as in the current city.
It was also a place where there were vagrants, criminals , and smugglers . In fact, even in the game, the old city was a den of criminals.
Leolde knew that if they wanted to kidnap people and hide them, this would be the only place to do it.
And his prediction was right e Regulus and Leila had been kidnapped by a criminal organization that had smuggled them out of the Empire.
The reason why they were kidnapped this time was to secure Leolde at the request of the Empire. Their lives are guaranteed, but they winll not hesitate hurting them a little.
(Now that i am here, how do we find the two of them? I don't know how much the enemy knows about me. But if they knew that Regulus and Leila my brother and sister, then they must know my face.)
(I'll have to move as little as possible to avoid detection. I don't know what they'll do if they find out that the knight is moving. I have to save them quickly.)
Leolde, who was using his exploration magic to sneak around the old city, felt as if he was playing a stealth game.
However, even if he could figure out where they were, he couldn't tell their identify . Leolde continued his search steadily.
How long had he been searching? Leolde searched all over the old city. However, there was no one seemed to be the organization that kidnapped Regulus and Leila.
(Isn't it here?).
Leolde became impatient little by little. It might be better to leave the old city and cool down. As he was about to leave the old town, he heard voices talking.
" We can't play with that women "
". Don't be stupid. If you mess with the hostage, the boss will kill you."
"But that woman is a real gem. It's not every day you get to taste it, so may i at least take a bite.:
"Just one bite?"
Hiding his presence, Leolde landed behind the men who had been talking . He was about to give in to his anger, but he stopped just short of calling out to them
"It's--"
He stunned one of the men who looked back at him with an electric shock, then clamped down on the other's and slammed him against the wall.
"'Answer the question . If you raise your voice, I'll snap your neck."
The man pinned against the wall by the deadly energy nodes his head with tears in his eyes.
" The woman you were talking about earlier was the one you kidnapped from the dukes?"
Looking at the man noding his head desperately, Leolde smiles ferociously. At last, he had found them . Leolde strangled the man and glared at him.
"Lead the way. Or I will kill you.""
"I'm not a ......, . ..."
He took his hand away from the man who was struggling to scratch his algae. The man, who had been lifted up, landed on his ass on the ground. He coughed bitterly as he was strangled and looked up at Leolde with tears in his eyes.
"I'll tell you something. I can kill you any time , If . try to do something strange. Then you'll be dead."
"Ha...... ...."
The frightened man leads Leolde to the place where Regulus and Leila are being held. The man led him to the edge of the old city, and they arrived at an old church.
"Here it is: ......"
"Here, ......? You're not lying, are you?"
"No, I'm not lying! This building has a basement. There's a..."
"Thank you. Go to sleep."
"Agh. ......"
The man who led the way, Leolde shot him with electric shocks to put him to sleep. As he walked into the church, he found no one inside, but when he examined the church with his exploration magic, he detected several reactions.
"The number is ...... one, two, three--"
When he counted the magical reactions he had detected with his exploration magic, he found a total of twelve. Some of them were solid, but there were two that were perfectly stuck to each other.
Leolde guessed that these two were probably Regulus and Leila.
He want to go help them right away, but there seems to be only one entrance to the basement. If he continue to enter, he will be immediately noticed and the two of them may be in danger.
That was something that had to be avoided. Leolde thought desperately, but it was not a good idea to take it too long. He was also concerned about their mental state. They must be very worn out.
If so, the only way out was to force a breakthrough.
In order to prevent damage to the them , Leolde activated the earth magic with great care. He made a hole in the basement of the church and entered.
He headed straight for the place where Regulus and Leila were probably holded . In doing so, he was noticed by the enemy, but Leolde had already reached the place where they were.
"Thank God. ......
He breathed a sigh of relief when he confirmed that the two were safe, but their eyes were tinged with hatred.
"What good about that ...... is that because of you ...... do you have any idea how much me and Leila were hurt because of you!"
"I'm ...... sorry. But getting out of here is our top priority right now. After that, you can blame me all you want."
"Hey, hey, you think you can get away with this?"
The moment a voice comes from behind him, Leolde body is blown away. Slammed into the wall, Leolde exhales heavily and gets his hands on the ground.
(When did ...... this happen? I let my guard down.)
"You're Leolde Harvest. You've saved me a lot of trouble. I didn't expect you to come all the way here . Even though they don't like you , you didn't leave your brother and sister , did you?"
"Of course not. They are my precious brother and sister. I won't allow them to be hurt any more."
"Hahahahaha! This is a masterpiece! He's going to help his brother and sister who spat at him for coming to their rescue. Oh, what a nice brotherly love. .................. It's repulsive. Hey, just let Leolde live and do what you want with the rest."
At the man's words, the men behind him shouted with joy. The men seemed to be looking forward to the coming tragedy.
"You think I'm going to let you do this? I will not allow it!"
! You guys can do whatever you want with his brother and sister right in front of him."
As if they were waiting for the man who laughed in disgust to say something, the men jumped towards Regulus and Leila.
One would have thought he would have gone blank with anger, but Leolde remained calm. Instead of running around the capital, he had come to a place where people could be sheltered and where it was not a lot of people .
