Kapitel 246: Encountered

Far in the distance, the leader of Leo's and Mira's pursuers was observing the wreckage on the branches of the trees. He looked ahead into the vast darkness before turning around.

"We will be splitting up here. They will eventually get back onto the road, so the two of you will go ahead at full speed. We will track them through the forest. Kill anyone except the girl," he said, pointing to two of the people on horses.

He released the aura that was suppressing the horse he was in, making it let out a small neigh and raising its front legs a feet. Other than that, it didn't do anything else, staying in its place in a well-behaved manner. The other two persons about to go into the forest with their leader did the same.

As soon as control over their horses was relinquished, they all dashed into the forest without saying any words. The plan was only implied, yet the two left seemed to be well aware of what it was. They took over control of the horses left behind.
