Hiroki glanced at the sky, "It appears to be getting late already," he said. He began to notice a difference in the capital atmosphere. People were leaving, and residents were shutting their house doors, while some of them wore expressions of worry. The lively atmosphere from earlier was fading, replaced by an unsettling stillness. "Ah, it seems it's exactly as I expected. Things change when night comes. The same thing from the previous village appears here too. I'm familiar with the risks of the night from my past life, but the situation here are somewhat distinct." Hiroki thought to himself. Ayuri observed the situation and said, "I think we should head back now before it gets too dark." On their way back, they chatted and stayed occupied until their arrival. "But, Amaya, I didn't expect you'd be able to sway that weird old man to our side," Kenji said, followed by Amaya's confusion. "He's one tough nut to crack, that's for sure. That's what some of the townspeople looked like as well, so you've done a good job." Amaya beamed with joy, "Really?! So I have made strides towards my goals, and provided some benefit from it.. Amazing!" Pride was evident on her expression, so Kenji continued, "Yeah yeah !" As they approached the entrance, Ayuri's gaze sharpened. A contingent of guards stood at attention, their armor gleaming in the fading light. These weren't the usual sentries, there was something different about them, Their armor's high quality indicates that they are likely people of great significance. "ehh... Something tells me those people aren't locals, they appear to be of higher status" Hiroki stated, sounding a bit jittery and kinda snooty. Ayuri agreed to him and said "I think I've seen these outfits before, they seem to belong to the kingdom." Her reaction was more pronounced. Her eyes widened slightly, betraying her discomfort. "This… shouldn't be happening," she whispered, almost to herself. They headed to the PHG's main public hall as typical, as they pushed open doors of the PHG headquarters, a scene unfolded before them that was far from ordinary. Ryuuji, the head of PHG, was deep in conversation with a group of distinguished individuals, all exuding an air of authority. At the center of the group stood a girl, a few years older than Hiroki. Her long, golden hair shimmered under the lights, and her sky-blue eyes were sharp and piercing, giving her an aura of command. Once they stepped forward while silence, that girl zeroed in on Hiroki's face and spoke "Well, seems fate has brought us together here.. Hiroki Kurogane." This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version. Ayuri's gaze immediately sharpened as she saw her. "Why on earth this bothersome girl is here." She pondered to herself. There was a flicker of something in her eyes—displeasure, perhaps? But she remained silent, her expression carefully guarded. Hiroki appeared confused about the situation, as evidenced by his facial expressions, so the girl with the golden hair broke the silence. "It seems that you do not know what is going on here, I see that.. Well, to be clear, I am considered the ruler of the capital, Braga, the capital of Yumix.. Senior Minister, Seina Karino." Hiroki caught on to what she just said, like, a second later and goes, "Huh?" Following a brief moment, Siena spoke, her gaze becoming softer, while the room was hushed up real good. "Initially, I would like to extend my most sincere apologies and condolences to each and every one of you for what has transpired," she bowed apologetically in front of the little girl Amaya, the elite guards assigned to personally observe her were taken aback by her humble actions, Amaya modestly reacted to her with su
