Somewhere near the place where the citizens ended and the defensive line began, Norcet, his son and the Mage were all standing in a personal barrier that reduced the risk of them being injured in case a stampede broke out.
The defensive line, which had actually come into existence just a few minutes ago, was comprised of Fighters from all the Kingdoms combined.
Norcet was keeping his son's eyes closed, so when everyone around them started to scream when they saw the golden mosquitoes shoot forward to attack the citizens, his son started asking what was going on.
Yet, although everyone was scared thinking that the flimsy barrier wouldn't hold, Norcet just said, "It's fine, son. The King has a plan. And he won't fail."
Indeed, he now dumbly believed in the King, just like his son during the event.
