## Chapter 54: Magic Puppet
The war ended in a way nobody expected, thanks to Su Nan’s intervention.
The enemy suffered over 1,300 casualties, with another 600 or 700 captured. Many others fled, their whereabouts unknown.
Black Stone City’s losses were relatively small, with less than 200 soldiers killed. However, over twenty Blackrock Beasts were destroyed, leaving Bred heartbroken.
Despite the losses, most were overjoyed. After all, defeating the rebels with such minimal casualties was a remarkable feat.
The entire Black Stone City was buzzing with joy after the victory. That evening, Kei hosted a celebratory feast in the inner castle’s banquet hall. Knights gathered, drinking and sharing stories. Even some of the injured knights, their limbs wrapped in bandages, joined in the revelry.
After a round of drinks with the commanders in the front hall, Kei found Su Nan resting in the council chamber. But instead of resting, Su Nan was petting a cat.
“When did you get a cat?”
Kei looked at the white cat perched on Su Nan’s lap, surprised.
