Volume 6 Chapter 78 - Serious loss (1/2)
Hafra looked at the sky outside the shop and he revealed a look of worry.
Prado had been summoned by the Lord City Lord at noon and it was already past two in the afternoon, but he still wasn’t back, which made one curious.
Even if it was said that the Lord City Lord was impressed by Prado and kept him for lunch, he still should have come back after the meal.
It was impossible that the Lord City Lord would like him so much that he kept him for dinner too, right?
“Uncle, what do we do now?” Nasus on the side gave a yawn before asking Hafra this.
Hafra looked at him and waved his hand, “You don’t need to stay here, go and check the Magic Car. If it’s all good, we might leave this place tomorrow or the day after, so we can’t let anything happen to the Magic Car.”
Nasus curled his lips, “What is there to check? The Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s things are always good, there wouldn’t be any problems.”
“I told you to go, so go!” Hafra glared at him.
Nasus reluctantly mumbled something before getting up to go out.
When he came to the door, there were several big figures that walked in and blocked the door of the shop.
Nasus was stunned as he looked at them. He suddenly noticed that these people were wearing the armour of the city guards and he couldn’t help being surprised.
Then he was surprised to find that he recognized the one leading them. It was captain Wayne who had been guarding the gate when they came to the city.
Captain Wayne looked at Nasus before looking at Hafra who had just stood up in the shop.
After looking at Hafra, he gave a nod and waved his hand, “It’s them, catch them!”
The city guards behind him suddenly came forward and grabbed the two of them.
“Hey, what are you doing? What did we do wrong? How can you catch us like this?” Nasus shouted out while struggling.
However, he was just a teen, so how could he fight against the trained city guards. He could only shout a few times and couldn’t do anything.
Although Hafra was also surprised, he was more experienced and was calmer than Nasus.
He looked at captain Wayne who was leading them and gave him a questioning look.
Captain Wayne looked over and shook his head.
Hafra understood and called out to Nasus for him to be quiet.
Captain Wayne waved his hand and the city guards locked up those two.
In the two horse carriages of the city guards, they headed to the city guard’s barracks in the south of the city.
Then after sending them there, they were locked up in the same cell.
“Uncle, this…..what is going on?” After the city guards left the cell, Nasus finally couldn’t take the fear in his heart and he asked Hafra this.
“Calm down.” Hafra patted his shoulder and took out the sesame seed cake from lunch that he had concealed in his chest to give to him, “Eat something first and calm down.”
Nasus looked at the sesame seed cake in a daze. Why are you having me eat at a time like this? How can I eat this!
“Remember, you have to be calm no matter what happens. Then you have to remember that no matter what happens, you have to fill your stomach. If you have strength, at least you can react when it’s necessary, understood?”
Seeing the serious look on Hafra’s face, Nasus gave a nod that didn’t seem like he really understood.
After thinking about it, he took it and broke off half for Hafra before swallowing the other half. He was chewing while he was in deep thought.
Seeing that Nasus had calmed down, Hafra looked at the sesame seed cake half in his hand and gave a nod of praise.
This nephew of his being able to listen to his words and calm down in this situation, even giving him half of the sesame seed cake made him very satisfied.
If they could safely escape this time, he might really train him as a successor.
After a pause, Hafra forced the other half into his mouth and chewed it while he was in thought.
Although captain Wayne hadn’t told him much earlier, he could still realize something from it.
First, captain Wayne had him not act rashly because today’s matter involved something big, so he had to be careful
This reaction actually made Hafra much more assured.
Because it meant that they wouldn’t encounter any serious consequences, so there should be some leeway.
Otherwise, captain Wayne’s expression would have been more serious.
Finally, captain Wayne was willing to tell him this, which meant that he was willing to help him.
It was that in this matter, he couldn’t help all that much, but it was important that he could have this attitude. It meant that this matter wasn’t that serious, otherwise captain Wayne wouldn’t have dared to participate as a captain of a small city guard group.
