Even if the people of this world discovered it, they might find it hard to comprehend such a phenomenon right away.
Two living beings right in front of their eyes, they can’t see any differences.
But not Leonard Churchill.
In his previous life, there were all sorts of hologram images that could be so realistic they were almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
As soon as he noticed something was off, he knew what the other party was up to: “You have recorded a thirty-second clone image? Hahaha, how many life-saving devices has young master brought with him in here…”
After observing, he was already sure how those two fellows had fled.
A hologram was left in place, and no demon in the surrounding area noticed. It’s probably some ancient artifact again.
The battle and everything was but a “decoy” from start to end.
The real aim was to mask Young Master Kane’s escape!
Leonard smirked to himself, even he had been fooled.
However, this was the final decoy.
The best personal guard was sacrificed for the final desperate escape.
“We can’t let the young master getaway that easily…”
Thinking about this, Leonard chuckled coldly.
After identifying a direction, he decisively stopped paying attention to the battlefield.
He vanished quietly among the tree branches.
Although he didn’t know when Young Master Kane had run away.
But the entire fight didn’t last half an hour.
Those two would have to move slowly to avoid the demons.
And Young Master Kane was not quick to begin with.
Leonard pursued them through the forest, quickly leaving behind the circle of monsters.
He didn’t sniff any human scent.
There were only two of them now, hiding their tracks was much easier than marching with an entire army.
Plus there was the presence of a professional guard.
Mistakes like scent, footsteps or such were almost impossible.
Leonard searched in the forest for a while, but he didn’t find any suspicious places.
Was he going to lose them?
Leonard had no leads, so he stopped.
He took out the hand-drawn map, and started examining it carefully.
“Let me think, where would Young Master Kane run off to…”
“The Sawtooth Forest is full of demons everywhere. Although you have high-class stealth equipment, the risk of being discovered is still quite high when you’re towing a dead weight…”
Leonard analyzed it.
A guard towing a dead weight would definitely avoid confrontation wherever they could. They had no room for trial and error.
So they would have to pick the safest, long-lasting place.
Thinking about this, Leonard shifted his gaze to the “Wailing Abyss” in the northern part of the map.
The monsters were mainly clustered in the south.
He had been to the Wailing Abyss before, that kind of brightly lit rocky abyss, few demons would be interested in going down there.
Find a place to hide on the cliff, that way the chances of living until the third day would be quite high.
Considering this, Leonard estimated the path the two would have chosen to avoid demons earlier, and he too followed in the northerly direction.
He decided to try his luck.
Even if he guessed the direction where Young Master Kane and his companion might have fled.
The northern part of the Sawtooth Forest was still enormous.
Leonard was clear that the probability of him finding them alone was slim.
After a while, he stopped.
He roughly estimated their speed. If he had guessed the right direction, they should be around this area.
But as long as the other party was hiding in stealth mode all along, it was almost impossible to stumble upon them.
This time, Leonard didn’t plan on using the demons either.
The other party only consisted of two people,
He thought of a better method.
Other people in a choice between life and death would definitely lay low and not show their heads.
But not everyone is like that.
For example, the young master of a high-ranking nobility family.
Leonard understood human nature well.
After observing for a night in the cave the day before, and the stories he had heard from bar patrons and information merchants, he knew quite a bit about Young Master Kane.
He was certain that young master was not one who could bear humiliation and heavy burden calmly.
So, Leonard decided to switch his approach.
Force them to reveal themselves.
Thinking of this, Leonard began to yell at the top of his lungs in all directions in the forest.
“Young Master Kane, isn’t the offspring of your Lionheart Family said to have the courage of a lion? Why are you hiding like a coward now? Is this the kind of weaklings the Lionheart Family breeds? Oh, the Lionheart Family, disappointing indeed…”
“Don’t you want to know who wants to kill you? Step forth, I promise on a man’s honor, I will let you die knowing your killer.”
Indeed.
This approach is just a smack talk!
Through understanding, Leonard already knew that the honor of the nobles in this world was above all else.
Those old-school nobles had an almost pathological sense of honor.
His words directly insulted the family honor that Young Master Kane prided himself on, and the superior noble lineage.
If Kane was about to die, he might bear with it.
However, if death was not imminent.
With the overly hot temper of the pampered young master, he would certainly be unable to bear it.
Leonard was sure.
If the young master heard it, he would come out.
Because he had been observing all along, and he was sure that the young master had an extremely rare Space Teleportation Card!
The young Master wasn’t a composed tough character; he had not pissed himself after several near-death experiences, being so nonchalant could only be due to having a backup plan to get out.
He just didn’t want to use it easily.
Leonard’s guess was spot on.
In Kane’s hands was indeed a Space Teleportation Card.
This was something his father had gotten from a powerful group in Dragon
City at a great cost “borrowed” as a last resort.
Yes, the card being precious was one reason..
