“Your Holiness, you’re as sharp as ever! You understand people better than 1

Quintus roared with laughter, tossing two more bandits to the ground with

At the back of the bandit group, their leader, known for always hanging back

a hundred men with him, they wouldn’t stand a chance against this one man.

“No wonder you’re so bold. You knew exactly how to bait us with those

supplies… You all are too clever!”

The bandit leader in the felt hat looked up at Mackenzie as if she were a
