Located in the western part of the Ashtar Empire, the cities in the mountains are now on full alert.
Hajar City, a city that almost lives in peace, is now forced to recruit all the young people and useful fighting forces in the city who can fight.
A lot of things happened in the human kingdom in half a year.
The changes in the church have always been a concern for the entire human kingdom, and now it is happening all over the world.
A lot of effort has been spent to push the teachings of the Holy Light to the commanding heights of all people.
Because the Holy Light pays attention to benevolence and humility, these qualities are what every king needs.
They need a harmonious and stable environment.
But all this was broken during the mission of the dwarf kingdom The rebellion of the Holy Light Archbishop and the emergence of the Dark King completely changed the structure of the church on the mainland.
For a time, various opinions were widely circulated in various places: they will come back Madness rules fear and pain It is inevitable for mankind to escape the disaster, foreshadowing the end of the world They will come back and humans will know.
Although many in office did not pay attention to the remarks of these insidious villains, a small number of people did believe them to be true.
Heretical churches began to appear privately, and believers continued to spread the doctrine in squares, lively bars, and dark basements.
Politicians in most countries have begun to realize that this phenomenon needs to be eliminated, because once the Holy Light doctrine is broken, it means that many years of faith will be rewritten, and in order to reduce losses, they have been testing on a small scale without alarming more people. case.
For a time, every country on the continent was more or less busy with this matter, but they were all fighting in private, and only one country almost rose to the surface.
That is the Asta Empire, where the new king has just ascended the throne.
As a country where the Holy Light Archbishop rebelled, the suppression of the Holy Light's teachings is obvious.
Shortly after the end of the Dwarf War, the Asta Empire experienced a national mourning.
The previous king, King Rhine, finally died in his palace, still looking terrified when he died.
His ears were sealed with wax oil.
It is said that he did it himself in order to prevent himself from hearing the whispers.
This king who is famous in history was completely crazy and experienced three major wars in his life.
The first Patriotic War with Atulan, and later the Wilderness War to the final Atulan Revenge.
This country once again reached the pinnacle of history during his reign, but his successor, King Dastan, conducted a thorough investigation of the Holy Light Church when he took office.
The reason is that Benedictus was responsible for looking after the King of the Rhine, and this was all planned.
But as the purge began, people discovered that the newly appointed King of Dastan was not simply avenging his father, but wanted to return all power to his own hands again.
He secretly carried out a large number of assassinations in private, and also Constantly investigate the secrets of city lords everywhere.
It has completely violated the rule of all political parties.
What the previous generation of kings did not dare to do, in the hands of this young king, he finally started.
This is why the city of Hajar embarked on this path.
The general sent by the King of the Rhine to enforce local military power became the trigger.
The cathedral has existed for so many years.
Many local officials and the Magicians Association have more or less connections with them.
However, this time the military department wants to thoroughly investigate whether there are still people like Benedictus.
However, he was searched everywhere and was eventually assassinated by officials from Hajar City.
As soon as this incident came out, it meant that the local government and the imperial capital were in confrontation.
Not only Hajar City, but similar situations occurred in many cities.
Tensions between the lords of various places and the King of Dastan are about to reach a point of escalation.
Therefore, various places are actively expanding their armies and the entire city is on high alert.
"Get up, you lazy pigs, it's still nap time."
In one camp, the commander woke up everyone in the room.
The paladin Al and the warlock Xila are also among them, and everyone who can be recruited has been summoned, even the children of former noble families.
This was the signal to change the shift at midnight, waking them up to patrol the city.
It was said that the empire's army had crossed the mountains these days and would soon arrive at Hajar City.
In order to prevent assassins from sneaking in, a large number of people can only be arranged to patrol every day.
"Have you heard any news recently?"
After the two people walked out of the barracks, they followed their usual route and walked on the dark streets.

"There is no news.
According to my grandfather, there are not many troops sent by the empire this time.
They should only be threatening and will not really start a war with the local area.
As a king, he should be very clear about the consequences of civil war."
"I've heard of this, but I heard that the King of Dastan doesn't care about this at all.
He is determined to take back the rights to the place."
It is impossible to completely eliminate the evil that has always existed in the empire without losing money.
It depends on whether the little king is a powerful hawk or a bastard who does whatever he wants without knowing where the sky is high.
But one thing that is certain is that the lords of various places will never sit still and wait for death.
I heard that the local lords closer to the imperial capital have chosen to surrender, while only those a little further away are still resisting.
"Hajar City is a very troublesome place.
We face the Western Desert.
We have all been to that place.
We have also seen the fighting power there.
We have also seen the current civil strife in the empire.
Since we prevent their rebellion, we also have to face the pressure of the imperial army."
"It is precisely because of this that Hajar City can only stay closed and defend this place."
The two led the team to patrol the streets in the dark night.
The weather has become colder and colder.
In previous years, it snows at this time, but this year the heavy snow seems to be very slow.
The whole city is looking forward to this snow, because most people in the imperial capital have never seen snow in the west.
If there is a heavy snowstorm like last year, thousands of people may die in the mountains.
When the time comes, they will have no choice but to retreat without backup supplies. hiss One can only hope.
The two of them tightened their clothes.
It was so cold just after they came out of the warm quilt.
It feels like it's going to snow soon.
On such a cold day, I usually sit at home and warm up by the fire.
Al and Xila passed through a familiar street and alley, which was the former headquarters of the military.
Due to friction with the Imperial Army, there were still scars from the battle here.
The streets and alleys were dark.
“I remember this place” "Yes, this place originally belonged to the Lucifergus family a long time ago."
Xiela said.
"Rias asked me to say that she is the most special among our group.
She has been like this since she was a child.
She has never liked being around us other nobles.
I never thought she would grow up to be like that."
"It can only be said that the fate is different."
Xila looked at the dark street, with a strange green color in his eyes.
His sense of demons has become stronger and stronger over the years
