It was an admiration that even the person in question hadn’t noticed...
...
Besare, the main estate of the ipros family.
As the stronghold of the ipros territory, the main estate of the ipros family was as imposing and solemn as Besare itself, filled with dignity and reverence.
It wasn’t a mansion, nor a villa, but a fortress-like steel bastion.
The white chalk walls spread out like ramparts, enclosing an area spanning several kiloters.
Towers sharp as swords and spears rose within the walls, resembling watchtowers or the weapons of giants, standing tall, this way and that, in clusters.
Knights, fully ard as if they were sentinels at their posts, stood rigid at every corner here, lined up neatly, their unwavering gazes exerting an oppressive force rely by being observed.
This was the ipros family, a military household, a militaristic noble family.
"Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop..."
At one mont, a carriage approached slowly, the sound of hooves and wheels strikingly clear, reaching the ears of the knights present.
"Halt!"
Two knights stepped out of line, raising their long spears and positioning them in front of the carriage, shouting through the air to the young girl driving it.
The girl driving seed startled and was about to pull on the reins to stop when suddenly a voice echoed by her ear.
"Ignore them, keep going."
Upon hearing this, a voice from within the carriage, that of an old man, preemptively spoke up.
"Brilliant sir, you..."
Before the old man could finish his astonished words, the girl fiercely tightened her grip on the reins, her eyes filled with resolve, and without a second word, she followed her master’s command and charged forward.
"Halt!"
"Stop imdiately!"
"Archers, get ready!"
The knights seed not to expect the carriage to make a forceful entrance; their pupils contracted as they yelled out loud, commanding the distant sentry knights and the soldiers with longbows in the towers to either surround the place or draw their bows at the carriage.
But just as the knights were about to act and forcibly stop the carriage, an astonishing scene unfolded.
"[High-level Teleportation]."
Accompanied by a faint chanting sound, the carriage that was speeding towards the ipros family’s estate suddenly vanished.
Yes.
The entire carriage had disappeared into thin air.
"What?"
"It’s, it’s gone?"
"What’s going on?"
The knights imdiately halted, utterly baffled.
Only the archers atop the towers, after a mont of astonishnt, imdiately witnessed an inconceivable scene.
"That, that carriage is inside!"
Soone shouted loudly.
Just then, the carriage that had disappeared reappeared suddenly within the walls of white chalk, continuing forward.
Whether it was the gate or the surrounding wall, it had passed through them.
"Release, release the arrows!"
"Fire the arrows quickly!"
The knights stationed within the walls, though trendously shocked, quickly surrounded the scene, trying to block the carriage.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——!"
At the sa ti, the archers on the towers began shooting, sending a barrage of arrows through the air, enveloping the carriage.
"[High-level Teleportation]."
At that mont, another chant sounded from inside the carriage, causing it to disappear once more.
Thanks to this, the knights’ encirclent was foiled, and the skyful of arrows all landed on the ground, sinking into the neatly laid pavent tiles.
"Swoosh!"
The carriage then reappeared in another direction.
In front of it, the doors of the ipros family’s main estate were now just within reach.
"Bang!"
The next mont, the gates were smashed open.
