Chapter 111 (2/2)

“I do not know, Your Excellency, I have already ordered Moliere to go and take a look,” the Captain of his guard answered “Perhaps it’s a fire that has been deliberately set by the enemy”

Yes, that ht was that this all was a trap, but then he realized that this less After all, they could easily bypass the gates, they only had to cross the slope and then they were already outside Setting soless, after all, an organized team wouldn’t need much time to put the fire out

The correct use of this tactic would be to set up soldiers at the inner side of the walls, ould wait until the fire had expanded all over the city, and then when the enemy’s troops started to panic that would be the time for their own surprise attack to start If it was it’s done like this, it can easily disrupt the enemy’s formation, maybe even force them to retreat But as he had said before, with no one to operate the trap, it was less

At this ates black se And when he looked back at the fire at the North Gate he could see that it was spreading at s had been filled with straw It didn’t take long until the first cries fro that some of their houses were already lit

This can’t be right… Duke Frances thought, the fire is co hich to feed the fire, there was only an open space! But if there was nothing, how can the fire spread so fast? Wait… suddenly a horrifying thought popped up within his mind, could it be that Garcia Wimbledon had secretly recruited a witch?

Frances reassuringly touched the God’s Stone of Retaliation which hung around his neck, calnited by a witch, as long as that is the case I can directly walk through it After all, with this stone that demonic fire simply cannot hurt uards is also wearing this thing, so this fire can’t threaten us at all As for the freedmen, who have no money to donate to the church, I just don’t have the time to attend to them

Regardless of the fact that he possessed such a stone, the city had still becoerous, so he decided to flee to the war cale City, but also wait for the new King to return with the cavalry When he thought his next steps through, he iuards the co the ride you will blow the horn to gather all of our troops”

“As you command!”

Everyone iroup caun to cover the whole city, already settingfrom the fire became so hot that they were forced to retreat In addition, the co inside their houses behind closed doors, were now on the streets and fleeing fro the whole streets with people They becahts were unable to ainst this panic stricken people fleeing to the only open space available which wasn’t burning yet At thiswould be consu flames and smoke

“Everyone calet to the well Froht this fire,” Duke Frances quickly gave some orders, “Don’t try to save the houses, they are out of control Just extinguish the burning obstacles on the streets, so that we get a path out of the city Don’t stop the horn signal, let other people knohere we are!”

“Sir!” shouted a knight who caht didn’t even wait until his horse had stopped, instead, he immediately jumped off the horse When he took a closer look he discovered that it was the knight sent to the North Gate by his Captain “Sir, at the North Gate we are unable to get the fire under control!”

“What did you say?” Frances couldn’t believe it, so he had to ask again, “You are unable to fight the fire?”

“The fla on this black water,” she said quickly, “Not only is it not extinguished ater, it is even quickly spreading over it, and now the whole northern city is burning!”

“An immortal fire,” Frances murmured, “Yes, it has to be demonic fire” And then the Duke shouted, “Do not panic! This is Garcia taking advantage of the ability of this evil witches! As long as you wear God’s Stone of Retaliation you’re safe! Even if these fla, they simply cannot hurt you!”

“So that’s the reason, you were so benevolent” Moliere subconsciously stroked her chest, “Sir, what should we do?”

“With the God’s Stone of Retaliation we don’t need to fear anything! Everyone launch, ill break through!” The Duke waved his hand, “These de as ear the God’s Stone of Retaliation, it will disappear without a trace!” He paused, “Moliere, you will lead the first group of people out, I will stay here and wait for the people who are still co”

The feht nodded in confirmation, “Sir, you have to take care of yourself, pay attention that you don’t!”

Then she turned around and rushed without any hesitation towards the raging fire at the end of the street
