As soon as they arrived in front of the Sword and Magic shop, Leo moved his attention away from the princess as he started observing the shop. He then breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that the shop looked mediocre.

Obviously, from the very beginning, Leo's plan had its pros and cons.

There was a 50% for it to succeed, which the merchant caravan would then take them to small or medium-sized businesses. A 50% chance that it would fail, 49% would take them to a large size business, and a 1% that chance that it would take them to an underground market.

It was really fortunate for them that the mature woman's business looked like just a mediocre business. Leo really doesn't want to imagine what would happen to them if ever they had unluckily stumbled into someone who owns a known and large expensive business. The money they had would not even be enough. Although, they don't mind getting embarrassed, but some unexpected danger would surely follow them afterwards. And he doesn't want to have such danger.

Also, the shop's owner would immediately question their identity. No, actually they won't, but it's expected that they will report them to the Silver city guard, and it's precisely those guards that would question them.

Afterwards.... No! There won't be any afterwards... It would be the end of them since they will surely die the moment the guards knew that the Princess of the Crimson Rose Kingdom was with them.

Moreover, what if they became so unfortunate that they actually stumbled into a merchant caravan from an underground market? They would surely end up becoming saleable goods. Considering that the underground market only sells products at a horribly expensive price, and they going there was really suspicious since they weren't even capable of buying anything, highly likely they would then be kidnapped, hence surely becoming their products later on.

The moment that Leo had made such a plan in his mind. He had also thought of the consequences of his action. He was basically betting his life for such a plan.

"Ayysstt!" Leo turned to look at the princess as he said, "You, Princess of the Blood race, should compensate me after this mess!"

The Princess looked at Leo while feeling wrong inside, "It's not like I forced you to save me, right?"

Just when Leo wanted to argue back, a mercenary suddenly knocks on their carriage's door to inform them that their Madam had invited them inside the shop.

Obviously, Leo understood that the soldier meant today was that it was time for them to go inside the shop to continue their business with their boss. He had used the 'let's discuss business' plan to get inside the Silver city, after all, so he should continue with how it would play out.

Leo turned towards the princess as he pulled her hands towards him. But as soon as he got her hands, he was immediately pinched really hard. He didn't mind it though as he said, "Don't do anything unnecessary and stupid inside! As soon as we get out of here, I will let you go!"

The Princess nodded her head, but she still didn't stop pinching Leo's hand.

.....

As soon as they arrived inside, Leo became really shocked to see that the matured woman wasn't anywhere... No, there was actually someone there to meet with them. But, actually, it wasn't that she was not there to meet them; it was just that the shop itself was actually not a mediocre business at all.

Sword and Magic!

"Heck! Why didn't I realized it sooner?! Sword and Magic is the number 1 shop of the entire Human race!!" Leo cursed himself due to his stupidity.

Sword and Magic shop was a store recognized as the number 1 store throughout the whole Human race territory. Actually, they were not just a store, but an organization. A really powerful organization!

The Sword and Magic have branches in every Kingdom and Empires of the Humans. They even have some branches in other Foreign race's territory, too.

It was even argued back then that the Sword and Magic may have the same strength as those Human Empires.

"No... no, no, no... This can't proceed any further, I need to escape!" Leo thought while panicking.

"Ohhhh... That's why the merchant caravan looked really familiar to me!" Fatty Ben said, seemingly nonchalant.

Hearing Fatty Ben's remarks, Leo quickly turned to them as he grabbed them both and immediately informing them about the direness of the situation. Butler Xiao and Fatty Ben turned solemn immediately the moment they heard his explanation.

The Princess finally believed that these three people weren't kidnappers or rapists at all. They were just ordinary Nobles who were pulled into her mess because of their Young Master's kindness.

'What a bunch of fools, you should have just let me die in the woods...' She thought in her mind.

"What should we do then?!" Butler Xiao and Fatty Ben voiced out in unison.

"Respected guest! Ummm... I'm Alicia, and I'm here to guide you towards Madam Silva." The receptionist name Alicia suddenly interrupted Leo and his group from their discussion.

Leo quickly looked at the girl and nodded, acting like nothing was wrong at all. But, deep inside, he can't really help but to gulp a mouthful of saliva. 'We are really in danger now, even the name of the Boss sounds like a bad guy... I mean woman!'

As soon as Alicia turned her head around, Leo immediately said, "Why don't we just tell their Boss the truth?"

"No, we can't! If we do such a thing, then we will surely face a really dangerous situation... Young Master, the woman with us is the Princes of the Crimson Rose Kingdom! What do you think their thoughts would be after hearing that we have their princess with us? Even if we explained it to them that we had just coincidentally encountered the Princess along our journey to Silver city, they would still make us a scapegoat to fix the mess! Young Master, we would be blamed for why the Blood race is causing destruction around the Silver Kingdom!" Butler Xiao hurriedly explained.

"Yes, Young Master, how about you and Butler Xiao, along with this princess, escape while I'll do my best to hold them off? I already told the scout awhile ago to report to Head Guard Kevin the situation here. So, all of you should just go and run back to our city, since sooner or later you will meet Kevin!" Fatty Ben said while putting his hand on his sword.

"Respected guest, please come with me this way, please!" Alicia said softly. But her voice for Leo and his group at this moment was like a devil underling calling them towards the gate of Satan's castle!

'Heck, we are screwd!'

.....

Just after a minute of walking, Leo and his group finally arrived in front of an oak wood door. The door had a sword, and a book crossed together as its design.

"You may enter inside!" Alicia said before leaving.

As soon as Alicia left them after arriving in front of the door, Leo and the others suddenly gulped a mouthful of saliva at the same time before pushing through the door and walking inside.

"Respected, Madam Silva!" Leo respectfully greeted. Despite feeling really nervous, he still continued to act like everything was normal. That nothing is wrong with them at all. He was really hoping deep inside that the matured woman called Madam Silva would not notice anything wrong.

However, the moment the 4 of them stepped inside the Madam's room and close the door, the first thing that Madam Silva looked at was unexpectedly the princess of the Crimson Rose Kingdom.

Leo and the other panicked immediately.

"You have 5 minutes to explain to me why the Princess of the Crimson Rose Kingdom is currently with you!" Madam Silva greeted them in a threatening manner.

"What the..." Leo became really shocked that Madam Silva had actually realized that the woman with them was the Princess of the Crimson Rose Kingdom immediately. She was wearing a cloak that covered her face and entire body, after all. Even her family would be having a hard time recognizing her, right?

"You might be wondering why I can tell? Ever since young, I had the aptitude to remember everyone I had met. I was given the honor to meet the royal household of the Crimson Rose Kingdom many times before. So, I can confirm immediately that the woman with you is Princess Cassandra Rose, the greatest young vampire of the Crimson Rose Kingdom, and also the next in line of the throne!" Madam Silva suddenly explained, "You only have less than 4 minutes remaining to explain." She then added.

Leo turned solemn. Without any hesitation, he then began explaining to Madam Silva what had happened to them, why they had unexpectedly met with Princess Cassandra.

Naturally, Leo didn't dare to lie at all. What can he do, their secret was quickly known by Madam Silva? Aside from obviously telling the truth, there was nothing else they can do anymore!
