Chapter 157: The Taciturn and Heartless One is Also Enthralled by the Radiant Appearance (5.2K, 39/76)

This was the first time Kael had seen such a large merchant convoy arrive in Lancaster, but it seemed that these folks had quite the misfortune.

From the situation with the Barbarians, it was clear that they had not initially considered them as targets for attack; however, for some reason, they changed their original plan and started fighting with the merchant convoy.

Kael even suspected it might be a matter of "What are you looking at?" "Yeah, looking at you!" kind of situation.

But after thinking it over, he felt that if this was happening among Barbarians… it actually made sense.

Just by looking at the Barbarians' gear, it was obvious they weren't here in Lancaster for an exchange; their intentions didn't matter to Kael.

Whether they intended to strike at him or to block Lancaster's external communications was irrelevant.

The Rangers who accompanied Kael were eager to try their skills, carefully watching Kael's expression.
