Gilles wondered how Billy would be able to tell the difference between them. As a martial artist, he had quite good senses, but he never could tell between a loyal soldier and a brainwashed one. Nevertheless, it was something necessary... And he decided to trust Billy's words.

They crossed several kilometers using the underground tunnel and even beyond the border between the states. Once Billy opened an exit, even amidst the darkness of the night, Gilles recognized the area.. They were five kilometers beyond the point that marked the border. Still, the nearest town was Thirty kilometers southwest of their position.

"Why aren't there any fortress or defense points in this part of the state?" Billy asked. "Several years had passed since that truce, they should have built something in these parts by now."

"I suspect that she imagined that Jean would never have the chance to attack,"” Gilles said. "The war last year... All of us were certain of your defeat. You turned the tables magnificently."

"I didn't do it alone,"” Billy said. "Let 's get going."

Billy began to drive, following the road to the nearest destination, and as expected, they reached the place in just a few couple minutes. They stopped a few hundred meters away because even though it was silent, the magic cart was too big, and it would draw attention. In any case, that place was so small that it couldn't even be called a town... it was more like a village that had two hundred or so people. Still, it had some guards awake, around ten, because that village raised many animals, among them, horses for the army. In order to prevent thievery, they would guard hundreds of horses day and night.

"The biggest house is the house of the Captain of the guards," Gilles said while they were approaching.

From a distance, Billy could see three guards walking around the massive stable, three others at the entrance and the other four were nowhere to be seen. Still, after using his earth magic from a distance, he confirmed that three others were inside. The last one was missing... could it be because their leader was in his house? That complicated things... to make that even more complicated, he didn't find anything weird in their status.

"I guess it is their Captain.." Billy said. "Those guys look completely fine."

"How should we proceed?" Gilles asked. "My bones are a bit too old to approach them and knock them all out silently."

"I can take them down from here,"” Billy said. "Let's first wait until those six are in our field of vision."

Billy sounded confident, so Gilles got curious. He knew that he would use magic, but one would need more than such a simple trick to take those guys without alerting the others. Nevertheless, that was exactly what Billy did... He used a very simple stone Bullet and hit all of the guards almost at the same time in their stomachs. They didn't even have time to groan in pain.. They just fell unconscious... Such precision was obviously from someone who had practiced that trick thousands of times. The targets were more than one hundred meters away, after all. When the others inside the stable noticed that something was off, they came to check on things, but Billy had already gotten close enough, and he hit them before they got too close. Once again, he knocked them down instantly.

Since they could wake up while Billy takes care of their Captain, he decided to handcuff them with dirt and covered their mouths with some pieces of clothing. Billy had thought of putting them underground with only a small hole to let air enter, but that was kind of scary... Billy didn't want to make innocent people experience that kind of trauma.

Although it wasn't that dark or late, Billy and Gilles didn't find a single person outside their houses. Thanks to that, they had an easy time approaching the house of the Captain. In the end, using the window of the house, they saw the Captain, his wife and son having dinner together, and Billy clicked his tongue when he used Appraisal.

The Captain was being controlled, but he still was living his normal life. It seemed that he only received a few orders that wouldn't affect his lifestyle. Still, to think that Billy would have to kill him... If that had happened a month ago, Billy would have done that without hesitation, but now killing the father of a kid in a situation like that would bother him more than a little bit. Even more so since it wouldn't be a fight.

"You look conflicted... I suppose the Captain was brainwashed to do just enough work for that bitch that no one will find it weird," Gilles said. "Brainwashing just the leaders of each place... She is sloppy or her power has more limitations than I thought."

Billy didn't have time for that.. Putting Gilles' comments aside, he had to work fast in making the people of that village cross the border. Still, Billy truly didn't want to kill that man...

"This might be a good opportunity.." Billy thought while he rubbed his chin.

Breaking the window would attract too much attention, so Billy manipulated the interior of the lock of the door and slowly opened the door. After entering the house, it didn't take long for the Captain to notice Billy and Gilles, but he got knocked out with a stone bullet in his temple. His wife and the kid panicked when they saw two unknown individuals entering their house, but the woman recognized Gilles and went quiet, not to mention the other individual had two spears, but he wasn't using either..
