Chapter 1172: Return to Bunga
It was under two hundred kilometres to Bunga, not even two hours of flight time, even though they detoured once because Hawk thought that he saw giant mice, which turned out to be an oddly shaped species of sheep.
Hawk returned to his space this time, and Karl landed within sight of the walls so that the guards could see him transform and escort Dana to the gates.
The gate guards bowed politely as they approached, and motioned for them to place their hand on a round plinth.
"Please attempt to activate the plinth, and then place any weapons you are carrying into storage." The guard declared in the bored tone of wageworkers everywhere.
Dana put her blades into her inventory, then placed her hand on the plinth, and shrugged as nothing happened.
Karl wasn’t wearing anything but slacks and a shirt with the sleeves rolled to his elbows, so he just placed his hand on the plinth and inserted some mana.
[Welcome back, former City Lord.]
{City Functions initializing.}
{Please Wait}
The guards were about to motion them into the city, then they noticed the glowing words on the surface of the plinth.
"Former... City Lord? Uh, I think we need a supervisor. Definitely a supervisor. Maybe the Captain. The Captain will know what to do when something actually happens." The guard stammered.
Dana silently stared at Karl, who only shrugged in response.
