Chapter 25: Geo
The fight between the kill squad consisted of rogue capital guards and the Crimson Guards’ protection of Leonard intensified as time went by.
Needless to say, the pressure that the Crimson Guards received was increased by multiple folds.
After all, Leonard had come to the open, effectively being no different than a fat juicy meat in front of a hungry bunch of hyenas.
"Crown Prince, please return to the carriage." One Crimson Guard with two crimson shield medals on his armor pleaded.
"I trust the Crimson Ward Division." Leonard simply responded. The Crimson Ward Division, which was the division that these guards hailed from specialized in defense. To simplify, they were in the same division as Curtis, known for their barrier magic, ward runes, and protective gear.
Of course, there was another nickname for this particular division: The Living Wall.
"I’ve recognized you." Leonard continued and mused, "Code name Geo. Earned his medals through the flames of war and proved himself worthy by paving the road for his fellow comrades. Are you telling me that you can’t protect me under the assault of these rogue capital guards?"
When Geo heard his code name being called out by Leonard, he was left in a daze. Their code name and division were never brought up to Leonard before.
According to Spencer’s words, the Crown Prince wasn’t interested in it, and there was no need to pressure the latter to learn all of this.
’Sir Reed has revealed our information to the Crown Prince?’ Geo was stupefied and realized the implication.
"Yes, Crown Prince, you can be assured that nobody can approach you." Geo’s eyes flared up and determination surged forth.
Since Spencer made such a decision, then it only meant one thing. The shift in authority and control of the Crimson Guards was beginning.
