As the seconds ticked by, the night seemed to grow darker and colder, largely because of the unceasing rain.
On the fourth floor of a building near the area where the assault against the conspirators was taking place in the remote commercial zone, Commander Huv Loper held a demonic crystal that had stopped glowing after which he reported:
-Archduke, Commanders Teran and Miry confirmed that they will attack.
Archduke Arcariz nodded without letting his attention wander from the manager of the herbalist store.
-Tell Commander Ardostian to start withdrawing with his group. -He ordered the Archduke.
Huv Loper was surprised, but did not contradict the Archduke's decision and immediately he shone the demonic crystal and reported the Archduke's orders to Commander Ardostian.
Commander Ardostian clenched his hands around the demon crystal, sighed and thought, "I thought I would die here."
