Chapter 334: Deculein (2)
In the Imperial Palace’s guest room, Knight Gawain, speaking in an extremely stern tone, announced that the mission objective of Demonicide was the assassination of Deculein.
“... The assassination of Deculein?” Ganesha asked.
Ria leaned back in the chair.
“Yes,” Gawain replied, nodding with an air of composure.
At that moment, the guest room’s mana lamp went out, plunging the room into darkness as if there had been a power outage, and Ria lit a fire immediately.
Why did the lights suddenly go out so creepily? Ria thought.
“Her Majesty, the Empress, herself gave the command?” Ria asked, swallowing hard.
“That is correct,” Gawain replied, pointing to the official letter.
Ria looked at the official letter again.
The establishment of the new Imperial direct task force Demonicide is hereby confirmed.
The short sentence alongside the wide stamp’s inscription was the Empress’s own handwriting, and the stamp was the Imperial Palace’s imperial seal, and suddenly a thought like a thread arose in Ria’s mind, bringing contemplations of Deculein’s past words telling her to chase him as if he sought death, along with memories of him.
“Her Majesty is already aware that the Altar’s existence has been formalized,” Gawain said.
