Chapter 878: He's mine

The Empire had intensified security measures around the portal nearest to the Royal City out of concern that Karyk might attempt to flee through it.

All the Knights remained on high alert, resolute in their determination to thwart any potential security breaches and safeguard the Royal City at any cost.

Multiple layers of protection enveloped the portal. The most formidable Pureblood Generals had encircled the portal, forming a Circle under the guidance of a shadow guard.

A secondary circle was established by additional Purebloods stationed at intervals of five hundred meters from the portal.

Their protective formation left no room for even the slightest breach, rendering it impossible for anyone to get past them.

Adding an extra layer of security, a protective barrier was conjured around the area, designed to promptly alert them to any unfamiliar movements.
