Time seemed to stand still.
The shrill cry of a sparrow echoed in the heavens, becoming the only predominant sound between the sky and the earth.
The icy killing intent soared to the peak in an instant, causing all the creatures in Wind Whisper City to feel terror originating from the depth of their bloodlines.
A dazzling light exploded all of a sudden, causing the nearby Knight Maiko to lose his sight momentarily.
Knight Maiko immediately abandoned his offensive posture, forcedly contracted his limbs to protect the vital parts of his body. Then, he was swept up by an overwhelming and unstoppable surge, thrown out, and he crashed heavily into the house by the road.
However, a feeling of ecstasy filled Knight Maiko's heart like never before.
He finally knew, Duke St. Gregorian had not abandoned the Westland.
This was a meticulously planned assassination—targeted at the Orc Emperor Saruman!
