Battle of Wits

"Hmm?!" Qiel narrowed her eyes when she noticed another movement from the ruin's direction. "Wait, isn't that…"

Legolaz had first split the group into two. The first group entered the ruin with him while the second group maintained the security of the area.

The second group hadn't made any other moves, showing that they were waiting for Legolaz. Additionally, since a few hours had passed, the sky had begun to turn dark. Dimitri would become even more powerful during the dark. It was true that the brighter the light, the darker the shadow. But when it was dark, it would be hard to differentiate the shadow, making him able to blend in.

That was why Qiel had to be careful during the nighttime. It was clear that Dimitri was planning to make a run for it.

Qiel drew her bow, aiming at the ruin. Although she didn't plan to destroy the ruin, she would definitely shoot if Noel was there. Even Dimitri would have a hard time protecting Noel in this siege.
