Kapitel 364: The Knight Intern Maris (End) The Loud Voice

The sun was beginning to sink behind the towering buildings of the capital, its fading light casting long, golden shadows across the marketplace. Sophie stood with Sharon, Maris, and the other three knights from her squad, their patrol finally coming to an end. The air was alive with the sounds of the city winding down—merchants calling out their last-minute deals, children laughing as they chased each other around, the clatter of carts and hooves on the cobblestone roads.

"Alright, everyone," Sophie said, clapping her hands lightly to gather the knights' attention. Her smile was warm, though a hint of weariness showed in her eyes. "Our shift is over. You've all done well today. It's time to disperse and rest." She paused, glancing at each of them. "Stay alert, even off duty. We've had quite a day—I want you all ready for anything."
