No one would have expected that seventeen assassins would set off at the same time, leaping through the sky.

"Block their path!!"

Upon the captain's command, the assassins all leaped from the top of the building together.

As if they were invincible, they jumped directly from several stories high.

As two mice were walking, they turned to see the synchronized Leap of Faith, causing the white mouse following them to stumble over a stone and kneel in worship.

Seeing this scene, the captain's malevolent intent was revealed instantly.

"Knowing that the princess is pregnant, and still making her run and jump like this..."

The concern for the princess had already exceeded the appropriate emotions of subordinates. The captain concentrated both his love and anger in the air, performing a second jump.

In a flash, he caught up with the two mice, landing in front of them.

In the center of the square, watching the brown mouse attempting to drag the white mouse along, the captain clenched his fist.

"Enough, stop this!!"

Seeing this, the brown mouse jumped in surprise, but continued to pull the white mouse along.

At the same time, the white mouse waved its hand, signaling that it couldn't run anymore.

Kneeling at the center of the square, surrounded by a group of fierce uncles, the white mouse first removed its mask.

All the assassins, who had been running with all their might, fell to the ground at the sight of the truth revealed by the puppet disguised as Elyse.

The golden shining hair turned into a deep blue sea color. It wasn't Princess Elyse, but someone else.

Played by the puppet that wasn't Elyse, the assassins all lay still on the ground.

"I... can't go on..."

"It's okay, Sister Hilmirya, you've done well."

The brown mouse didn't immediately help up Hilmirya. Instead, it propped itself up with one hand on the pillar in the center of the square, the other hand on its waist, revealing a cunning smile while taking a break.

The brown mouse looked triumphantly at the assassins. Their smiles made the captain, who also smiled, feel an impulse to punch them.

Having understood the truth, all the assassins looked at the captain.

"Is there something you'd like to say?"

At the brown mouse's provocatively innocent question, the captain shouted in anger.

"Where... where did you take the princess?!!"

Played for fools, the captain's fury was now uncontrollable.

The assassins who were once hidden in the shadows suddenly became visible.

Meanwhile, Elyse, who had always been visible, instantly disappeared into the shadows.

"What princess? I have no idea what you're talking about."

The mouse's mask could change its expression with internal mechanisms. However, the brown mouse standing before them only maintained a smile, which made the captain even angrier looking at the same face.

Disregarding manners, the captain walked up and knocked off the mouse's mask with one hand.

"What are you up to?"

As it turned out, the true identity of the mouse wasn't Cyclone. It was Cabellus.

Hilmirya and Cabellus had dressed up as mice and run all the way to this designated spot.

The captain stared at Cabellus.

"Who... who are you?!!"

"What... what do you mean? I have no idea!! I am the renowned poet, Card yaaa!!!"

Suddenly pulling Cabellus by the collar, the captain left Cabellus bewildered.

"Where is Cyclone Theodore?!"

"What... what disease... Polodo?! What are you talking about?!"

While being dragged by someone else, Cabellus yelled.

"Help!! Guard!!"

More and more passersby gathered in the square, and a group of court guards arrived from a distance.

With Cyclone and Elyse now missing, it was not the time to stir up trouble.

The captain gave a signal to the subordinates, and the group of assassins simultaneously threw a smoke bomb, disappearing from the square.

Under the sky, the captain shouted at the magic crystal in his hand.

"Quickly find them!! They must be nearby!!"

"Captain!!"

While giving orders, another team member reported.

"We've found Cyclone Theodore!!"

"Are you sure this time?!!"

"No mistake! He's driving a carriage and heading north at full speed!!"

"Chase him!!"
