The God's Games

What intrigued him more was how they claimed to have come from Ulon Town, yet the demon army was nearing the town.

How were they so relaxed and able to make weapons?

The guard captain could sense what Viscount Hereford was thinking from his expression.

Without waiting for his instructions, he bluntly asked, "Ulon Town? Wasn\'t that place already taken over by the demons? How could you have come from there?"

Spicy Flavor Fairy replied, "Demons? They were wiped out long ago by the heroes summoned by the God of Light. Ulon Town is perfectly safe now."

Viscount Hereford who is shocked, leaned over the wall to get a better look, but realizing his improper behavior, he quickly stood upright again while listening as the guard captain continued the conversation.

The guard captain was equally surprised and said, "That\'s impossible. Everyone knows the God of Light abandoned humanity. How could He summon the heroes now?"

Spicy Flavor Fairy regretted using this approach, feeling annoyed by the repeated questions.

He then replied while holding back his frustration, "There\'s nothing impossible about it. The fact that the people of Ulon Town are still alive is proof enough."

Saradin stroked his chin, frowning.

If what they said was true, and the God of Light had really summoned the heroes to save the people of Ulon Town, then defeating the demons wouldn\'t be surprising.

It was common knowledge that Light-type Magic was the demons\' weakness.

If the God of Light hadn\'t stopped responding to humans and Light-type Magic hadn\'t faded, humanity wouldn\'t have lost the fight against the demons, nor would they have lost faith in the God of Light.

But why would the God of Light suddenly start responding to humans again?

Viscount Hereford was skeptical and gave the guard captain a look.

The guard captain immediately said, "How do I know you\'re not lying?"

Spicy Flavor Fairy felt his patience wearing thin.

He cast a Radiant Arrow spell toward the wall.

Five arrows made of light appeared out of thin air, shining with a silver glow, and flew up to the wall, embedding themselves deeply behind the guard captain.

Viscount Hereford was so scared that he started trembling and quickly hid behind Saradin.

Spicy Flavor Fairy asked, "Is that enough proof for you?"

Saradin studied the remaining Radiant Arrows for a moment and nodded his head, "It\'s definitely the Radiant Arrow spell from the Light-type Magic category. Very few people use this magic anymore. He must be a priest."

Viscount Hereford then remembered that Saradin was an intermediate-level Warlock, so it was unlikely he couldn\'t defend against such a simple spell.

Seeing Viscount Hereford was a bit upset, Saradin explained, "I just wanted to verify if they were telling the truth."

Viscount Hereford accepted the explanation and was about to order the guard captain to let the people below in, but he hesitated, recalling that Saradin didn\'t have a good opinion of the Church of Light.

He glanced at Saradin for guidance.

Saradin who is unconcerned, said, "We Warlocks don\'t usually like people from the Church of Light, but the situation is different now. The demon army is approaching, and if they have information about the demons, let them in. We might learn something useful from them."

Viscount Hereford nodded his head in agreement, and the guard captain didn\'t need to say anything more.

He simply ordered the gate to be lowered.

Hanjun watched the whole scene from outside.

He raised an eyebrow and jumped down from the cart.

He then swaggered into Lindblum City.

The gate finally opened.

After entering the city, the soldiers closed the gate behind them again.

One of the townspeople couldn\'t help but ask, "Why did you close the gate? What if other people want to enter Lindblum City?"

The soldier who was following the orders, replied indifferently, "If everyone wanted to enter Lindblum City, how could the city hold so many people? They would have to find another place."

The townspeople exchanged glances, realizing that even if they hadn\'t been captured by bandits, even if they had made it safely to Lindblum City, they might have been locked outside the gate.

It was possible that the demon army could have arrived while they were still stuck outside.

Thinking about this, they began to feel grateful that the God of Light finally answered Father Barry\'s prayers and summoned the heroes to drive back the demons, and saved them from the bandits.

Otherwise, they might not have survived.

The soldier told them, "The lord is waiting for you at the lord\'s manor. He has some questions to ask you."

The townspeople were about to drive the cart forward when a soldier stopped them, "You can\'t bring these things with you."

The items the soldier stopped them from taking were the most important things they had brought on this trip.

They couldn\'t afford to leave them behind.

One of the townspeople questioned the soldier, "These are our most important goods. Why can\'t we bring them?"

The soldier replied bluntly, "What sense does it make to bring these things to the lord\'s manor?"

So, as long as they didn\'t bring the goods to the lord\'s manor, it was fine?

Spicy Flavor Fairy reasoned.

The soldier hesitated, thought for a while, and then remembered that Viscount Hereford clearly had business with them.

It was best not to offend them at this time, so he said, "That\'s fine, but we won\'t be responsible for watching over your things."

With that settled, Spicy Flavor Fairy had two townspeople stay behind to watch the goods, while the rest of them followed him to the lord\'s manor to meet the well-known Viscount Hereford.

After arranging everything, the group walked through the streets of Lindblum City while taking a look at the city\'s condition.
