Even as a Martial Apprentice, he was blindingly fast to normal humans, as a Martial Squire, normal humans were so slow in his eyes that they were no different from statues. It was as though he gained the ability to slow down and freeze time. Knocking him out without anyone noticing was an extremely simple and easy task.
The crowd didn't even suspect a thing.
"He drank himself out."
"The young master is a wretched drunkard who abuses his power."
"Well, at least he didn't hurt anybody this time."
Those words affirmed Rui's deductions about the man. He was clearly a local and a resident of the area, most certainly not a newcomer Martial Apprentice associated with the Lowminers. It seemed even his drinking and harassment weren't uncommon.
Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed that.
