It was clear that Lilly wanted nothing more to do with where they were as she looked towards the exit whimpering while beginning to tear up. Mandrake glared at Astamon for upsetting his daughter so much. It was likely Lilly would be somewhat traumatized by these events. Hopefully she would recover swiftly enough with the right care. Looking back at Arthur he said "Herlock Solmes. An interesting name but why do I have the feeling that is merely an alias. That name sounds like the name of a fictional detective Lothar and I's eldest child. The detective was called Sherlock Holmes if I remember right."
Lothar was having trouble remembering that information but Mandrake had seemed to have no trouble remembering. "Perhaps we should leave this place before anyone comes back. Lilly isn't the only one who wants to leave this place." Lothar said as he began leading the group out of the cave before he began leading them back to his and Mandrake's car. He and Mandrake were on full alert as Mandrake could sense the minds of multiple digimon spread throughout the forest. Fortunately none were that close obviously still looking for Lilly.

Arthur smirked at Mandrake's statement as he, "Conan" and "Elektra" were led outside the cave by Mandrake and his group. Then, as they walked along, Arthur remarked with a chuckle
"You are a credit to your training, good sir. Few have realized this rather pedestrian ploy of mine...and you are indeed correct on all accounts, for this name of mine IS most certainly an alias and you have correctly ascertained its origin as well. I use this, of course, as a standard precaution. There is no need to worry, however, though I may be using an alias, I can assure you, neither my retinue nor I are evildoers or possessed of any sort of malice in the slightest."
He paused there to reorganize his three-unit group into a triangular defensive formation with Mandrake, Lothar, and Lily in the center, all the while not slowing down the pace of the group's overall movement and then continued his narrative
"As for my real name, I shall be happy to give it to you if you deem it fit and so desire, perhaps after a slew of further encounters wherein we have gained each other's confidence to a greater degree."
With that said, he fell silent and then the group continued onwards towards Mandrake's car and thankfully, they encountered no more opposition on their way towards it, potentially because the other enemy digimon sensed the difference in strength between themselves and Mandrake as well as Lothar. In short order, the group reached their destination at the entrance to the forest and once they did, Arthur and his two compatriots, Conan and Elektra, bid adieu to Mandrake's group and parted ways on good terms, leaving Mandrake and his group to their own devices then on.

Mandrake grinned but since it was obscured by his cape the only sign was a mischievous glint in his sapphire blue eyes. "Maybe others are aware of your ploy but decided to play along. Let's just say if you were a threat Lilly would not be as calm as she is. She is an empath and seems to be quite gifted in sensing the emotional states of others." Mandrake said as the group made their way. As Arthur and his group formed a defensive parameter the spirit wielder continued speaking. Afterwards Mandrake said "I won't force you to reveal your true name unless you're ready."
Upon reaching the car Mandrake handed Lilly to Lothar and the Leomon went to secure their daughter in her safety seat while Mandrake climbed into the passenger seat since he was in no shape to drive. As Arthur and his companions left Mandrake waved while Lothar climbed into the driver's side before driving away. Those three were an interesting group that was for sure. Who knew what would happen when Mandrake and Lothar met Arthur and his cohorts next.
