Their group is on the run, they keep running like there was no tomorrow. No one can blame them because if they are caught, torture would be their next destination and death would be the easiest way to escape. The magic he made helped them a lot to reach their destination. Not long after, they saw over the horizon the towering walls of Auburn City. If they run straight through the battlefield they will be able to reach the city in a short period of time but they need to use the road they used in infiltrating the camp to avoid being a free target in an open and wide area. The knight stationed in the watch tower noticed them and give the signal to remove the barricade for them to enter the camp. They reached the camp safely and Jin look behind and saw no one following them. He looks around the camp built just outside the great wall of Auburn City. The whole camp is barricaded by wood clasped together. It is not much of a defense but it will still do. He turn around and look ahead an
Morning came and the knights who are usually holding swords are now holding a shovel and other materials needed to rebuild the city. If it’s a normal day, they would become the center of a laughingstock. Only a few of the citizens are currently helping due to the fear of a sudden attack from the empire. Although Captain Matt assured them that it was not possible, the citizen still choose to hide in the emergency shelter. That is the reason why Captain Glenn wants to issue an order if the citizen won’t help during this time of crisis, they will vanish from the city once the war is over. He asked Celeste about her opinion but she shut it down. She went to the Adventurer Guild establishment and went on the underground emergency shelter. She then explain to the citizen hiding there about the problem and what would become of the city if they don’t help to hasten the rehabilitation of the city. In only a short period of time, Celeste went out together from the underground shelter of the
Throughout the day the knights and citizens help each other in rebuilding the city wall and its gate. They are hallway completing the gate.Jin was amazed at their flexibility. The citizens are fast on their work, they relentlessly build and build the gate.The knights are the exception, of course, they use mana strengthening to hasten their work but they still need the help of machinery like those levers and pulleys. Even if they use mana strengthening on themselves, they cannot still carry those heavy objects.Jin is still curious about how mana strengthening can act to protect your body and can be used against someone and yet cannot expect to help lift heavy objects.He was currently in a dilemma and standing in the middle of the plaza and trying to figure out how to efficiently endowed the rune magic to the gate and walls.He is facing three problems needed to be solved. First is the Earth affinity.Yes, he knows how to activate the rune magic but they are lacking in magicians wit
At the empire camp, the mysterious official saw and talk about Jin to his friends arrive on the camp.The old official is guarded by two domineering knights. Both knights have their swords hanging on their waist.The newly arrived knights exude a mysterious and domineering aura. The empire knights are trying to deduce their rank and they are certain that the two knights are currently on C Rank.C rank knights are hard to come by, even the Ruel empire doesn’t have countless C rank knights. Although the ranking is arranged by letters, the gap between ranks is very large.The three people walk directly to the current command center.The chair sole for the head of the army is now free and not occupied by Captain Felix.Since morning, he didn’t dare to sit anymore on that chair since the official assigned by the emperor will be here any moment.Captain Felix is now sitting with closed eyes on one of the chairs of the rounded big table and just waiting for the new commander to arrive.Not l
Evening came and the reconstruction of the wall is finished. Now, only the gate is needed to be mended.Earlier, Jin is nervous that he will receive an earful from Celeste because he didn’t get her opinion first.But on the contrary, Celeste agreed with him but she wants to talk about the wolf beast that rampaged and wanted to kill her.Apparently, she feels that the beast is hiding within Auburn City and waiting for an opportunity to attack.Jin fell into deep thought and agreed. Celeste was about to tell her how she notices that something is off when he raised his hand and smiled at her.How could he not have noticed her when she follows him when he first came here to Auburn City?“It’s okay. I got it. The reason why I don’t feel conspicuous about it is to avoid them from being alarmed. I am already working on it and once I learned their location, we will take care of it.”Celesta frowned, she didn’t see Jin walking around the city. How could he know their location? She can’t help b
The hidden base underground is located in the southern area of the auburn city. The long and dirty tunnel stretched from the southern gate to the dense forest one kilometer outside the wall.Usually, a lot of demon beasts are lurking here but during the construction of the tunnel, some demon beasts are killed so it is no wonder that peace prevailed for the time being inside the forest.The two captains and two head magicians start to scout the area, they lower their guard down due to their confidence and ignorance.They decided to divide the group into two. Then they went separate ways to start scouting.The group also feels delighted, although they are at the hidden entrance and from there, fresh air can be inhaled, it is still good to walk and stretch your legs sometimes.In the dense forest, the first group is happily chatting with each other and didn’t mind their surroundings. The sharpness in their eyes when they are guarding the entrance vanished.It cannot be helped, they are s
It only took them half an hour before they arrive at the hidden entrance of the base.Actually, this cannot be considered a hidden entrance! The entrance itself is open in the area guarded by four more captains and head magicians!The messenger sighed internally.When they arrive, the rest of them frowned at the happy expression of their comrades. They cannot help but asked the reason.The captain told them that they are the ones who found the messenger so their superior will give them a reward!The rest almost laugh out their lungs! And told the captain that he is out of his mind! Their superior is too stubborn to give rewards no matter how hard they resolve the situation. This time just finding the messenger will earn them rewards. Are they crazy?“Hmph! Who knows!” The captain smugly told them.Since it was them who found the messenger, they lead the messenger deep into the tunnel.The head magician and captain apologize to the messenger due to the dirt inside the tunnel.The messe
Jin was startled and stunned at his location. What just happened? Did he just make these two his devotee? That’s…He cannot help but sigh inwardly.During his investigation. Using his hearth affinity, it leads him to the southern gate in the auburn city. The speck of used mana and the faint presence of the wolf demon beast is still lingering.He was contemplating if he needs to bring Bea or Robert just in case he has no means to face the enemy alone. But on the other hand, it is much better to act alone this time. Who knows if he’ll get lucky? He has no choice but to follow the lingering presence of the demon wolf beast.Which resulted to meet these two kind-hearted fellows with a little brain damage on their heads. At first, he was hesitant if he should take them down or use them. But fortunately for him, the knight confused him as a messenger which he quickly uptake.His original plan is to use these two to lead him on the hidden base and advise their superiors to stand down for a w
