His name was Doug.

And the man chasing after him was—they were nobody of importance. They were a random Guardsman who saw him filching and now they were in the midst of a chase. His blood pumped as he pounded on the ground, pushing his legs to move faster without toppling over and losing his balance. And for a Level 5 Thief, this was actually a little harder than he thought and that was despite him getting [ Nimble Steps ] as his most recent Skill.

The darkness was already on its way and overlooking the city, as the day gave way into the night but the Guardsman didn't give up at all for whatever reason.
