Kapitel 494: The Invasion

The mages immediately started smiling.

Benjamin arrived later than expected, and the situation at hand was already temporarily resolved. However, it was relieving to see Benjamin return without any hiccups.

Though…. It seemed he did not intend to return the General to the soldiers…

Benjamin flew down from the sky and landed in front of the mages. He was shaking his head.

"No. These men cannot leave either." His tone was definitive and solid – leaving no room for negotiation.

The crowd was bewildered. The soldiers who heard the exchange cast wary looks at Benjamin and the mages.

"What happened? Why can’t they leave?" The king frowned, obviously confused by the sudden turn of events.

"It’s a lot more than a simple "what happened"." Benjamin’s words were grim. "Here’s the latest news: Icor attacked the borders of Carretas without warning just a few moments ago. Now, it is highly probable that the border has fallen."

"Wh-What?"

Everyone was stunned.
