“Your Highness, what should we do now?” Neville asked, looking solemn. “Should we tell the Hall of Gods where Logan is?”

The Hall of Gods was a force to be reckoned with, but so was Logan, especially with West Lucozia behind him. If tipping Zeus off led to Logan getting hurt, the monarchy wouldn’t just let it slide.

Matthias scowled. “That bastard Nathaniel really screwed me over.”

He finally realized Nathaniel hadn’t just passed the problem over, but he had also set a trap.

Unable to handle the mess himself, Nathaniel had used the Hall of Gods to do his dirty work and chip away at Matthias’ power. He was killing two birds with one stone.

Matthias fumed, but he had no good way out. Either he crossed the Hall of Gods or made an enemy of Logan.

Then it hit him. This whole mess had nothing to do with him in the first place. It was Logan’s feud with the Hall of Gods, not his. If they ended up destroying each other, so be it. Matthias was just trying to stay alive, and that was something he could live with.

With that thought, he stopped hesitating and made his decision.

“Head inside and tell Zeus exactly where Logan is,” Matthias said sharply. “And tell him to get the hell out.”

“Yes, Your Highness,” Neville responded.

He wasted no time and rushed inside. Even though he hated it, he swallowed his pride for the greater good and also for Matthias.
