The Guardian's Sword

Otherwise, why would Mayor Claremento have had such a big reaction?
Therefore, as soon as Sean entered the room, Shania asked eagerly, "Mr.
Lennon, did you elope with Ms. Lisha last night?"

"What?" Sean was confused.

"When you and Ms. Lisha did not return last night, Mayor Claremento sent
hundreds of soldiers to scour Crosac looking for you. The mayor was furious..."
Shania explained.

Sean already knew about these.

He nodded and shook his head before saying, "l already know that, but it's not
what you think. Nothing is going on between me and Lisha... By the way, you
may pack your things. We're leaving Crosac and returning to Dorodo in an hour."
Shania was taken aback by Sean's words before being overjoyed. She had
wanted to return to Dorodo for a long time!

In the mayor's residence, she could not walk around freely, go out casually, or go
shopping. She could only stay in the room and play on her phone all day. It was
so boring.

She was instantly overjoyed at Sean's announcement that she could return to
Dorodo.

"Okay, I'll pack my things now!" Shania said excitedly and ran back to her room.
Instead of leaving, Uriah asked doubtfully, "Aren't we supposed to stay for a week
or so? It's only been three days."

"Things have changed, and so has our plan."

Sean did not explain much. Once he finished speaking, he waved his hands and
hinted at Uriah to pack up and get ready to leave.

There was nothing Uriah could say but to follow Sean's orders. He nodded and
headed to his room to pack up his things.

After Uriah left, Sean told Zander, "Claremento's second daughter, Aria sent her
bodyguard Lowich to assassinate Lisha and me last night. But because I was
around, Lowich failed, and I beat him badly.”

Hearing Sean say this, Zander immediately understood why they had to leave in
such a hurry.

A conflict had broken out between Mayor Claremento's two daughters. What was
likely to follow was a fierce fight over the mayor's successors.

If the diplomatic convoy stayed here, it would be involved in politics and
schemes, and it would be difficult to escape. Therefore, they must get out
immediately. They must leave this place of trouble before the worst came.
However, Zander looked at Sean and hesitated momentarily before asking,
"Commander, aren't you going to help Ms. Lisha?"

"Why should I help her?" Sean asked in reply.

Zander paused for a moment and shut up.

He could not say it was because he was now acquainted with Ms. Lisha, right?
A moment later, Zander came up with another reason. "Commander, Ms. Lisha
loves Dragon Kingdom's culture and is friendly with Caucasians and Dorodo. If
she fails or even gets killed, Aria will end up as the successor. Aria might not be
friendly to Dorodo."

It was a good reason. Even Sean could not find anything wrong with it.

"You're right, but how can we help? And from what standpoint? These are
troublesome," Sean exhaled and said.

There was nothing Sean hated more than political fights and schemes for power.
What he was good at was leading his men into battle and killing enemies head-
on, not plotting against people behind their backs.
