章 217: Explosions

The army assembled into a battle formation as it advanced through the thin pale-grey fog. Khan, Ilman, and a few others were on the left side of the main group and let the latter approach the castle before them.

The fog slightly hindered everyone's vision, but it never fully hid the area. The castle remained visible, even if only in the form of a vague shadow that featured no details.

Khan drew his knife and wielded it firmly with his left hand. His expression grew colder as he followed the two soldiers and the adult Niqols in charge of his team. He was right between those leaders and the other students, and Ilman made sure to remain near his side.
