435 A Special Day

As Asher and the others settled into the spacious interior of the carriage, Leonidas immediately noticed something amiss, "Hey...the windows. I can't see outside," he mumbled, his expression one of confusion and slight concern.

Asher, too, had observed this peculiar feature upon entering. 

He scrutinized the windows, his brow furrowing, "Why are these windows sealed with mana?" he questioned aloud, noting that the windows weren't just tinted black, but completely obscured, preventing any light from penetrating, thus rendering the outside world invisible.

The old man driving the carriage, his voice respectful and steady, responded from the driver's cabin, "Forgive me, Your Majesty. But it is for your own protection, considering the circumstances."

Leonidas shrugged and chimed in, "Oh well...it does make sense. Maybe to discourage those trying to assassinate us on the way. Not that they would succeed anyway," He said with a confident smile.
