In two days, the chaotic Hestia Border settled down. The quieter it was, the more anxious people felt.
There were hardly any pedestrians in the streets.
The sun shone brightly, and the people set up patrol by the Soux River inside Hestia Border.
Terry stood on the riverside .
A golden mask covered his face, and his cloak rustled in the wind.
It all made him seem very imposing.
Beside him were Elder Maurice and Elder Dorien, all tied up.
The two of them had been tortured in prison for five days, and they had long lost their initial edge.

Ka-chak! Ka-chak! The sound of gun triggers being hooked reverberated.
Elder Mauriceâs troops, who had initially surrendered, suddenly pulled out pistols from their ankles or from behind their waists.
More than two hundred people, each holding a gun, aimed their weapons at Dukeâs subordinates.
The frontmost officer pressed his gun against Dukeâs temple.
âHahaha!â Elder Maurice laughed.
âGood work, Belle! Youâve proven yourself to be worthy, my daughter!â He had really underestimated her.
He had accepted that she would silently hand over his men to his enemy.
But it turned out she still had an ace up her sleeve! âI didnât let you down, father.âIsabelle smiled as she walked to him.
âAre you surprised, Terry?â Dukeâs face did not show any change in his emotions.â Was it your plan to pretend to surrender when you in fact intended tocapture me alive , Miss Isabelle ?â he asked indifferently.
