Capítulo 177: Improving the equipment

Alpheo strode purposefully through the bustling streets of Yarzat, his small frame passing through the sea of market stalls and merchants peddling their goods. Around him, the city thrummed with life—voices raised in haggling. But despite the lively chaos surrounding him, Alpheo remained focused.

Flanking him were twenty of his closest guards, their presence an imposing wall of steel that kept the curious at bay. Among them, at the head of the contingent, was Vrosk—the man who had saved Alpheo's life during his fierce battle with Arkawatt. Vrosk, a hulking figure with a scar tracing the side of his jaw, walked with the confidence of a man who knew his worth. After the attempt on his life during the siege of Confluendi , Alpheo had swiftly promoted him to the head of his personal guard based on previous achievements,as he seriously started to consider his safety.
