"Annihilation!"
Whoosh!
Boom!
A terrifying wave of energy burst out, sweeping across the entire city of Hinode.
Magnificent buildings and everyone inside them were instantly reduced to nothing.
The once-bustling harbor was left in ruins. Even the Imperial Palace, located on the outskirts of the city, was caught in the blast.
Everything happened so fast that no one had time to react.
The man slowly lowered his hands and smiled.
"I hope you enjoy my gift, Nolan Lorian."
Whoosh!
His figure vanished, turning into a cloud of smoke that slowly drifted away with the wind.
…
"What's wrong, Master?"
Eira's worried voice echoed in Nolan's mind.
Nolan remained silent, his brows slightly furrowed as he stared into the distance, toward the Eastern Continent.
"It's nothing. I just have a strange feeling that something bad has happened."
His heart felt unusually heavy, as if something terrible had just happened. Yet, he couldn't figure out what it was.
