Chapter 127: 118

Princess Mia’s Quick Switching

“We have a problem! Huh?”

It was the other boy from earlier who was back. He froze when he saw Mia standing with her wrist unbound. He was even more confused when he saw Sion. Sion reacted quickly and gripped his sword. The boy noticed this immediately and tried to turn around and run. However, Sion was faster. He bashed him on the back of his head.

There was a loud thud and the next moment, the boy was on the ground. From down the ground he can see Sion towering over him and his sword pointing down on him.

He looks so pitiful.

Mia felt sorry for the boy. She can empathize with the boy’s fear as she had also experienced being pointed at by swords.

Wait a minute! This is the punk that told me to jump! Hmph! Good riddance!

Mia immediately changed her mind after remembering the current events. Mia’s mind switches quickly. She is not one to dwell. She grinned when the boy was made to sit submissively.

Lynsha knelt in front of the boy and asked.

“What’s all the fuss? What do you mean there is a problem?”

“Lynsha! What the hell is happening here…”

“I’ll explain later. Answer me first.”

“Ah, ah … Actually, it seems that our comrades started things already. They occupied the local guard station and stole their weapons. They are now heading to the mayor’s house.”

“What!? Wasn’t it supposed to be the day after tomorrow? Was it Jem’s instructions?”

“No, it was at your brother’s discretion. He said our comrades who are facing the army can’t wait any longer. So, to help them, he went to the town square to gather support and raided the guard station.”

“Ugh, that does sound like what my older brother would do.”

Lynsha facepalmed and let out a frustrated sigh.

“So what’s the damage?”

“It was hardly a battle. There were about ten garrison soldiers in the station, but it seems that your brother was able to gather hundreds of people from the square. The guard leader ran away. Your big brother is amazing.”

“Yes, yes. That person’s mouth is a genius. If he becomes a king, everyone will line up to pay him taxes.”

After another deep sigh, Lynsha said.

“Well you have heard him. To the mayor’s house then. Let’s go.”

Huh?

Mia was surprised by Lynsha’s declaration, “let’s go.”

Ohoho, silly girl. Did you just assume that we will follow you? That is a dangerous place, I’m not going to step foot there.

“Well, I think it’s pretty dangerous …”

Sion takes up Mia’s side.

That’s right. Even Sion thinks…

Mia turned her gaze and saw Sion’s face… What she saw was a face brimming with excitement. An unpleasant premonition slowly dawned on Mia.

“But if you really want to go, I’ll go out with you.”

He declared in a powerful voice as he put his hand on the handle of the sword.

“Eh? Oh, but …”

No, no, no one said I wanted to go!

Before Mia can voice out her insistence, Sion noticed her suspicious look.

“What? Is something wrong? … Hm… That’s right…”

He nodded as if he understood Mia’s confusion.

“You don’t have to worry about Keithwood and the others. The truth is I also want to join up with them first. But you have created this chance to explore the inside of the Revolutionary Army. I won’t let your hard work go to waste.”

“My- my hard work…? No…no… no worries.”

“Now, let’s go. Let’s hurry.”

Mia stood up, urged by Lynsha’s voice.

I am not allowed to say no, am I? I can’t refuse anymore?

Mia guessed that they were past the point of no return. And so she switched thinking immediately.

Well, if there is Prince Sion, I am sure he will somehow protect me worse comes to worst. There is also the younger sister of the leader of the Revolutionary Army here, so maybe it’s not that dangerous?

Indeed, the good thing about Mia is that she switches quickly. She is not one to dwell. And she is still curious. The feeling of something that doesn’t add up was still there. She intends to find out the reason for that.

“By the way, I’ve been wondering from a while ago, who is this Jem?”

Sion casually asked as they were walking.

“One of our comrades of the Revolutionary Army. My brother said he met him at the bar…”

“Did he tell you to kidnap Mia?”

“Yes, he said that she is a hindrance to the revolution.”

“He must be a companion of those who attacked our carriage… But.”

Sion remembered the boys earlier. He was able to overpower them easily. The clearly haven’t been trained in combat.

They’re a far cry from the assassins on the wagon.

His thoughts were interrupted by the change of scenery. A waterway and a dock spread out in front of Mia and others who passed through the back alley. Although it was small, there were many boats docked. A bustling market was visible.

“Oh, I didn’t notice it earlier… The river we fell from actually flows through here.”

Mia voiced out her observations.

“That’s right. This place seems like a transportation hub.”

Sion agreed with her.

“Maybe it was the man named Jem who chose this town as the stage for revolt?”

Sion continues to Lynsha, who looks puzzled.

“If so, he knows how to choose the right place to attack. This kind of calculated maneuvering matches those who attacked the wagon.”
