Mark took a step forward.
"It's true," he said, walking toward the door as Yuki followed him. "And don't worry about the commotion out there... It's all part of the plan."
The three elves watched them both pass between them without stopping, heading directly toward the hallway.
"What do you mean by that?" asked the druid with a frown.
Mark stopped in the doorway and turned his head slightly toward the others.
"Follow me and you'll find out."
After saying that, Mark and Yuki began to walk away down the hallway without looking back. The queen, seeing how they were getting further and further away, began to follow them.
"Your Majesty, wait!" said the armored elf, extending a hand toward her.
Emilia stopped.
"Don't you think you're being too trusting of someone you just met?" he asked with a frown. "That man lied to us. He infiltrated one of his subordinates into the meeting without any of us detecting her. And now you're just going to follow him?"
