Chapter: 717

An eerie roar broke the silence of the night.

There was a bitter smell of gunpowder all around.

Astelle, who was hugging Theor in surprise, slowly raised her head.

Fortunately, nothing has changed outside the window.

The knights surrounded Kaizen, but no one seems to be hurt.

“Mom? What’s wrong? What happened?”

Theor, who had been sleeping, was startled and opened his eyes.

“It’s okay. There’s been an accident. Everyone is safe, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

The bridge did not appear to have collapsed either.

What was that sound?

Kaizen ran to Astelle.

“I’m glad both of you are safe.”

“Are you all right, Your Majesty?”

“I’m okay.”

Lyndon run over and reported.

“There is a small amount of gunpowder inside the joint of the railing. I should have checked it first in advance. It’s all my fault. I apologize, Your Majesty.”

If it had been invisible to the eyes of the knights, it would have been a very small bomb.

Well, since it was a small bomb, no one was hurt.

“Search around and catch the culprit.”

That’s weird.

If it was a bomb so small that it could not be seen, it would not have been able to hurt people.

Was it really necessary to do this while the emperor and his wife were passing by?

Of all things…… When Kaizen went out, the bomb exploded as if someone had been waiting.

Others seemed to have similar thoughts.

One of the knights said as if puzzled.
