Chương 2265: Much To Discuss

As Rui left the Royal Palace of Vargard, he could not help but direct his gaze to the town around him that stretched as far as the eye could see. The town of Vargard was the capital of the Kandrian Empire and was one that was worthy of its status with its illustrious streets and well-adorned buildings that gave the entire town a vibe of power and glory.

Yet, when Rui spread his senses across the entire town, he couldn't help but notice that it was muted in its energy that particular day. 

The streets were more silent than he was accustomed to while the air tingled.

"I suppose civilians found the evacuation to be more stressful than expected," Rui lightly observed. "It's been a month, and the effects of the battle with the Sekigahara Confederate still linger in the air."

It didn't even matter that they had won that battle.

Just the prospect of being at war put many people in a tense state.

Not without reason, of course.
