Kapitel 399: Vermin

"BANDITS!!" 

Alex suddenly stood up and ran to the door of the carriage he was on. The mistress in red was already out and had a small sword on her hands. 

The caravan was currently going through a large jungle that was not part of the southern forest. Thus, there weren't strong beasts here. However, that also made it the prime spot for bandits to attack.

He looked around and saw a commotion in the front; People had already started fighting. He could hear clashes of swords and spears from the front. He decided to go help them. 

"Stop!" the woman in red stopped him. 

Alex got a little agitated this time. Not even letting him help the people in such a time irked him the wrong way. "What?" he asked annoyed. 

"Stay back here and protect the back. The front is likely just a distraction. The ones who will do the looting will come from the back," the woman said.
