As she saw them playing, visually learning from them, from the corner of her eyes, she saw three people, fully covered in black attire, heading towards the three kids playing, and feeling the grim aura radiating from them.
She turned serious as the three musketeers maintained their distance, looking for the right opportunity to strike. They kept walking slowly, creeping up on the ignorant kids. She saw through their masks; the musketeers were grinning, as if thinking they had already gotten away with potentially kidnapping the kids.
As they were only a yard away, Elesch lunged towards the kids. She became a barrier between the kids and the three musketeers. They were taken aback, snarling silently at her.
