Almost all the Guards of Parania City rushed toward the East when they saw smoke rising from the granaries burning in the distance.
They left their barracks unprotected because it didn't even cross their mind that someone in the city might attack them, let alone set them on fire.
Unfortunately for them, this was part of the intricate plan of a seven-year-old to turn their happy festival into a disaster.
Just a few minutes after the soldiers left their barracks, Armand and Alina snuck inside and headed straight to where they were storing their weapons and ammunition.
They were carrying several oil barrels in their storage rings, which was more than enough to set the entire barracks ablaze.
The two moved with haste, placing the barrels in strategic locations before backing away.
Armand had a grim look on his face because he never thought that there would come a day when he would sabotage his own race just to keep a war from happening.
