Capítulo 127: Exploration [2]

The more I stayed in the town the more apparent it became to me that what I had previously seen was just a facade.

Walking around the cobblestone streets to head for the main entrance of the town, I could feel the gloom on the people's faces.

It hadn't been obvious before, but it was clear now.

"….."

My steps halted as I spotted a figure in the distance.

He was the captain. Currently taking care of the wounded, his face was pale as he ran around.

"Someone get me some water! Heal him up!"

Even now, he was still working.

Despite his pale face and the fact that he was limping, he put it all to help those who were in need. It was a scene that would move anyone. 

But there was something about him that didn't quite make sense to me. So much so that I found myself moving towards him. 

"What are the injuries? Any dead? Alright, good! It seems like the reinforcements have been of help."

"Excuse me."

"Uh?"
