"Thud, thud, thud."
Colin opened the door to find a guard from the St. Hilde family standing outside.
Upon seeing Colin, he immediately reported in a loud voice, "Sir, the Royal Palace is now under the control of the Silver Moon Guards. They won't let us leave."
As expected.
Colin was not surprised.
The Modewen family would indeed want to contain the news now to allow enough time for a response.
Seeing that Colin hadn't spoken, a bloodthirsty fierceness appeared in the guard's eyes. He growled, "Sir, shall we fight our way out?"
"How many of you are there? Can you break out of Silver Moon City?"
"We can try. Death will not halt our advance!"
The guard's loyalty and bravery amazed Colin, but he still shook his head and said:
"No, don't make reckless sacrifices. You're more useful staying here. I'll figure out a way to get the message out; you just hold this place."
"Yes, sir."
"By the way, has Knight Teld not woken up yet?"
