"Oh? Looks like you don't like them either?" Daniel laughed loudly when he saw the baby dragon's reaction, rubbed its head a little, and once again used his spiritual senses to check on the people tailing them.
Still, he didn't stop there and kept walking. It didn't take long until he reached a forested area, somewhat abandoned and empty.
They were far enough from the city that no matter what happened, nobody would notice.
"Well, this should be a good place, right?" Daniel looked around and spoke with a smile on his face, though the mockery in his tone was clear.
From the shadows, seven different figures slowly emerged. All of them were wearing military uniforms, clearly commanders or captains of guards.
Their expressions grew dark and ugly, obviously because they hadn't expected this young man to notice their presence.
"What's wrong, scared?" Daniel laughed again, but they didn't respond. Instead, they drew their weapons, their auras surging as they prepared for battle.
