Chapter 121 - A party in rogue

Third person POV

 A few days later, since the Elai party couldn't be seen now, the ruling Passato family declared them as fugitives. As of now, the rogue party couldn't be seen at all, prompting Nicholas and George to send soldiers and guards to hunt them down. This was the topic of the latest issue of the newspaper by James Kuehne, the owner of a small newspaper and publishing firm. James, a young man with brown hair and purple eyes, is a Renad with an S-ranked ability known as Printer. This allowed a user to print anything on paper or any stable surface for printing with mana. James also had a standard printer with him in his reincarnation in this world. He currently lives in the capital city of Rossley in a tenement housing in his small firm.

 So, one Paldau morning, Russell was waiting for some passengers in the streets of Rossley when he saw a boy selling newspapers nearby. Curious about the presence of newspapers in this world, Russell walked up to him and asked, "Hello there, kid, are those newspapers?"

 "Yes, sir," replied the boy, "latest issue for today. Only 2 silver coins or 5 copper coins for one copy. Do you want one?"

 "Yes, one, please."

And so, the boy gave one copy of the latest issue to Russell, and Russell paid 2 silver coins for it.

After that, Russell said thank you to him and went back to his bus.

 Before his set schedule for his route to Garion City, Russell read the latest happenings in that newspaper, only to come across the decree by the ruling Passato family declaring that the Elai party was potential fugitives from the law, much to his surprise. "These guys are so dumb and stupid about running away from the law," Russell's mind said in disdain.

 After a little bit, Russell hopped in and closed the door, before leaving the area and towards Garion City, the capital of the Principality of Jaleno. Also, he intended to check out who was printing and publishing that newspaper after arriving back in Rossley later. Furthermore, for some reason, Rai, Ria, and Kelly wanted to come with them for the day alongside John. Azalea, accompanied by Nathan, was on a quest inRalto Village within the Southern Plains' Territory of Sapaq. Since he wasn't a registered member of the Emerald Guild, Russell was allowed to decide the time for quests, even allowing him to allow his party members to decide on quests for themselves while he was busy in his job as a bus driver.

 At the same time, Aren Krähenblut had managed to trespass and intrude into the territory of the Southern Plains and was now in his secret base in the form of a country house outside of Garion City. What was his evil intentions now?
