Fighting the Two Assassins

The two assassins were just waiting for the beasts to kill Clovis and the others.

"Oh, oh! There is so much ruckus over there," said one of the assassins while relaxingly leaning on the tree. 

"It's going to be impossible to escape from that. Thanks to the sudden visit of Skylark's princess, we were unable to do anything to him for a while. However, we have to thank the mayor for chasing them away."

"Well, he's not chasing them away." 

"He is simply too ignorant. He doesn't know that if he wants to protect them, he should have kept them close. Now that they are in a different city, they won't have anyone to help them. In addition, the shield bearer that they have recruited…" 

"According to the investigation, that guardian is a leech, whose strength is subpar. He might be good enough to protect the people on the back, but he will become a burden in an emergency situation like this."
