When Leon entered with his maids and knights, he realized the ruckus he caused earlier had attracted attention from the nearby patrol knights and stationed guards.
Armored footsteps echoed sharply from both corridors. Royal knights appeared one after another, forming a tight half-circle around Leon's group. They pointed their weapons at them.
Leon's eyes fell on one particular individual among them. He was wearing a red cape with the royal sigil.
'He must be the captain,' Leon thought.
The captain walked in slowly as the guards fully surrounded them. He looked at Leon's crest on his coat. His wavy long red hair matched perfectly with his eye color.
"House Valentine," he barked. "Explain yourselves at once."
Leon raised an eyebrow. 'Why does it feel like I know this guy?'
Leon brushed off the thought.
The captain jabbed the end of his sword closer, pointing it at Leon's direction.
"You will not move until we receive an answer."
