Chapter 284: Ch 284: Into the Woods - Part 2
"I... I was hired! Hired by the Temple of Moras! Not just me. Lots of us. Drivers, merchants, guides—all of us planted to lure powerful individuals into isolated spots."
The driver cried.
"For what?"
Bruce asked.
"To... to extract mana. They’re collecting it. From mages. Warriors. Anyone with strong life force. They use it in rituals. Blood mana circles. It’s all for their god—they’re trying to summon Moras into the world."
The driver said, face pale.
Kyle’s eyes narrowed.
"So they’ve already started."
The driver nodded frantically.
"Y-Yes! They’ve been active for months now. You must’ve seen the signs—strange disappearances, mercenaries going missing during travel. This is all part of it!"
Bruce gave the man a cold look.
