"Your Majesty, we have investigated and found that an explosion occurred in a barren mountain on the outskirts of the Capital City!"
In the Imperial Palace, a eunuch rushed in, crawling on the green stone floor and respectfully reported.
"A barren mountain?"
The Saint's brows furrowed slightly. Today was the Lantern Festival, and the entire Capital City was out playing and admiring the lanterns.
Even the usual night curfew was lifted tonight.
Because of the lantern fair, accidents happened every year during the Lantern Festival.
But they were mostly minor issues, such as water-related accidents, or stampedes due to large crowds, or explosions in a workshop or the like.
However, like today, the activity outside the city was so loud that even the city felt the tremors; it suggested a more serious situation.
