Chapter 323: Facing The Fear
The tension could even be felt in the air as the empire’s forces were mobilized one after another.
Spade stood at the entrance of the palace, and the royal guards stood not far away from him. Like everyone else, he was wearing a combat suit and not his usual royal robe.
He silently stood at the entrance as he gradually swept his eyes around before turning around and looking at the palace behind him. Moments later, his vision seemed to overlap with the scenes of the past.
