Capítulo 875: Problem

Vyn, standing just behind Candence suddenly tapped him lightly on the shoulder. The fortress commander jolted out of his stunned state, realizing that Atticus was steadily approaching.

'Shit,' Candence thought, his chest tightening.

This wasn't just any visitor, this was the apex of humanity. His importance far outweighed anyone else in the fortress. Allowing him to approach without a proper greeting wasn't just disrespectful, it was outright unacceptable.

Candence moved quickly, followed closely by Vyn and the other commanders. Within seconds, they met Atticus halfway.

Candence lowered his head into a deep bow, surprising even himself.

"Apex Atticus," he said, his voice steady despite the turmoil raging inside him. "Welcome to Fort Echohelm."

Behind him, the commanders followed suit, bowing deeply. The warriors scattered across the courtyard mirrored the gesture, their respect and awe palpable.
