The Alchemist faced the man walking towards him slowly, his hands carefully tucked in his pockets as he faced the matter at hand.
Such a stance seemed to present itself as something that deserved to be approached with caution by those around him.
The guards from the town, seeing the man already exhibiting such a cautious attitude,
couldn't help but start to doubt their understanding of the situation even further.
The matter didn't seem to have a simple answer, as one might have expected.
It seemed that he had already clearly recognized in his heart what the situation before his eyes was about.
Therefore, any other thoughts or actions that were too inappropriate regarding the issue were, at this time, not at all beneficial, and needed to be approached and hesitated over with caution.
The captain of the guard then met the other's gaze without any hint of evasion.
