Myriads of shining stars were strewn about the night sky, sparkling so bright that it was a thrill to watch. The clock had just struck three.
Before he approached the entrance to the Stone territory, Kyon had spent a third of Synergy on keeping his body from destruction. Every second counted!
The guard stopped the late guest.
«Can I see your formation.»
Kyon got off the horse and showed his formation.
«Kyon Stone?! The patriarch's grandson?!» – The guard sounded surprised. Then his expression grew serious:
«You are under arrest! Patriarch Bai is looking for you. Please, don't resist and come with me!»
«Shut up!» – Kyon barked imperiously. – «I know that grandfather is looking for me! That's why I've arrived, dumbass! Why else would I be here?! Don't stand on my way, or you will lose not only your job but also your life! Go back to your station, dog.» – When Kyon finished, he calmly climbed his horse and entered the family territory.
