Chapter 1877. Asserting Dominance

Jonathan and Arlcard traveled to the nearest Hydrurond town not yet occupied by the underworld forces. The town was mostly deserted. Several stubborn civilians who refused to leave were seen gathering their things to prepare for leaving. They had heard how close the demon army was. They finally decided this catastrophe wouldn't go away by itself. They would be slaughtered if they stayed.

Jonathan and Arlcard went to the town's zone portal. The state of war did not block teleportation to the outside of the warzone. They used this zone portal to teleport directly to Vacharest. Arlcard didn't pay anything to use the zone portal. As an outworlder's companion, he enjoyed the same benefits as outworlders.

When they exited Vacharest's zone portal, the scene before them was completely different from the Hydrurond town they left behind. This capital was bustling with crowds. Crowds that were even more than what this capital used to have.
