A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 374

While Jaxon caused chaos, Enkrid shoved Marcus aside as if discarding him.

"The Grand Duke is inside the palace—"

Marcus rolled to the side as he spoke. He was sharp enough to realize his current state. Finding a place to hide was his best option.

He had no strength left to fight.

His only choice was to stay out of sight.

Despite once commanding a battalion, he had no soldiers left under his direct command.

Damn Baisar.

His family had chosen neutrality, siding with neither faction.

Marcus resented that.

But that didn’t mean he would sit idly by.

If he sent Enkrid into the palace, he would do whatever needed to be done.

First, he just had to survive.

I shouldn’t have gotten off the damn horse.

Enkrid gave him a brief nod before mounting One-Eyed Jack.

The same overwhelming energy as before pulsed through Jack’s skin.

Pure, unrelenting will.

"I am fast."

A body built for nothing but running.

Yet, he did not recklessly flaunt his strength or speed.

And still, he ran.

"Because I asked him to."

Jack had fully accepted Enkrid’s request.

The half-transformed beast-horse stomped the ground several times before moving.

Comparing him to a regular horse was an insult.

With a smooth push off the ground, Jack lowered his body and surged forward.

His knees bent just enough to drive his momentum, his movements fluid and precise as he slipped through the mansion’s front gates.

It was quick. Silent.

A dark blur vanishing in the night.

At that moment, Jaxon had drawn the attention of every assassin, having just killed a few more.

No one was guarding the front gate.

Was this some kind of assassin habit?

Enkrid briefly considered it before speaking.

"That way."

Lowering his body, he gripped the horse’s mane and whispered.

Jack responded immediately, heading toward the outer road leading to the palace.
