Kovis immediately raised his hand and ordered loudly, putting the entire accompanying entourage on alert.
Leon and Ines exchanged a glance, knowing they must be encountering trouble.
He rose from the carriage, mounted a horse alongside, and swiftly rode up to Kovis's side:
"What's happening? Have we run into bandits?"
Kovis shook his head: "There's over a hundred cavalry cutting off the road, charging towards us rapidly, but the spy said they don't seem to be bandits. Their armor and battle robes are distinctive, more like the local kingdom's army."
He spoke without showing much concern, as this number of troops, unless led by a particularly powerful Felu Knight, could do nothing against a well-prepared Official Position Mage. Moreover, he had so many subordinates with him at the moment.
Kovis was only worried that if a fight broke out, the treasures behind them might not make it back to the ship intact.
