Capítulo 405: 405: Sinking Feeling

There was silence around the clearing as soon as the Saintess finished speaking. People seemed to be having difficulty warping their heads around what the Saintess had said.

Princess Yunjin's silence, far from calming the situation, seemed to fuel the fire, intensifying the already charged atmosphere.

The news of a demon attack broke the tense atmosphere at such a time.

The guard that brought the news ran as fast as he could toward the centre of the gathering and Princess Yunjin. He panted as he tried to gather his breath and tell the princess what happened.

But he tripped before he could reach the princess.

The impact caused him to bleed, but the guard did not flinch as he raised his head to look directly at the princess and ask her for her assistance.

"Princess Yunjin, please help outside out as well. We can no longer hold on. The demons are getting too strong for us to handle at this rate. What can we do now?"
