Capítulo 224: Barricade

As the guard captain finished rolling along the ground, the others drew their weapons and surrounded Lucius in a semi-circular formation. He made no moves to engage the others and simply stood and waited.

Before making his move, he had realized that a handful of people were watching them. A few of them stayed just outside of his sensory range and he felt like a few others had managed to evade his nose and ears. However, the one he was waiting for was making his way down from the wall to join the other guards.

"Stop at once!" A loud voice boomed, making everyone sheathe their weapons immediately.

The voice came from a man that Lucius had not spoken with directly, but was somewhat aware of. He participated in various training drills for the military and the guard units at the capital and many people knew him as a very harsh instructor; hence the rapid response to his command.
