Black Flame City, a wide main road extends from the city gate, leading straight to the gate of the City Lord's Residence.
A long procession moves steadily along the main road, headed by the Duke of Virginia. The old Duke rides a black-scaled steed, his expression as dark as water, his aged yet sharp eyes fixated on the end of the road.
At this moment, the Duke of Virginia resembles an old armored general heading to the battlefield.
Behind the old Duke, on either side, the rest of the procession is equally silent and tense, even Wild, who was cheerful earlier, now keeps a tight face, fearing he might burst into laughter.
As the group delves deeper into the city, the surrounding air pressure seems to drop significantly.
Soon, they arrive at the gate of the City Lord's Residence. For some reason, there are no guards in sight, and the main gate stands open.
"Is Savami inside?" the old Duke asked in a deep voice.
