章節 150: Empire of Light before the War (2)

Outside the towering walls of the royal castle in the capital of the Empire of Light, the training fields bustled with activity. The clang of swords and the grunt of exertion filled the air as the Heroes, clad in armor and determination, honed their skills with relentless focus. It was their final day before embarking on a journey that would take them far beyond the borders of their homeland—to another continent, another world.

Guards patrolled the perimeter, their watchful eyes often drifting toward the Heroes. There was something different in the air today, a weight that hung over the fields. The guards, seasoned warriors who had seen much, couldn't help but admire the discipline and intensity the Heroes displayed. These were not ordinary recruits. They were humanity's finest, chosen by fate itself, preparing for a conflict unlike any they had ever known.
