บท 525: A Thorn

The gates of Livia were thrown open after everyone deserted them. A great fog covered the city's streets, hindering everyone's vision as they walked into it. Diana stared at the scene with wary eyes, knowing that within the fog lay the vampires.

"Lord of Runera, as for the knights..." the young captain stepped up, and Diana nodded his way. The vampires were allowed to grow rampant in this city and devour the knights left inside.

This proves that their decision was right when they teleported the citizens of Runera. It was a costly operation that exhausted their workforce, time, and resources, but it was worth it in the end.

The captain was relieved with her approval to save the knights on their way. However, Diana wasn't going to move out of her way with her race against time. Still, the plan was already to strike the capital from four different sides, as a special unit will be responsible for infiltrating the royal palace and saving the saint.
