Capítulo 270: Five days

After Lyner failed to secure Alex he returned to where Niel and Dan were with a hearty smile on his face. The look on Lyner's face made Niel think that he had successfully rescued Alex, but when he saw that Alex wasn't around he looked at Lyner and asked.

"Where's Alex?"

Lyner who was still thinking about the upcoming battle between him and Richter, momentarily forgotten about the crisis the country was in, even about his failure in rescuing Alex. When he heard Niel's question Lyner snapped from his daydream back into reality.

"I was unable to rescue the kid. Don't worry too much, the old man won't kill him or anything. So I still have a chance to save him." Hearing Lyner casually say it like that, made Niel take a few seconds to register what Lyner just said.
