"Ok, I can't remember much from last night after I got up and went to the bathroom, but when I woke up this morning, I noticed the knife in his chest. I tried waking him up in order to get him to the medics, but he was already dead.... And then I went to Alm's tent to notify him about it, he had disappeared!" Leon explained, every word making his voice tremble, almost on the verge of tears.
"That's really odd..." Saber said before taking a drink of his ale. "Maybe it has something to do with Faye's  and Forsyth's disappearances. I'm not too sure though..."
"What are we supposed to do then? Just sit around and wait for this person to come for us like helpless animals?" Kamui said, and pretty angrily at that. "We have to find whoever did this!"
"I'd say we ask Lukas first about Faye and Forsyth. He was the last one to be with them." Saber sighed.
"What then? Everyone who's asked him so far has turned up either missing or empty handed." Leon said, obviously still upset.
"I'm not actually sure. The only clue we have so far is that they've been targeting people that were in Alm's group before we merged into one big army. So maybe we ask people from his group?" Kamui said, obviously grabbing straws for ideas.
"That's our only option, unless Leon has a better one." Saber said.
"I'm just going with any option that will lead to justice. It's just I'm still in shock over it..." The archer sighed. "This is the second time that this has happened..." He muttered to himself.
"Wait, second time!?" Both mercenaries said. "You mean this has happened before?!"
"Yeah, every time I have the hots and lovey doveyness for someone they end up getting killed... Maybe it's the gods saying I'm not meant to have a lover." The archer said, trying to make a joke out of it, despite the tears in his eyes.
"Dude, we are going to find whoever did this. And we'll let you get some target practice out of it." Kamui said as he put a hand on his friend's back in an attempt to comfort him.
"Do you mean it?"
"Have I ever lied before?"
Everything seemed fine, except for one person listening in. He took a sip of his drink before saying to himself "I have my next targets."
