Chapter 71: The Central Plaza Talks
The Central Plaza of Godshine City was packed more than usual because of the reopening of the Labyrinth. So, many people were ready to dive again.
There were several groups of Silver Rank too, who garnered the most attention—especially those who were higher level within the Silver Rank.
It meant they could soon advance to Gold Rank, a rank everyone aspired to reach one day.
Though, the topic of discussion was still the massacre of the Ashborn Clan. The Hunter Organisation was still busy with the investigation and had failed to find even a single clue.
In the end, the majority of the people concluded that the Ashborn Clan might have offended a Master Rank Hunter—or maybe even one of those legendary Grandmaster Rank Hunters.
That was the only explanation people could think of, as the Ashborn Clan was wiped out so quickly and there weren’t any clues left behind.
Using this opportunity, King Edward Corelhelm declared war on the Kelar Kingdom, blaming everything on them. Many people knew he was just using the opportunity, but the common population was enraged.
It wasn’t that tough to spread hate for a rivaling Kingdom, after all. Constant small wars between them didn’t help either.
So, now the two Kingdoms were preparing for a full-blown war, even hiring Hunters to fight for them. They had huge armies, but hiring Hunters also helped a lot.
Most importantly, they were focusing on the various Guilds and Gold-Rank Clans of the Kingdom. They would play the most important part in the war, after all.
Normally, they wouldn’t have supported such rash decisions because Edward was weaker than the King of Kelar Kingdom.
