Chapter 60: 15 year old Inglis and Chiral's Royal Knight Academy (10)
「……!?」
At the sound of Inglis’ voice, Leon turned around and made a surprised look. It was Leon, after all. There was no mistaking it. He was also accompanied by the lightning beasts that surrounded him.
「Is that you, Inglis girl……!? You’ve grown even prettier……!」 「Why are you here……!?」
Leon should have been under the Ironblood Chain Brigade now.So, does that mean that the Ironblood Chain Brigade is scheming something in the capital?Is it an attempt to interfere with the transaction with the Highland that Faris mentioned, after all?I wonder if the Slasher is part of their plan.
However, besides Leon, there was another man with a bizarre appearance that was positioned behind him. It was a mysterious person with Runes all over his body. His face was hiding behind a silver mask, making it impossible to find out his profile.
The Knights that halted Inglis and Rafinha warned them of a slasher who assailed people with Runes. He told them it was a Rune Eater. This person seemed fit to that description. Looking at their positions, it appeared that Leon was confronting the slasher.
「Explode!」
The lightning beasts roared and exploded, generating so much light that made anyone unable to open their eyes.
「Kh……!」
