He and the Dragon Guard were now sworn enemies, so the remnants of the Dragon Guard would not let him go easily.

“We’re still not sure for now.” Grace shook her head. “We were ambushed that night. However, I was prepared and already moved you to a different vehicle. Fortunately, everything went well.”
