章 339: Confusion

There were three main gates to this city. One led to the ocean, one led to the forest from where we came, and the last one led to a cruel desert. The desert route was abandoned as it was almost summer. 

Since most of the town was already heading in different directions, from halfway we didn't need to fly above. Instead, we hid in the alleyways and slowly moved forward. This was definitely a better solution.

There wasn't anyone around- not even kids. The only people lying around were mostly dead ones who got trampled over. Some were barely alive but- all I could do was heal them slightly, from faraway.

We were moving quite fast but it almost felt like an eternity as we gradually moved forward. 

The city felt like a ghost town and the emperor hadn't quite done anything yet. He was just standing way above the city- not even searching for anything. He was just standing there.
