Chapter 94: Alessia
On the second floor of the tavern, when they heard the words of the young man standing before them, they were astonished.
Several thoughts ran through their minds, for if they carried this out, the fall of the Medici Clan would be certain.
"You don’t hold a grudge against the Medici family?" asked one of those present cautiously.
Kael stared at him for a moment and said coldly, "That’s none of your business. Just do as I told you."
Everyone nodded and asked no further questions. Not long after, they left the room, leaving Kael alone.
His gaze remained fixed on the city that had lost all happiness and was now filled with fear and terror, because no one knew if they would still be alive the next day.

Two days later.
The rain fell furiously, as if the sky itself were pouring its wrath upon the earth.
Thick, gray clouds covered the sky, merging with the distant mountains into a single nebulous mass. Suddenly, lightning streaked across the sky like a silver snake, illuminating the world for an instant... and disappearing as quickly as it had come.
Spring rains, usually a symbol of life, this time brought with them a dark omen.
On Kiran Mountain, the trees creaked under the force of the wind, but stood firm. In the city of the Medici territory, stone and wooden roofs withstood the onslaught of the storm.
