Night Time
Right beyond the capital city.
I was standing outside while telling instructions to the group. There was a carriage and a group of mercenary with me. Inside the carriage was Hanako Sakurai, who was going to her home right now and the mercenaries here were my people that I brought to protect her.
"Listen, if you guys even get a scratch on her anywhere, I'll come back to haunt and rip your asses out, alright!"
"YES, SIR!" They all screamed in unison.
"Yeah, why don't you scream a little louder and tell everyone that you are carrying an important person with you." I say as they quietly murmur, 'No, sir'.
The journey of going through the night was for her safety, anonymity. It would be better if no one knew when or which place she was going through and night time was the best time for it.
It also worked that she didn't announce to anyone or even told the royal family that she was going, which I will take care of for her.
Hm? I'm showing too much care to her?
