Chapter 80 - 14: Night of Dreams (2)
The moonlight shone slantingly on Yilin’s windowsill, pierced through the glass, and fell on her desk.
She sat at her desk, lit a candle, and lowered her head to write.
"The situation in Lion King City seems to be growing more complex. In the near future, there may be a storm. I need to handle this carefully."
"The King is suspicious of me, but I think, slowly, he will come to understand. The Beisher Family has already taken back everything that belongs to them. I have no interest in his throne."
"The other two Dukes are making moves. However, as long as I don’t get involved and ensure that the King’s forces remain strong, they shouldn’t act rashly."
"Gray..." Yilin’s pen halted for a moment. Lifting her head, she happened to see a silver moon and instantly smiled with relief. She continued writing: "No matter what, he will stand on the side of justice. As long as he is around, there shouldn’t be any big problems."
"The Allen Kingdom is stirring, the two Dukes are stirring, and the King is also stirring. But, if we handle this carefully, we can surely avoid this unnecessary internal strife..."

Dean the Priest paced back and forth, his face filled with anxiety.
"A whole day has passed, and I haven’t even seen the Holy Knight yet. This is bad. Where exactly has His Majesty the King taken him?"
"Why are you looking for Gray?" Shelley asked groggily.
