"Please, please, young master, don't do that. We'll return the boy to you right away," the beggar hastily agreed before even finishing his sentence, promptly shooing away the two who were holding Feder.
Gali, without any hesitation, strode forward, Feder trailing behind him, and Gali didn't forget to throw a disdainful glance back at them...
As Gali and Feder gradually disappeared around the corner at the end of the road, Henry, who had paused for a moment, allowed a smile to reappear on his calm face.
Just then, a horse was rapidly approaching Henry from a distance, with a woman's voice calling out from atop, "Move aside, make way!"
People on both sides of the road hurriedly cleared a path.
Hearing the shouts and the rapid hoofbeats behind him, Henry instinctively turned around to see what was happening.
However, by the time he turned, the horse was already upon him.
