章節 512: Abe

As two knights were patrolling the area, the capital shook. A mana wave exploded from the ground to cover the residential houses, but there was no destruction. Instead, lights came from the windows, shining as bright as the sun.

A hand grabbed his shoulder, prompting Abe to look behind him. It was none other than his fellow knight, looking as if he had seen a ghost. The knight looked around the empty street with confusion.

"No one is coming out, even after that mana wave," muttered his friend, and Abe realized he was right. "I know that our shift is over, but we need to investigate the matter."

Abe didn't want to waste his precious time, but he knew the capital was weird lately. There were rumors among the knights about a possible civil war, so any slacking was punished severely, which might draw suspicion to his identity.
