"So..."
Roland gave Dalko a strange look.
"You had barely arrived at the harbor before Mr. Colin told you to evacuate?"
"That's right."
Dalko glanced furtively at Colin, who was walking ahead, and scratched his head uncomfortably.
"At the time, I was wondering why Mr. Colin was in such a hurry for us to leave. It was only later that I learned the Truth Church had plotted to assassinate His Majesty Morne..."
"What about the commoners at the ceremony..."
"I'm not sure about the specific details..."
Dalko lowered his voice.
"But I imagine Mr. Colin also arranged for them to evacuate the dangerous areas ahead of time..."
'Wouldn't telling the commoners to leave have alerted the people from the Truth Church?'
Although he had his doubts, Roland didn't voice them after seeing the somewhat dazed look on Dalko's face.
"Hah..."
Roland sighed helplessly.
'So I was the only one who got caught in the crossfire for no reason.'
Shaking his head lightly, he continued his questions.
