The document was worded with such severity that Charles dared not treat it with negligence. With just enough time for a brief farewell to Anne, he hurriedly left Strasbourg with all his subordinates.
This time, Sophia Garanord was not part of his team.
Neither were those junior brothers and sisters from Sheffield University.
This return to Strasbourg could be considered full of gains for Charles, whether in terms of his official position or personal strength, both of which had been enhanced. Aside from feeling slightly reluctant to leave Anne, his mood was rather pleasant.
Upon leaving Strasbourg, Charles regrouped with the troops stationed outside the city and headed straight for Machu Picchu. Despite encountering small bands of beastman stragglers along the way, no troubles arose. After all, he was now commanding the main force of the Westwind Knights and Labyrinth Guardians, strong enough to take on any beastman tribe head-on.
