The leader scratched his head and then shrugged. "Very well, we'll check. Step back."
Severin stepped away from the door, his hand on his sword.
One of the guards stood in front of the door while the others leaned fast against the wall.
The one facing the wall nodded, and then, with a quick jerk, he kicked the door open swiftly. The wooden door slammed wide with little resistance, splinters of wood flying everywhere.
The first guard was covered in blue shield as he rushed into the room.
Swissh! Swissh!
They rushed into the room, a collective shield covering all of them as one.
But there was no one there.
Almost as Severin expected.
The room was empty and clean, just like Severin left it. There was not a single thing out of place that Severin could tell.
He was left stunned.
He was sure that there would be someone on the other side, or at the very least, his room would be out of place.
