章節 258: Survival of the Fittest

Erich immediately hogtied the sage once he had stunned the man, before throwing him over his shoulder. The fugitive could not even scream at Erich because he had bound the man's mouth with rope. This was a measure done to ensure that the prisoner did not attempt suicide by bitting off his tongue.

Thus, Erich carried the man off, as he ascended the mountain to get back to his comrades who were providing overwatch for him.
