The colorful morning glow gradually faded, revealing a faint crescent moon.
It was already nightfall, but the team from Merredith City was still on the move.
This was a three-person squad, consisting of a Fourth Rank Great Councilman, Lair, and two Third Rank regular Councilmen.
However, the two regular Councilmen were not ordinary either—one was Ryden, the most talented wizard in Merredith City, and the other was Rosa, a witch from the Kael Family.
The Kael Family, simply put, held a status in Merredith City's food supply akin to the Roon Family at their peak, perhaps even surpassing them.
The three had just traveled from Merredith City via the Transmission Array to Neustadt, and were now heading toward the Tilaimei Plain.
"Ryden, you are most familiar with Councilman Colin, so you will primarily handle the negotiations…"
The night wind howled, and Ryden, recalling his mentor's instructions, couldn't help but curve his lips slightly.
