In just a few seconds, everyone's mind was all over the place.

They all thought that these Baymardians had come for William's head.

For them, they believed that there was no way in hell that Landon knew about William.

Even their masters had taken some time to meet William.

So what more of these people who were all the way over in Baymard?

Yup!

In their eyes, William was already dead meat.

Warrant Officer Basil looked around for any sudden attacks, before walking towards one of the vehicles and opening up its door.

'Shreeee!'

'Bam!'

The door was shut.

And like the true final boss that he was, Landon calmly got out of the vehicle and slowly walked towards his men.

He stood in front of them like a mother hen protecting her chicks, and looked at Eli and Connor with a gentle smile on his face.

"Brothers... It's been long hasn't it."

--Silence--

The entire place fell into deep silence for a minute, as everyone was waiting for Landon to speak more on this sudden visit of his.

"Little brother, it really has been long... Hasn't it.

So, what brings little brother here?" Eli asked curiously.

"Oh?

Elder brother... Over the past few weeks, I've really been missing out on being one with nature.

So I decided to take a stroll with some of my men along these parts.

But who would've known that we would end up here instead?

Ahh!... Brothers, I feel so blessed now that you are here.

Who would've thought that a simple stroll would lead me right to you all?

Sigh... In the future, maybe I should take more strolls very often.

That way, I can see you all very often." Landon said while resting his hands on his chin and nodding his head..... As if agreeing with what he had just said.

'Tch!'

The enemy warriors couldn't help but feel that Landon was somewhat shameless!

What bloody stroll?

Did he think that they were 5-year-old children?

This was a secret base alright?

So how could one just stroll in without any prior knowledge of the place?

Heck!

Even their masters needed time to find this location?

So how was it easy for anyone to just stroll into the place?

And how come this stroll of his ended up in a completely different region within Arcadina?

Please!

A stroll as what one took within the same town or even city.

But these people had travelled through different cities, towns and villages.

In short, they had left their empire and stepped into Arcadina's territories.

And they dared to look at them in the face and say that their sudden appearance here was because they were taking a stroll?

'Come on bro!

Who do you think that you're deceiving?'

All enemy warriors looked at him and couldn't help but turn cold.

For them, they felt like Landon was belittling them as well as their leader.

So how could they not be mad?

As for William, he tried his best to reel in his laughter while listening to the conversation between Landon and the princes.

As expected!... This cousin of his was truly something else.

Only he had the talent of making his enemies both speechless and angry at the same time.

William looked at Landon's group of men and couldn't help but worry a bit.

Even though they had probably arrived in order to rescue him, weren't they too few to fight?

Sure, William had taken out a good chunk of both Eli and Connor's men... But there were still hundreds of enemy warriors around.

So how were they supposed to deal with the current situation?

His body tensed up a bit when he thought about it a little bit more.

But soon, he quickly calmed his nerve and relaxed his muscles.

That's right!

For Landon to come, meant that he could definitely handle the situation at hand.

So did that mean that had something up his sleeve?

William sat very still and observed Landon curiously.

How was he going to handle the matter?

"Hmm... I didn't know that my little brother liked taking strolls this much!

In fact, your strolling skills might even become legendary in the future.

After all, you're the first person in the history of Pyno, to take a stroll that made you end up in an entirely different empire altogether.

Brother, you're truly great!"

"Thank you older brother Eli.

I too think that I'm great as well.

So there's no need to compliment me so much since it's a fact."

"_"

Truly shameless!

Those were the words that everyone described Landon as.

"Enough!

Since you 'strolled' into this secret base, then you must have also come for you on personal interest...correct?"

"Yup!

Elder brother Connor is indeed smart."

Landon had indeed come here for personal interests... But rather than money or property, he had come here due to the system's mission.

He too was shocked a few hours back, when he realized that it was William that he was saving.

Connor looked at Landon coldly.

"Look here little brother!

I don't like beating around the bush as brother Eli does.

So I'll ask you just once:..... 'Why are you here?'

Speak up! And don't f**kin lie to us!!!"

"Ahh... Elder brother Connor, how can you even think that I would lie to you?

Do I look like a liar to you?

Don't worry, I'll be truthful.

But if you want me to tell you about the reason for my sudden appearance, then you both have to tell me you as well."

"Hmph!

We are just here to detain Cousin.

He had done a lot of terrible things around Arcadina.

So we came here to subdue him."

Everyone listened to Connor lie right through his teeth and smiled wryly.

It seems like these princes all had special traits.

One was shameless, and the other was a good liar instead.

Landon looked at his brothers and smiled.

"Hmm... Brothers, since you all were so honest with me, then I'll also be completely honest as well.

You might not believe me, but I'm here to pick up a good brother of mine.

You see... I'm the to rescue Cousin."

'Sling!'
