Rei was sent to a jail. He could only lamenting his fate.
<Host, I just leave you for a while, and you are already captured?>
<Yes, what a luck, right?>
<But you are quite fortunate for not being directly tortured right here and there. Look, your limbs are still intact.>
<Thank you for the comfort words.>
Rei roaming around the small jail in the dark and thinking ways to escape. He is sure it midnight already.
"You are reckless." a whisper sounded in front of the bars.
"I know." Rei turned his body and walked towards the bars. There he saw a silhouette of man, taller than him with straight posture, standing in front of him.
"So, what is the plan?" Rei asked while folding his hands with a proud gesture.
"I'll try to deceive the guards, then you try to escape."
The silhouette stick out his white hand and insert a small bag between the bars.
"Use this."
Rei nonchalantly accepted the bag.
"When you heard the whistle, just open the jail with the key in the bag and run."
"Okay, I understood."
The silhouette still lingered in front of Rei.
"You will be alright."
with that, Rei was left alone in the small jail. He took a look to other inmates that were sleeping soundly.
'They must be drugged. Poor things.'

"Boss, where were you?"
His subordinates greet him as soon as he appeared in the mansion.
"Just taking a walk."
He then lifted his head and looked at a certain windows with the lights on.
"How is the prince?"
"He is well behave. He finished his meals and is currently sleeping."
"Good."
Rei looked at three of his subordinates that were standing outside the mansion door.
"Patrol the surrounding. Make sure no one tried to approach this place."
"Noted, boss."
Then off the three guards to watch the surrounding. Rei looked at their retreated backs then entered the mansion.
This two level mansion is slightly smaller then the one in the kingdom before. The first level is filled with the previous owner paints. The mother looks gorgeous. The father is handsome. While the young boy looks playful. His hand tracing the big paints that was hung above the stairs.
He smiled.
Then he is startled with a loud scream and a bang.
He turned around only to see dozens of kingdom guards standing straight in front of the door.
"Surrendered yourself!" The head guard with the burly posture walks to the front.
Rei looked at them with cold eyes.
"Can't you all entered the mansion in a gentlemanly way? Look at the broken doors? That one needs a quite sum of money to get repaired!"
Rei frowning with scowl in his head.
"Do not say nonsense! Who cares about the door? Now, when you will be tortured in the jail until your death!"
The head guard answered furious.
Rei burst out laughing.
"I don't think so" Rei answered slyly.
The head guard lost patience and signal the troops to walk forward.
"You want to get the prince, right? How about I let you have him, but in exchange, you leave this place in peace?"
"No one asked for your opinion. We are not here to trade off, but to capture you!"
"How unfortunate." Rei chuckle.
"Can't you see that I've installed some bombs near the door?"
"What bombs?" The head guard looked at him incredulously.
Rei got something out of his small bag and showed something shaped cylinder with small rope at the head.
"This kind of bomb"
<Host, what is it?>
<Just some modern deceiving tools>
<A firecracker?>
<Then you learn your study>
Rei take a small torch near the paint and light the rope.
"Back off, or you'll all be hurt"
The guards still have a blank expression.
"Ck. I've warned you."
Rei then throwed the lighted hand-made firecracker in the middle of the room, then the firecracker explode. The explosion sound shocked the guards that they hurriedly run away from the door. A white smoke filled the hall.
Seeing the guards divided attention, Rei quickly ran away towards the second level of the mansion. He opened the room in which the prince is hostage, then locked the door.
"Hello, my dear friend."
Rei greeted the awaken prince.
The prince looks unhappy.
"Sorry to disturb your sleeping beauty, but we got to go now."
He then forcefully pulled the prince out of the bed, and in time when the guards smashed the room doors, the prince was standing in front of them with Rei's sword on his neck.
"Well.. well.. seems like another door needs to be fixed."
