Running Away

After I saw the emergency quest window in front of me, I understood that they had found out about the trick I used, which was expected.

The guards began to approach me with their spears in hand. I could see Alex discussing with his brother, wearing an angry expression, but I knew Bravis's opinion wouldn't change since I had gained a quest.

I wasn't in a good situation. The guards had undergone a lot of training and knew how to handle problems like me. I, on the other hand, didn't possess many combat-related skills that I could use… but there was something wrong. The quest difficulty wasn't as high as it was supposed to be, which was quite surprising to me.

If I were to face a high-elf, I would be killed without being able to do anything, and the guards could kill me if they joined hands as well, yet the difficulty wasn't that high. With a little bit of thinking, I could find the reasons for what might be the decrease in difficulty.
