��God.�

It seemed to be a god�s rage.

The noble�s hand started to shake.

�Why would the lake that the god left from start to burn-�

However, he could not finish his thoughts.

�Aaaaaah!�

�F, f, fire!�

He looked down below the terrace. The people who had been shocked by this unexpected event finally started to react.

There were some who were running away and others who kneeled and started to pray. He could see people reacting in many different ways. People may end up getting hurt if the plaza ended up in chaos.

However, the noble was not worried.

Chhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-

He could see vapor starting to rise.

The fire on the wooden pillar was put out.

The sound of the fire being put out made people stop moving. The mages had poured water onto the wooden pillar, leaving behind only the charred wooden pillar.

At that moment, a loud voice that was amplified with magic echoed throughout the plaza.

�Fire can be put out.�

The noble turned his head to the side.

He had heard some information earlier in the day. Duke Sekka was going to visit the wooden pillar in the plaza.

The Sekka Duchy�s current Duke. He was standing on a terrace and speaking to the crowd down in the plaza. The citizens could finally see the Duke.

The current Duke, Rock Sekka, was still known as the, �Guardian Knight,� to the people. Rock started to speak with a firm expression.

�This is the Paerun Kingdom. Fire cannot defeat our Paerun Kingdom.�

The Paerun Kingdom was located in the coldest part of the continent.

That fact actually did not have much to do with putting out the fire. In fact, the fact that it was dry made it more susceptible to fires. However, people started to calm down after hearing the Guardian Knight speak.
