Chapter 108: Plans
Within two days, word of the capital incident spread like widefire.
From all corners of the kingdom, everyone and their mothers heard about strangers dressed in black robes setting explosives all over the capital.
No one really knew what that was about, but speculations around the incident were that an enemy kingdom was declaring war on the kingdom and that the attack on the capital was their way of saying they could reach the heart of the Luntheria Kingdom with ease.
Others believe this was the work of some underground and ancient group making a show of their power, and probably making demands of the kingdom. However, another kingdom declaring war had the most attraction.
After all, word had reached people about the kingdom losing a large portion of their borderlands. The Growian Kingdom had taken advantage of the chaos to wage an attack on the surrounding towns and villages, seizing strategic points and resource-filled areas.
While this was an issue the Royals would be dealing with and were already making preparations, they chose to focus more on their internal affairs. Rebuilding efforts were already underway and people were getting the help they needed.
Fortunately for the Royals, no word about the almost demonic invasion reached the ears of the normal folks. Royal Commander Lance made sure no word about the demon almost reaching the castle circulated.
The subjugation mission in the Achil forest was a different matter that was a bit challenging to hide. However, because the demons were dealt with around the dungeon, it didn’t hold too much weight.
It was not the first time a demon had ventured into human territory, and it certainly won’t be the last time either. Only if they knew those demons were general-level class capable of razing cities to the ground.
