The Regressed Mercenary's Machinations

Chapter 604

Ghislain, who had been staring blankly for a long time, finally spoke with a perplexed expression.

"How did Alfoy manage to catch so many?"

It wasn’t just anyone else but Alfoy, who had achieved an overwhelming feat. Even more than Ghislain himself, a master of pursuit.

"—A slave understands a slave’s heart, and only a fugitive knows a fugitive’s thoughts."

"...."

Come to think of it, Ghislain had never been a slave or lived on the run out of fear. Not in this life or even his past one. The closest he’d come was a strategic retreat during a disadvantageous situation.

Even in those cases, Ghislain’s focus had always been on figuring out how to kill his pursuers rather than simply escaping. He had never set a pure and straightforward goal like “escape,” as Alfoy and his friends seemed to have done.

"—Then he sent word everywhere, telling people to come to their location under the banner of joining forces to resist."

"...And people believed that and came?"

"—Alfoy and Vanessa even gave speeches in the public square, demonstrating some magic. The rumors spread like wildfire, and people believed it was genuine."

"Couldn’t they tell it was a lie?"

"—Vanessa only did it because Alfoy told her to, but Alfoy... he was serious about it. Ah, crap!"

"What? What’s happening now?"

Dark suddenly began narrating the current situation in a hurried tone.
