Hovering right beside him were three bodyguards whom Leone personally handpicked.
They were none other than Gundar, Astravor, and Lord Azar.
These three powerhouses ensured Otto's safety.
Since Otto's strategic value was immense, Leone didn't dare send him alone, especially against an opponent who once fought the Great Shaman of the Borderlands to a draw.
"The Wind Guardian can fly."
When Leone heard that from Gundar, he knew that letting Otto fight alone was out of the question. As such, he had sent three powerful bodyguards to protect his vassal.
Also, if the Wind Guardian ever made his move, it would be easier for Gundar to fight him if he had strong helpers.
This was a strategy to terrorize the enemy, as well as lure their most powerful warrior into a night battle.
As for the scouts that the Aurelion Empire sent out earlier?
All dead, except for the Black Hawks that Gundar, Astravor, and Lord Azar had knocked unconscious.
