From MC's Perspective:
After subduing the second subordinate Otto, we left the stall. Otto doesn't plan to take these junks with him. If he does it will arouse suspicion.
Otto and Patrick are talking. They are going to use their friend's connection to cross the border. Just as they were about to leave the border.
Otto paused his gaze. He perked up his ears. Seeing that Patrick and I exchanged glances. We knew his magic power. He could hear distant sounds and conversations.
My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. I valued his magic power. That's why I selected him.
Otto's expression turned serious. He did really hear the conversations between the guards.
"Master, hurry up. I just heard crucial information. The Dark Faction has sent a Magic Lord Level team to inspect the border," Otto said in a serious tone.
"Good, let's go to your friend's place," I said to him.
"Otto, we can't afford to waste anymore time," Patrick said.
Swoosh!
