The huge explosion woke Haite, who was already a light sleeper.
Since the evening, the owner of 'Haite Furniture Store' had felt uneasy, as if something big was about to happen.
And at this moment, upon hearing the enormous explosion, Haite's complexion changed drastically as he rolled over and sat up.
Because—
The direction from which the explosion came was Elta Square!
'The Bell Tower is in trouble!'
Without bothering to take a closer look, as soon as this thought crossed his mind, the 'Haite Furniture Store' owner crawled towards the secret passage under his bed.
Relying on his exquisite carpentry skills, this furniture store owner had crafted for himself an emergency escape chute-like passage.
This passage led to a secret room ten meters underground.
Once he entered the secret room, the furniture store owner began to count silently.
"180, 179, 178..."
That was what the great person had told him.
