Mask-on

["I see lots of people here. None of them look like bandits…"] said Yoru inside my head.

After traveling for a little while in the Guanghua Kingdom, we spotted a large convoy traveling with soldiers, and I sent Yoru to tell me who was inside.

It could have been a pack of criminals that got captured and were being taken to jail. However, it turned out to be the opposite.

Everyone inside the carriages was enslaved commoner families who were most likely being sent somewhere to get sold.

Yoru also mentioned that he saw a few children inside the carriages, so we just felt like we couldn't ignore it.

'We have this much power… We might as well use it.' I thought.

Giving the order to my companions and the rest of the group, we prepared to intercept the convoy when Melina spoke up.

Opening her void pocket, she brought out seven wooden masks, one for each person in our group—even Yoru.
