Through The Gate

"Is there a way for you to confirm chich one is the cause?" Leo asked.

"No, Sir. Not without sending someone there to look in person." The soldier replied.

"Are there any Gates close to Zoren?"

"There's one but it would take two days on horseback to reach the city from there, is that going to be alright?"

"It's fine." Leo replied. The soldier looked over the crystals and picked the one he needed, placing it into the gate.

'It's better than traveling from here to Zoren, that would easily take twice as long. Although...' Leo thought as he stepped through the Gate, arriving on the other side instantly.

He was surprised to see that the building around the Gate was mostly destroyed and there was a battle ongoing all around him.

[Battle Aura]

After only a moment Leo activated his Battle Aura and a dark blue, translucent Energy surrounded his body.
