After capturing Hirodod, Juan was even more vigilant instead of relaxing, and he immediately rushed to Duolin City without any delay.
Along the way, they only rested four times, and they ate only the dry food they brought with themselves to minimize interaction with the lords along the way, only showing the handwritten letter from Quintus the High Priest when they were stopped to ask for passage.
In this manner, they arrived at the base of Duolin City in just six days.
At the sight of the city walls, Juan finally let his tense heart relax substantially.
He sent someone ahead to notify Quintus the High Priest and City Lord Shapiro, and now both of them had already come to the outside of the city, followed by the guards of the Raimondi family, totaling three hundred men.
Juan had the others stay where they were while he took Hirodod over by himself.
