Capítulo 232: Chaos [1]

Bang—! 

I hastily sat up the moment the explosion sounded.

"What happened...?" 

I looked in the direction of where the noise came from. 

"Reinforcements?" 

Were we going to get rescued from this place? My heartbeat accelerated at the thought, but Owl-Mighty was quick to pour cold water over my thoughts. 

"It's unlikely." 

I turned my head to look at it. 

"Why?" 

"....If it were reinforcements, then they wouldn't be so obvious. In fact, considering how important you all are to the Empire, I'm sure they would send that lady." 

"That lady?" 

I looked at the owl in confusion, but seeing that it refused to elaborate, I could only remain silent. 

'Who is he talking about...? And why do I notice something strange when he mentioned her?'

It almost looked scared, but at the same time didn't. 

....It was hard to tell.
