�Huh?!�

Some of the soldiers by the central tower started to gasp.

Tap.

They could see someone stepping on the ledge as they were landing on the castle wall. Crown prince Valentino�s expression changed. Some harsh words reached his ears at that moment.

�Just full of bullshit again.�

Commander Cale Henituse. He was the one who had just landed on the wall.

��Commander.�

Valentino called out to Cale with a shocked expression. Cale approached Valentino and started to speak. He had his usual calm and confident expression on his face.

�I flew over right away with flight magic. I felt as if I should say it in person.�

�Say what?�

What did he come here to say?

Valentino suddenly felt an odd sense of anticipation. He couldn�t explain it, but he felt as if this person whom he had not known for more than a few days would be able to take care of his problems.

He heard the bishop�s voice at that moment.

�Are you saying that the fact that we are the only ones who can purify the dead mana is bullshit? Commander Cale, you dare to speak like that to us right-�

That angry voice could not finish his sentence.

�We will catch them.�

There was certainty in Cale�s voice. Valentino followed Cale and looked outside the central tower. Over thirty ships had already started to move. They were headed north as they had all expected. The Bears had also now arrived back at central shores and were slowly getting onto the ships.

It seemed impossible.

He heard Cale�s voice again at that moment.

�All of the northern citizens and merchants will be killed if we let them go. I�m sure they have more dead mana bombs.�

It was what everybody else was thinking as well, however, this did not seem to provide any light to the darkness surrounding them right now.

However, Cale�s next words were something that nobody had heard before.

�Your highness, do you know the story of people running away into the Land of Death?�
