In the blink of an eye, nearly half a month passed.
The date became July 14.
Missionary Kerrigan rode through Kaipan City's bustling market street, a squad of Temple Knights following behind him. He looked somewhat dejected.
The rising sun spilled across their silver armor, yet failed to reflect even the slightest glimmer of glory.
That was because this time, they had been expelled from the country and ordered to leave within a set period.
Over the past several days, there had been round after round of clashes, both inside and outside the country, and throughout the Temple.
But the nobles' reaction had been extremely fierce. They had clearly decided to beat a broken drum with a thousand sticks and seize this opportunity to drive him out.
Even Kerrigan himself found it difficult to understand. He had merely seized an opportunity and taken the initiative once...
How had things ended up like this?
It wasn't that he hadn't worked hard. It was simply that the wizards were too cunning!
"Damn wizard..."
Kerrigan thought bitterly.
When he reached the city gate, the Second Prince and his attendants were already waiting there.
"Teacher, I'm here to see you off."
Kerrigan felt slightly warmed. He urged his horse forward and chatted with him briefly, exchanging a few words of comfort.
The Second Prince had a high opinion of the Temple and was one of the people they were actively grooming at present.
But just then, a raggedly dressed pregnant woman suddenly rushed out of the crowd. Two frail children, a boy and a girl, followed behind her.
The girl clutched her mother's hand and stood in front of the horse, bursting into tears, while the boy flung himself directly before the horse's hooves and cried out in anguish, "Father, don't abandon us!"
