Chapter 397: The Grand Duke’s Astounding Achievement
Eric held the parchment open with both hands as he scanned the content. His grey eyes moved intently as he read the scribbled lines.
"What does it say, Sir Navin?" Damon asked, unable to contain his curiosity.
The knights were eager to know why the palace had suddenly sent an official letter to the mansion. Eli wanted to peek, but such behaviour would be considered a breach of confidentiality.
As the Grand Duke’s representative, Eric was the only one authorised to receive and read the letter; the other knights should not intercept such formalities.
Eric rolled up the parchment and said delightedly, "The palace informed us that His Highness the Grand Duke has submitted a report regarding the situation in the Agathe Islands."
He then told the group about the events on the island, explaining how Kyren had successfully won over Ardel’s army, mercenaries, and pirates to Cassian’s side and how the King of Ardel had been eliminated.
The details about Barges’s planned invasion had also been highlighted to King Kyden, and the Grand Duke was now leading the entire troop to the kingdom to intercept the army.
"Our Grand Duke is ahead of us! It seems he has the whole situation under control! With the large army and support for Cassian, victory will surely be ours! We don’t have to worry about the invasion anymore!" Eric’s announcement brought joy to the group.
"I knew His Highness would be able to resolve the Agathe Islands issue well!" Garin said with a smile. "He has never disappointed us!"
"Yes! Also, there’s one more thing," added the second-in-command knight.
"What is it?" Luke asked excitedly.
