Chapter 166: Entering the Emerald Dreamwood
Mute was a name that meant little to Ambrose.
The last time the president of the Elegiac Society had shown himself, the member known as Mute had spoken barely a few lines in the group chat.
Undead were all mad in their own ways, each possessed by a different brand of obsession. Ambrose was not particularly adept at making friends, so he had never sought any of them out in private. It was better to avoid stepping on unspoken taboos.
He hadn't expected Black Rose to strike up a conversation with this Mute.
Yet even Black Rose didn't seem to know much about her true race. All she knew was that Mute claimed to wield considerable influence somewhere across the seas.
Ambrose could only marvel. There were incredible legends in the Elegiac Society. Had fortune not smiled upon him recently, he might well have been the most unimpressive one among them.
[Black Rose: I'll speak with Mute and arrange things. I'll contact you again afterward. Also, don't try to enter the City of Dawn. For a lich, that place is hell. It might be a haven for humans, but it won't last. One day, Lyon will destroy itself in its own madness.]
Ambrose dared not respond to that. He was, after all, still within the domain of the Lord of Dawn.
Still, Black Rose wasn't wrong. The madness had begun in the royal family of Lyon. Once the royalty and the nobility were corrupted, this kingdom would fall faster than any other.
