"You seem to be having fun again, Gary…
…perhaps I can join in?"
"...Now who in Hel is this, Your Highness? A friend of yours?"
One of the men lifted Gary by his collars, looking him straight in the eyes before glancing at Riley,
"Is His Ever So Respected Highness a friend of yours?"
"He was my classmate. But I have already advanced in life, I am a professor now."
"...What?"
Riley only glanced at the 5 men, before just casually approaching them as his eyes were only focused on Gary.
"I am trying to find your mother, Gary," Riley then stood in front of Gary, completely ignoring the fact that someone had him literally by the neck,
"Do you perhaps know where she is being kept?"
"Look at us when we're talking to you!"
One of the men rushed toward Riley, causing the leaves around them to dance violently as they were blown away.
"But I was not talking to you, was I?"
Uh oh.
