章 388: I won't be anyone's puppet

"Hey, Alex, what are you thinking about?" Lilith asked, noticing Alex's spaced-out expression. Her voice snapped Alex back to reality.

"Nothing, just thinking about some things," Alex replied vaguely. "What are those elves doing running off to the Holy Court?"

Knight City didn't accept commoners, let alone Freelancers. Its inhabitants were descendants of knights, raised from birth to become holy warriors. Therefore, Alex had little knowledge of the Holy Court's inner workings.

The forest elves residing in Knight City were a better source of information for Lilith.

"It seems they're preparing to leave," Lilith replied, recalling the information she had received. The city's inhabitants were packing their belongings, including the elf king.

"Leave?"

Alex looked puzzled. The Holy Court was one of the most powerful factions on the Arsen continent. If they were planning to leave, it meant they were leaving the continent altogether.
