The chase had gone from wild mountain ranges to towns near battlefields and even through major cities with strong defenses. They would immediately burst in and out without a moment's delay, without committing the slightest offense.

Countless sharp-eyed observers were shocked beyond coherence.

"Yes... If I'm not mistaken, it should be."
"It's definitely him!"
"It can't be wrong!"
