Chapter 77: Infiltration I
[Upper city of Lueurre]
While a storm was passing through the shopping district of lower city, the atmosphere of upper city was a stark contrast.
It was silent. Silent and empty.
So silent that even the rustle of the Atlas's leaves from above could be heard if one concentrated enough.
Of course, there was no one to hear that, except for the few figures in shining armors patrolling the streets. Alas, they too were too busy to spare a though for something as insignificant as the rustle of the leaves; all their focus, on the orders the Baron gave them – the orders to lockdown the city.
Though, if they did pay attention, then as accomplished magic users they would notice it too, a sudden change in leafy symphony, that would mean quite a few things, especially in this situation.
Well, they didn't.
And now, the consequences would be dire.
