I found lodging at a local inn and spent a week in the city.
As I bit into the loaf of bread in my hand, I continued staring at Harman. We were currently inside my rented room.
I asked first. "How many kids have been abducted so far?"
"Fifteen in total, your highness."
According to the intel, those Black Order bastards had been making their moves every three to four days, sometimes with the gap of a week or so before we arrived at the city.
Fifteen kids already? And that's within the time-span of a month too.
Those bastards... forget about being secretive and whatnot, it was pretty much safe to assume that they were openly declaring themselves.
I thought that for an easily scared bunch like that, their actions so far had been a bit too over the top.
"That's a lot... I heard that there are a lot of kids from various noble families living in this city. Considering that, isn't this city's security way too lax?"
