"Thud!"
I landed in front of the huge city gates of Halis city, before walking toward it.
Thanks for being a High-Sovereign; I didn't have to be in line. I went in, got my document checked, and also myself by an invasive soul sense of the Earth Sovereign.
The news of the son of the governor being an infamous bandit had already spread throughout the city.
She had tried to suppress the news, but it spread like wildfire. I have to know about it before even entering the city.
The woman who had an iron grip over the city for more than a century is rapidly loosening. She is powerful, but there are more powerful people in organizations she belongs to; not to mention the competition she has.
Earlier, she was able to handle it all with ease, but now, not so much.
