Chapter 381: Dem V Cedric

As Sir Cedric and his two remaining men continued their journey towards the Eastern border, the atmosphere within the group observed a dramatic shift.

No longer was there a sense of ease and camaraderie as it was instead replaced by a palpable tension which filled the air.

Throughout the journey each soldier's eyes kept constantly darting around, seeking any sign of danger.

Cedric's senses were especially heightened, as with the memory of losing his men on the bridge still being fresh in his mind, he was prepared for anything.

As the group rode through a patch of open plains, they saw no signs of any enemy threat for a few hundred meters ahead of them, as within the open plains, there was no obvious hiding spot where one could hide in broad daylight.

However, even through this patch of land, where no obvious enemy was visible, the men remained vigilant, constantly scanning their surroundings.
