The Savior Who Bites My Neck (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 131

It took exactly two days to travel from the imperial palace to the western region of Edenbell.

But Sinclair knew well—he had to reach Elaina’s side at all costs, even if it meant arriving just a few minutes sooner.

He knew all too well how Hester tortured people, and how he destroyed them.

It had already been a full day since Sinclair had departed the imperial palace with his soldiers and private guards.

Sinclair had raced nonstop, day and night, like a madman; and the soldiers and guards who witnessed his desperation followed him in silent silence.

This news was far from good for Sinclair.
