Auction trap (26)

After coming to an agreement, the driver led us along the planned route again.

We were supposed to eventually meet up with the fourth prince's people, but this had been delayed because of our carriage being destroyed by that fireball.

So we had to take a detour to reach where we were supposed to go.

It took a bit longer, but we arrived in the end.

After we arrived, we just stood there in the empty square.

This was a square that was supposed to be filled with people, but right now, there wasn't a single person here. All of the stall vendors, the people walking by, and everything else had disappeared from this square.

It was as if this place had suddenly been abandoned.

But I knew that this wasn't the case.

The reason why there was no one here was because they had all been evacuated before this since this was the place that had been chosen for the final confrontation.
