Chapter 1604 - 1074: Crisis at the Front Line
"I never expected the Tribunal to possess such formidable strength..."
Looking at the immense steel church before him, Captain Meld couldn’t help but marvel. After receiving the King’s command, he immediately led a team to the hillside where the noise was emanating. Although the hill was near the Royal City and not considered dangerous, the noise was so loud that rumors of a Demon Clan invasion began to circulate, prompting him to rush over.
"May I ask how you achieved this?"
Staring at the enormous church made entirely of metal, Captain Meld swallowed hard and questioned Duanmu Huai, who merely shrugged.
"Trade secret."
"...Alright, but next time, if you plan on doing something similar, please notify us in advance. This is, after all, the Royal City, and it would be troublesome if it caused an alarming disturbance."
Captain Meld had somewhat come to understand Duanmu Huai’s temperament and, seeing his unwillingness to elaborate, didn’t persist on the topic. He quickly shifted the conversation, realizing that the person before him was a Hero summoned from an Isekai to save the world, making this scenario less ludicrous.
"But, it turns out to be just the right timing. Even if this commotion wasn’t caused by you, Brave Lord, I still wanted to discuss the matter of the Demon Clan’s invasion."
At this point, Captain Meld’s expression turned serious.
