章 286: Chapter 281: How to Take Down a Duchy - Planning [Bonus Chapter]

At the break of Dawn, I pulled up the windows of my room and jumped out after leaving a small note back there. I had already told them that I'll be leaving so there wasn't any guilt like the first time I did this. The reason I took the window instead of the door, of course, was to ditch that bitch.

I hopped off and jumped straight out of the walls of the mansion. After heightening my senses, I checked back inside for anyone….

Nope.

I was free!

Without looking back, I started to dash through the trees, jumping over one branch after the next.

After building some distance between myself and Apollon, the next tree I stepped on moved.

I jumped back, but immediately, all of its branches like hands reached out and grasped at my toes.

"The hell!?"
