(45 Minutes Ago, Fredrick's POV, Outside Leo's Apartment)
After being assigned the mission to eliminate Leo Skyshard by the Vice-Guildmaster, Fredrick quickly traced his trail from the Guild Headquarters back to his apartment, completely unaware that Leo had already slipped away nearly ten minutes ago.
Upon reaching the apartment, he was about to take his usual position in the corridor just outside Leo's door, intending to wait till nightfall to break in and kill the boy, when he was suddenly alarmed by the fact that there was no trace of life inside Leo's apartment.
Leo wasn't inside his room, and that made Fredrick's brow twitch, as he couldn't understand what was going on.
'I clearly traced his trail from the headquarters to here…. If he went back out of this door after returning, there should be a second trail running back out from here, but there isn't one….' he noted, as he searched around for signs of faded mana signature, but found nothing.
