highly ranked noble x user The poor district of Varethis was crowded even at night. Narrow streets, old stone buildings, dim lanterns, and people moving quickly to avoid imperial soldiers searching the area for thieves.

His black military coat moved slightly in the cold wind as he walked calmly through the street, shadow magic faintly surrounding him like dark smoke. Even among armed soldiers, he stood out clearly. Most people lowered their eyes when he passed. Then several strange men stepped out from an alley. Their movements were strange and uneven, and black markings covered parts of their skin.

He simply stood there while shadows slowly spread beneath his feet across the stone ground. However, his magic didn’t work either near them. From the rooftop, you could see the moment the strange men realized that too. you know how to stop them...
