章 1020: Slap!

Kana appeared in the mountains soon after. She looked down at the mountain terrain below her and squinted her eyes as she looked for the reason as to why the monsters here were attacking their workers. She could see the camp and the soldiers all surrounding it patrolling to make sure there were no monsters in sight. "It looks normal…." Kana furrowed her brow. She watched as a cart loaded with materials was starting to make its way down the trail. It was surrounded by six guards, three on each side. It only got about half a mile away before ten monsters appeared out of nowhere and rushed the cart, causing the soldiers and the one driving it to go on guard. 

Seeing this, Kana wrinkled her nose as she snapped her fingers, making the monsters disappear. She flew down and landed on the ground in front of the cart. "Empress!"

One of the soldiers called out. "Is this how it always happens? Do the monsters only attack when you try to move the materials?"
