Death God Of The Battlefield
A few hours later, Lux and his comrades arrived at another city with its gates shut tight.
Several archers were manning the ramparts, but fortunately, none of them opened fire because Lux made sure that they wouldn't be attacked by his former comrades.
Before he left the Gate of Conquest, he had asked Great General Sherlock to give him several banners of the Yelan Kingdom.
The Half-Elf had thought of the possibility that they might meet the two Great Generals again if they challenged the Gate of Famine.
Because of this, he wanted to have their banners just in case they would be forced to march onto a battlefield where the Yelan Kingdom was fighting against their mortal enemy, the Ammarian Kingdom.
Since Lux's entourage had the banners, the defenders of the city didn't attack them, but didn't let them enter the city either. Clearly, they were still wary of a bunch of teenagers carrying the banner of their Kingdom, especially in these troubled times.
