As the leader of the fleeing group, Reji actually did not "retreat" quickly. The Eagle Mercenary Group and Princess Sophia, who followed behind him were anxious and wished they could have started running earlier, unlike Reji, who seemed to be taking a leisurely stroll.

But none of them dared to speak out, let alone suggest leaving Reji behind and running away on their own, even though they had already exited the venue.

The venue was not the only place engulfed in turmoil; the entire royal palace was ablaze with fire. What was supposed to be a peaceful night was now filled with the sounds of fighting and screams.

This indicated that the massacre at the grand hall was just the tip of the iceberg.

The royal palace of Ilinor was now a river of blood everywhere.

No one dared to bet on whether skeletal soldiers or some other more terrifying creatures, might suddenly emerge from the shadows.

Indeed, Princess Sophia knew this best.

The skeletal soldiers were not the Five Flowers Alliance\'s only trump card. In Madam Lisa\'s hands, there was an even more terrifying killing machinean undead warrior.

Now that she knew the Five Flowers Alliance was merely using her as a hunting target, Sophia was terrified. The only source of security for her now was Teacher Reji in front of her.

However.

This sense of security for the young princess was now facing a significant crisis.

It wasn\'t because a new creature had appeared.

But rather

Whizz!

Whizz

!

A whooshing sound came from the path they had taken, and a streak of green light rapidly approached. The figure from the night sky landed, and it was Vielsia.

The elven girl had already changed her outfit, putting on the cloak given to her by Reji once more.

Vielsia landed in silence.

For a moment, she even didn\'t know how to start talking to Reji.

What should I say?

Asking Teacher Reji why he left me behind, why he didn\'t call me when retreating?

At this moment, it was Sea Tiger who broke the slightly silent atmosphere first.

"Miss Vielsia, it\'s great! Teacher Reji has been leading us very slowly, just waiting for you!"

As the captain capable of leading an A-rank adventurer team, Sea Tiger naturally understands the relationships between companions well and takes good care of everyone\'s emotions.

He immediately noticed something off in the atmosphere between Reji and Vielsia, the Teacher and student duo, and stepped forward to speak on Reji\'s behalf, soothing Vielsia in the process.

Indeed.

Upon hearing Sea Tiger\'s words, Vielsia\'s previously dimmed eyes immediately brightened.

She was like a loyal dog abandoned by its master, sad and silent, tail drooping. Yet, the moment she sensed her master still had memories of her, her spirits lifted, and she began wagging her tail again.

So, Teacher was still paying attention to me!

Maybe he didn\'t call for me just because the situation was too urgent!

Indeed, with the normal speed of retreat, they should have gone much further. So, Sea Tiger wasn\'t lying Teacher was indeed slowing down and was indeed waiting for me! I am really relieved.

Vielsia felt a surge of joy.

Her previous small bout of moodiness towards Reji vanished.

In fact, she believed thatReji must have thought there was an understanding between them that needed no words, which is why he didn\'t bother about her.

And she... she not only failed to grasp herTeacher\'s hint but also doubted him.

I... I am really a bad student!

Comforting herself with these thoughts and convincing herself that she had never been "abandoned" by Reji, Vielsia\'s sense of justice seemed to return as well.

The elf girl immediately said to Sea Tiger, "Mr. Sea Tiger, let\'s split into two groups! Let the injured retreat first, and those of us who can still fight should go back now; we might make it in time!"

"I just saw that there are still many adventurers holding out against the skeletal monsters. Let\'s go back and help them now! It\'s not too late!"

Vielsia was thinking of going back to save people.

This time, the ones she wanted to save were not the royal family or nobles, but the adventurers who were with them.

How should I put it?... Maybe she needs another push...

In Reji\'s view, it was a progression, at least, but not enough.

However, to everyone else, Sea Tiger first frowned, then quickly shook his head at Vielsia.

"I\'m sorry, Miss Vielsia, but for me, the members of the Eagle Mercenary Group are the most important. The first thing I must ensure is our own safety. Unfortunately, we really can\'t afford to assist Miss Vielsia."

"I"

The elf girl was at a loss for words for a moment, having naively thought that everyone wanted to save others just like she did. But she soon realized that wasn\'t the case.

Vielsia then looked towards Reji.

Sea Tiger and the rest of the Eagle Mercenary Group did the same.

Everyone knew that Reji\'s opinion was the most important here. If Reji said to go back, Sea Tiger would probably follow, albeit reluctantly.

But,

Faced with Vielsia\'s hopeful gaze, Reji shook his head and calmly asked:

"Vielsia, what is important to you?"

"What is important...?" The elf girl repeated, confusion and perplexity written all over her face.

Reji continued, "For me, Vielsia, you are my student. Your safety is above everything else. You are the most important, incomparable to anyone else. If I could exchange the lives of strangers for your safety, I would do it without hesitation."

After saying this, Reji no longer paid attention to Vielsia.

He turned around and continued walking forward.

The members of the Eagle Mercenary Group were silent, especiallyit\'s leader Sea Tiger.

If before, he merely respected Reji as an intellectual and a formidable Teacher, now, Sea Tiger felt a sense of identification with Reji, elevating his esteem for him by several notches.
