Chapter 325: Heading Towards Secure Ground

"Stay with me, Your Majesty," Rolan instructed as he glanced over his shoulder. Behind him was a trail of people consisting of the staff of the safe house, Alexander, and Sevastian.

They were covertly heading towards the back door where they'll exit and link up with the squad of Imperial Guards.

To ensure the emperor's safety as well as his citizens, they have to maintain radio silence from here and out to avoid getting located by Black Hand operatives.

Rolan reached for the doorknob and rotated it, causing the bolt to slide. He then slowly pushed the door open, and he peeked outside cautiously.

He didn't see anyone in sight at first. But at the other end of the alley, he saw a group of men donned in a Ruthenian Imperial Guard Uniform armed with submachine guns running towards their position. 

Rolan raised an eyebrow at the feat of the Imperial Guards. They were fast, causing him to smile in satisfaction.
