Chapter 149: Chapter 78: The Situation in the North

After Duke Brad's death, the Ashen Nest swiftly occupied the entirety of Northwind Castle. Key areas such as the city hall and the armory naturally fell into the control of the evil dragon's minions.

The Rackman Castle, surrounded by the Shadow Curse, was sealed off by the army and turned into a forbidden zone.

Every gate of Northwind Castle was guarded by the Goblin Army, armed with muskets, enforcing martial law. No one dared to escape, for patrols composed of Dragon Vein Goblins and Kobolds eagerly awaited to tear apart any fleeing individuals.

An oppressive atmosphere permeated Northwind Castle.

The thirty thousand inhabitants of the city were all anxious about their fates.

As Northwind Castle fell, news of the Rackman Duchy's collapse spread throughout Anzeta.

Though the Northern nobility had anticipated the duchy's fall, its swift demise left them stunned.
