Some others also began to follow the kowtowing man, expressing their gratitude.
"Alright, I accept your gratitude. Raise your heads—I will send you there right now," Aldrian said.
"Savior, how did you—" Before the man could finish his question, he and the others suddenly disappeared, leaving only Aldrian and the broken Karl behind. Aldrian had sent hundreds of captives just outside the town's eastern walls.
The sudden appearance of so many people at once immediately caught the attention of the guards in the area. The captives were momentarily stunned by the abrupt change in their surroundings. But when they realized where they were, many of them erupted into cheers, overjoyed to have finally escaped that place!
Many shed tears of gratitude, offering their thanks to the heavens and to Aldrian.
