[Bonus chapter] Here Comes the Ruler

The wildfire spread rapidly, and Viviana knew something was amiss. She had already begun to evacuate towards the entrance of the labyrinth, following the instructions of the Cardinal and Obsidian Elders.

However, due to the commotion at the fortress, several goblin military camps on the outskirts had entered a state of war. 

Numerous Goblin Wolf Riders were scouring the area in search of enemies. In addition, these intelligent goblins had set up a blockade around the fortress, attempting to intercept any intruders who had breached the labyrinth's core.

The goblins' response undoubtedly increased the difficulty of Viviana's evacuation. She had to boldly stride forward while remaining vigilant against the goblin forces that could emerge at any moment. 

Her dancing Crimson Sword cleared a path before her, simultaneously serving as an early warning system for any approaching enemies.
