Zach, Biu, and his familiars were lucky enough to find a couple of unlucky military scouts roaming around near Soku. Without startling the young scouts too much, Zach kindly asked them to relay a message. He made sure to wave the white flag in their faces to show that he had peaceful intentions.
The two scouts rushed back to the city to relay his message while Zach, Biu, and Zach's maids strolled along.
And when they got close enough to see the city, there was a group of people already waiting outside it for them. As Zach and his entourage approached, the detachment from the city also neared them.
Zach narrowed his eyes. He thought Violina's blue hair would stick out like a sore thumb even from afar, but he couldn't see it. Was the Ice Witch not part of the detachment? Had it been a bad idea not to mention his name to the scouts just because he wanted to surprise Violina?
