They could see that these bandits were wearing fairly expensive and powerful armor and were balanced with weapons that looked just as good.
One of the leaders said arrogantly.
"So it's true you guys are from the kingdom. You guys must have a lot of money, right."
Shiji raised his hand.
"It's not that it's not your lucky day, we're knights. Bandits are always beaten by us and led to prison."
They laugh.
"That only applies to ordinary bandits, we are extraordinary.We protect ourselves with top-class equipment and also our expertise in combat can not be doubted, he said, we bandits who will rule the world."
When Pandora was about to open her mouth Shiji shut her mouth.
"You better not try to curse them."
Pandora bit her hand.
"You are a beast, uwaaah."
Shiji ran to and fro while Pandora remained hanging in his hands.
"Take my hand off."
"Not going to."
The bandit leader snorted towards Stella.
"He must be a lousy guy, I just saw a man that sillily."
"He's just a temporary knight."
"Temporary knight? Whatever it is, he's just a weakling, you all take up arms and attack."
Shiji pointed his hand then said before they were about to step forward.
"Hell of the Abyss."
The explosion echoed into the air along with the entire bandit that crashed in all directions and only produced a giant crater afterwards.
"It looks like their armour is really strong."
All the knights could only gawk at the sight while the bandits were unconscious.
"You really don't have to forgive Shiji."
"We don't have time to arrest them or take them to the capital, we'll strip them of their armor and weapons and leave them alone."
"Good."
Following Stella's direction everyone begins to collect their gear and inserts it into Stella's storage ring.
"Let's hurry."
"Good."
The city they were heading to was inside the forest, which was why its location was quite helpful in infiltration. On top of the hill everyone could see the wall surrounding him.
"That's where it is."
Stella presents a map to explore the area that became a hostage place for the residents of the city.
They don't put hostages in one place but rather into four spots.
"Can we trust this information?" ask Pandora.
"This is what the hostage who escaped said."
Shiji shook his head.
"Not necessarily just four, there's a chance there's one last place."
"I can multiply myself to check it out but I'm not sure that the other me can sneak in without being discovered."
Stella obviously would not take such a risk, soon the queen's entourage would arrive, he should at least be able to take out all the hostages and kill all the members of the freedom wing so that they will not appear again in the present or the next age.
"Then let me investigate, I might be able to do something later and you take care of the remaining four" Shiji said.
Stella glanced at Pandora who nodded lightly in response.
"Then please, and the four groups that have been divided will each get this map."
Stella gave the paper to each of the group leaders.
It was a map to go down the underground culverts of the city.
"No one will notice if we take that route, then I leave it to all of you."
"Well," said everyone in unison.
