>>5677162The big figure takes a while to answer.
>"...HUH?">"W-were you sleeping, sir?">"Si-LENCE, re-PEAT re-PORT."That doesn't sound like the female voice you heard, maybe there are two people in there?
>"A-Ah I'm sorry sir! As I was saying, Master La Saizel has spotted Little Princess in the city of North sir! Master Rei is investigating the area as we speak. If I may, I suggest we meet with him on the outskirts of town and plan a pincer attack strategy, sir!">"...ac-CEPTA-ble, let us MOVE im-MEDIA-tely-">A-A-Actually sir…"The soldier speaks up to his commander, Redeye, who turns to him in an irritanted manner.
>"T-T-The forces of Leazas should notice the absence of the border patrol in a couple of hours, we should find another hiding spot further back in the mountains, wait until nighttime comes again, and sneak our way into-">"...Wai-TING? Snea-KING??">A-Ahh…"He's wearing armor, but you feel like you can still see the soldier visibly sweat from here.
>"AH-HA-HA-HA! No wai-TING! No snea-KING! ME's body STRONG! Crush hu-MANS like in-SECTS! We move to-DAY! O-KAY?!">"P-P-Please listen, Master Redeye! We still don't know the location of the Dark Sword Chaos or the Light Blade Nikkou, it's too risky to move in without carefully investigating the area first-">"HA-HA-HA! Pu-NY sword is no match for ME's bo-DY! We move to-DAY! O-KAY?!">"S-Sir please! If we move in without thinking, Mrs Rona might get killed!"The soldier points at something laying down in front of Redeye, you can't see what is is from here. This makes the giant figure pause for a moment.
>"...ac-CEPTA-ble, let us re-TREAT. O-KAY?">"W-Wonderful sir! I'll go alert the others!"The Monster Soldier runs off to the direction he came from. Redeye seems pensive for a moment. As the morning sunlight starts to seep in, you notice the details of his body, it seems to be some kind of giant metallic creature. Redeye suddenly gets up, this sudden movement scares you, so you hide further inside the bush.
>"...yeah I knew I smelled something familiar…"Chaos is whispering in your hand.
>"...that's Dark Lord Redeye… he's like a weird parasite thing that attaches itself to stuff and controls them… that big robot's probably something he found lying around…"The giant robotic body gets up on his feet, grabbing something, probably that Mrs Rona that was mentioned earlier, that was laying down next to him and forcing her to her feet, you can't get a good look at the girl due to the giant robot being in the way.
>"Ro-NA, let us MOVE!">"Y-Yes, master…"You are hiding inside of a bush, Chaos in hand. What do you do?
>Stay hidden>Go back to the carriage>Try to get a better look at the girl>Surprise attack!
