But Juan and Kyle were not dumb. They improvised their strategy as the servants protected their eyes and aimed for their heads instead.
The servants could not take it anymore and started scattering like lost sheep as they held their heads. The two boys exchanged quick looks and picked up more rocks as they chased after them.
“Juan, I think you’re faster at throwing!”
“And I think you’re better at aiming!
“But we still need more practice!” Kyle concluded.
“Kyle, I know Taekwondo, so I’ll go after them and bind them up. I’ll leave Maya and Nina to you!” Juan figured out an ultimate strategy.
But Kyle disagreed and refused to leave his brother alone.
Beside him, Juan smiled warmly at his brother’s comradeship.
“Dang it! We just ran out of stones!” Juan suddenly realized.
The two quickly turned around and ran in the opposite direction.
Sensing the sudden stop of attack, the servants finally opened their eyes and saw the kids running away from them.
“Ha! Look at your eyes! You’ve got two black eyes like a panda! You look so funny now!” one of the servants laughed, pointing at another servant.
“Pot calling the kettle black! You’re not any better. Yours are all swollen!” the second one mocked in return.
“Geez, my eyes feel so painful. Will I go blind?” another complained.
“Stop talking and start chasing them! The duchess is still waiting for us to hand the kids over!” yet another servant reminded.
“Seriously, these kids are a pain in the ass! They really know what they’re doing, man!” the first one said.
“You can say that to ‘em when you get ‘em!”
Speaking, the servants set out and hurried towards the two boys.
Meanwhile, Juan and Kyle could not find Maya and Nina when they reached the rockery. They looked around anxiously, wondering if they had lost their way.
“It’s either they’re lost or they were caught,” Juan speculated as his gaze wandered around the rockery.
“Nina’s there, they won’t get lost,” Kyle replied.
“It’s difficult to say what’ll happen with Maya around,” Juan said.
“Why not we call them? Nina has a smartwatch,” Kyle suggested as he bent down to look at every nook and cranny.
Juan called her and they got in touch in no time. Nina told him their location and the boys ran off right after they found out where they were.
By the time the boys reached, they were surprised to see there was no one else in the spacious room except for their sisters. “There’s no one else here?” Juan queried.
“Yeah. No one’s here, that’s why we came in,” Nina answered.
