Chapter 223: Song of the Betrayed (3)
The sun set today.
The gentle heat of the sunset faded, and the cold night came.
Despite the chaos, no one came into the Automaton Knight School until nightfall.
It's easy to understand why, just by looking at the flames rising from various parts of the capital.
Although the plague caused people to scatter for a moment, no one actually died. Moreover, everything that could be broken had been destroyed, and everyone who could be killed had been killed.
This place is where the hunt has ended.
The rioters, the citizens who became part of this madness, didn’t suffer properly.

They had defeated the enemies of society.
Yet, it was still cold, and they were hungry.
