As he spoke, his body rose up and flew towards the direction in which the torrent was flowing in.
...
In the town.
"Hey, I'm so bored. Let's find a family to have some fun."
Several soldiers were roaming the street when one of them yawned and made a suggestion.
They are soldiers of the Kingdom of Krein.
They are few in number; the country has only two hundred soldiers, who are mainly used to obey the king's orders.
This country doesn't need to protect its civilians, so naturally it doesn't have much military force.
Some of them were former thugs of the country, while others were pirates who had switched to being soldiers.
Because of the King, His Majesty Krein Og, their existence has left them in a state of lawlessness.
The king himself promised that as long as one does not defy him and resolutely carries out his orders, one can do whatever one wants in daily life.

"Okay, she's the one!"
A soldier stepped forward, drew his gun, and prepared to shoot the lock off the door.
Rumble rumble...
Suddenly, the earth shook violently.
"What happened? Was there an earthquake?!"
A soldier looked down at the ground in alarm.
"No, the vibration is coming from that direction."
Another soldier pointed in a direction, and as soon as he finished speaking, his mouth gaped open.
Because from there, billowing smoke and dust rose.
Amidst the smoke and dust, a group of ragged men carrying hoes charged towards them with angry expressions.
"A mine, a mining site..."
The soldier swallowed hard and shouted, "A riot has broken out at the mine!!!"
