Chapter 127
Nick Told Me About What Was Happening
“Of course, I regret all of that now. But never mind that. It was when I was at that store…”
“Hah… You better not do something like that ever again… And then?”
“Yes, I know! …And then these armored soldiers came out from the back of the store in order to suppress us. …Just like that one…”
Nick said as he pointed at Nicholas.
He was wearing iron armor, had a sword on his belt, and also wore a helmet. It was very obvious that he was a soldier.
If these men looked the same, then they were likely soldiers as well.
“And then what did you do?”
“Me and the others tried to fight them, but then this man, who I assumed was the owner, came out as well… And then he said this. ‘We’re here doing business with the approval of a noble house. What you are doing is a bold attack on their house.”
“Hmm… In other words, he was threatening you, saying that there would be retribution from the nobles?”
“Yes. We didn’t want to get caught when we heard that, so we ran from the place.”
I see. That was quite similar to what just happened here…
