Chapter 323: 322 “Jeliteli

Jeliteli.

This was a border city within the domain of Duke Sterling in the Mitra Kingdom.

It was the only city in Duke Sterling’s domain that sat on the borderline of the territory, bordered by the kingdom’s inland. Although it was a city within Duke Sterling’s domain, the fact that the other half of the city lay beyond the territory line made its affiliation with Duke Sterling’s domain somewhat delicate.

In the past, Sterling Family had numerous conflicts and disputes with the neighboring Marquis Lakasadis over the ownership of this city, which had even led to small-scale wars.

Eventually, due to Sterling being a Duke’s family, which held much higher privileges and status in the kingdom than an average Marquis Family, the kingdom reluctantly granted the city to the Sterling Family. However, its awkward location meant that Marquis Lakasadis’s domain next door still seemed to covet it.

In truth, this issue could have been resolved by simply redrawing the territorial boundaries.

For instance, by assigning the lands surrounding Jeliteli to one of the nobles, such issues wouldn’t have occurred.

But since neither Duke Sterling’s family nor Marquis Lakasadis was willing to cede their territory to the other, this problem had reached a stalemate, causing quite a headache for the kingdom.

Even the Royal Family had often complained about it, wondering what those in the past were thinking when they divided the land in such a way that created these disputes. Regardless, the general situation had been set, and the ownership problem of Jeliteli remained unsolved, left to linger as it was.

Precisely because of this, the defensive forces of Jeliteli were much stronger than those of a typical city. Stationed here was the Second Knight Order of Duke Sterling’s family, led by a Family Head from a Knight Viscount Family that served Duke Sterling. This Family Head boasted a high level of seventy-nine, a distinguished figure among the many knights of Duke Sterling’s family, just one step away from reaching the expert level of eighty.

However, today, this expert, along with the knights of the Knight Order, stood dumbfounded, staring at the sky, their weapons falling to the ground unbeknownst to them.

No, it was not only the people of the Knight Order but also the common folk of Jeliteli who looked up at the sky with faces of terror, screaming in panic, fleeing in all directions.

The entire Jeliteli was plunged into chaos in an instant.

And in the sky, a massive shadow descended slowly from above.

“Roar——!!!”

The terrifying roar turned into a tangible sound wave, stirring up dust storms, and, like a shockwave, shook the entire Jeliteli.

The horrifying noise and the scary silhouette caused the knights to tremble, nearly turning and running away.

“Dragon!”
