The Guardian's Sword

Lowich was dead. The Seven Star Sword that Lowich was holding also broke in
half.

The 20-million-dollar sword was like a piece of tofu before the Guardian Sword.
"Bury him." Sean ordered.

"Yes!"

Several city defense soldiers dismounted their horses and quickly buried Lowich
in a hole in the ground, using the wilderness survival tools they had brought.
Without a tombstone nor marker, no one would know that the bodyguard of the
mayor of Crosac's second daughter was buried here. Lowich was destined to be
forgotten for his stupidity.

About half an hour was wasted after this little episode. However, that was about
it. The diplomatic convoy was back in Dorodo before dark.

Their return was greeted with fanfare. The reception for the diplomatic convoy
lasted until midnight. Besides, the entire Dorodo celebrated it. It took several
days for the holiday-like atmosphere to dissipate.

At the same time, all the information contained in the third ancient bronze sword
fragment was revealed.

Three pieces of the ancient bronze sword were combined into one complete
weapon.

By scanning with the machine, Sean got the map of the secret warehouse in
Silver City and the digital passcode of the secret warehouse.

Sean quickly handed the information to Dragon Kingdom's army.

It was none other than Hanson who handled it.

Sean trusted Hanson more than anyone else in the current army, and Sean could
not trust any others. However, this matter was so important that it was likely to
take some time before the higher-ups reached a decision.

What followed was a period of free time.

"Commander, you've got an invitation.” Zander walked in with an invitation card.
He placed the beautiful invitation card on Sean's desk once he reached. It was
an invitation to a ball.

The director of Dorodo's hospital was Benedict Wosh, and his daughter Miriam
was 18 years old this year, so he was holding her a birthday party as a coming-
of-age ceremony.

Benedict was also one of Dorodo's richest men, which might have given him the
confidence to invite Sean to his daughter's birthday ball.

Sean laughed as he looked at the invitation card on his desk. "What gave
Benedict the illusion that I would attend his daughter's birthday party?"

Zander laughed too.

Maybe Sean was too approachable and friendly, so many businessmen invited
Sean, hoping to be friends with Sean. It was not the first time this had happened,
so Zander was not shocked.

He thought for a moment and said, "Commander, I know you're not interested, so
I have turned them down for you."

"Yeah, do as you like. I might as well get some rest if I have time to attend a ball,"
Sean said with a smile.

In the evening, Sean did not attend Dr. Wosh's daughter's birthday ball but
strolled in the streets of Dorodo alone.

Dorodo was indeed less prosperous than Crosac, but it was a city managed by
Dragon Kingdom. It had better security, and the residents here were happier.
Most people walking on the street were couples or a family of three, and the
single young men and women he saw occasionally were all smiling.

One could not see that in Crosac.

"Cotton candy... Get your cotton candy... Three dollars a stick. Five dollars for
two, and ten dollars for five...
