The gates of Mayor Bertram's manor loomed before Alex, imposing and foreboding, but such weak and underwhelming defences would not deter him. With a determined stride, he knocked loudly on the gates, ignoring the shaking guards on either side of it, who had their spears pointed at him, but were too scared to move.
"My goal is the Mayor and his ever so loyal butler, if you step aside now, there won't be any unnecessary and easily avoided casualties." Alex spoke in a cold tone to the guards, prompting a quick reaction from them to drop their spears and make a run for it.
The moment they heard Alex's cold tone, they knew he wasn't joking around. They had known him from his first entry into Monty town, and they were creeped out when they saw how he dealt with the two guards who tried to extort him.
