By evening, Count Theodore had essentially regained control of Nuta City.
He dispatched men to extinguish the fires throughout the city and provide aid to civilians who were injured or had lost their homes.
Meanwhile, he sent troops to surround the Temple, demanding that the High Priest hand over the members of the Farsight Mercenary Corps.
At the same time, a squadron of griffons departed Nuta City, flying towards Storm City.
For the past two days, communication between the two cities had been severed.
Count Theodore was desperate to know if any significant events had occurred in Storm City.
He also invited Yan Xing, who had made crucial contributions to quelling the rebellion, to the Lord's Mansion for dinner.
In the vast dining room, only the old Count and Yan Xing sat at the table.
Even the number of servants in attendance was limited to four.
