And so... they seized the opportunity to leave Black City.
"Uncle!" Ayala quickly packed the items at their base. With a flick of her wrist, two daggers appeared in her palms. "You were gone for so long. What happened now that you've returned?"
"Now is not the time to discuss this." Carl grabbed a piece of black cloth and swept the items inside. "Let's leave first and talk later."
He had indeed become much stronger, but he didn't believe he could take on the City Guard, especially since there were also mercenaries in the city. The Knights alone numbered no fewer than ten. And then there was Hal, one of the top Knights! Now, with the experts of the City Guard and mercenaries underground and the city in great chaos, it was a good opportunity to leave.
"..." Ayala paused her packing briefly and then nodded. "Alright!"
"By the way, there are still some things underground."
Even a clever rabbit has three burrows, so she naturally had prepared more than just this single hideout.
