Chapter 176: Memories

At the Kingdom of Zion

"Commander Cora, isn't it a bit early for you to arrive today?" Katelina asked as she approached the commander, who was sitting on a bench, sipping tea while waiting for her.

Cora immediately stood up from her chair, bowing politely. "Your Majesty, how have you been?"

"I am well, Lady Cora. And you?" Katelina gestured for Cora to sit back down while she took a seat opposite her.

"I am good too, Your Majesty. Yes, our arrival is a bit early because we were also instructed by His Majesty to help clear the southeastern region of Zion from monsters," Cora commented with a smile.

"That's true," Katelina acknowledged. "Our military has been struggling to clear that area. We need more mages, but we lost many of our powerful ones before. What we have left are a few senior mages who are too old to fight. Most of them are just teaching new trainees."
