Chapter 230: Stonerend’s use.
"It’s been said that several hundred years ago Lucien Duvant arrived from another world. He didn’t have the last name at the time, though." Daniel began his story, "He became the guest of the Duvant family, one of the nobles in the city. Back then it was called Droskar."
Daniel took a long pause, but during his time here Lee had gotten used to it. He knew the man got lost in thoughts, but soon would speak again.
"It was then his conquest began. One after another the heads of the noble families began to disappear. Droskar was thrown into chaos, but the ruler at the time, probably not a very powerful man, couldn’t do anything about it. In few short months only few elemental lords were left and unsurprisingly all of them were from Duvant family."
"So basically he killed everyone and took over, right?" Lee asked.
"Right." Daniel agreed, surprised his story turned out to be so short, "He killed his allies in the end. Droskar Dominion became his. He renamed the city, giving the stupid Freeheaven name, I don’t know why. And from then on controlled every talented individual in the world. If someone showed any signs of revolt, they disappeared."
"So that’s the reason the elemental lords around him are weak, right?" Lee asked, "He keeps only those he can easily take care of?"
"Correct. The world is wast and everyone would have a place to live peacefully, but he ..." Daniel became philosophical, but Lee interrupted.
"Is there a spatial elemental master among them?"
"How did you know?" Daniel was surprised, "But he’s also very weak. Duvant always takes a good care of him too."
