Chapter 225
At the same time Ian was receiving the report from the mage, Dilaina’s servant was also running through the dark corridor. Since it became known that Arsen was a magic user, guests had been coming to her palace day and night.
It was no different now. At the entrance to the reception room, besides Dilaina’s servants, unfamiliar people were lined up waiting for their masters.
“What’s all this commotion at this hour of night?”
As he arrived hurriedly and panted, the head servant scolded him with dignity. But the servant paid no heed and quietly reported so that no one else could hear.
“It’s urgent. Please announce it. They say the priest from the Carbo Temple has just entered the palace.”
The priest entered the palace? At this hour? The head servant, flustered, let him in. As they opened the middle door and approached, the lamentations of the high-ranking people could be heard.
“In the end, Eric stamped the indictment.”
“If we had known it would come to this, we should have killed him. Tsk tsk.”
“That’s a dangerous thing to say. Everyone knows, more or less. From the Minister of Justice down, none of them could come to work, so it’s clear something unusual is going on. If someone had died, how would you handle the aftermath?”
