249 Swine

The two of them were sitting in the square enjoying a rare leisure and intimate moment.

Suddenly, Rody heard loud noises coming from a distant corner of the square. He saw a few Royal Knights arrive looking vigilant. They were looking around carefully as if they were searching for something.

"Look." Rody gave an eye signal to Mouse.

Mouse smiled gently and covered her mouth. "They probably noticed that their horses had gone missing and had come out to look for the horse thief." She paused for a moment then explained, "There is a horse market in the vicinity of the capital. Quite often, there are some horse thieves selling the stolen horses. Those knights who have lost their horses probably are heading there now."

Rody laughed and pulled Mouse along. They went to their horses and quietly left the square in the opposite direction.
