Leonard Churchill, however, seemed as if he had heard nothing, standing silently in place.

Indeed, events seemed to be unfolding in the very direction Sam least wanted them to.
The vampire Kole soared on his fleshy wings, his eyes flashing a chilling light at the sight of Leonard Churchill and Sam below.
He did not take the two Second Tier card masters seriously, but killing them would waste some time.
On the other hand, Vera Williams was getting farther and farther away.
Once out of Bolton Town, the Wilderness mine spread in all directions; if she got far enough, it was doubtful she could be found again.
With this in mind, Kole spared the two men one more glance, snorted coldly, and said, "I will spare your lives for a bit longer."
With that, he flapped his wings and turned around to chase in the direction Vera Williams had gone.
"Damn it!"
Furious, Sam watched the enemy fly away, cursed angrily, and struggled anxiously to get up and chase after.
