The City Lord had been praying that nothing would go wrong during this meeting. Just one day... Just this one day had to pass peacefully, and everything would be fine.
Unfortunately, fate had other plans. His expression darkened as he observed the seal enveloping the entire city. Something was clearly amiss.
When the Angels emerged from hiding, even he was stunned. As the City Lord, he had no idea that so many Angels were hiding within his city, nor did he know when they had entered.
It was as if the Angels had come prepared to eliminate every High Clan. The mere thought of the consequences of their actions and the future of the city sent chills down his spine, drenching his back in cold sweat.
He dropped to his knees, cursing the city's ill fortune. Yet, he hadn't lost all hope.
