Chapter 624:

“Argh!”

Grand Lord Zaiper grabbed his most prized flower vase and hurled it across the banqueting chamber. It shattered into a thousand glittering shards.

Next, he reached for his finest ale gallon and threw it, the heavy vessel smashing against the far wall, amber liquid spilling down. The chamber was already a mess—broken goblets, upturned chairs, and fragments of once-beautiful decorations littering the floor.

Yet the chaos did nothing to quell his anger.

“That conniving little whore!” Lord Zaiper roared, sweeping his arm across the banquet table. Goblets, chalices, and plates clattered to the floor, the noise echoing loudly through the hall.

Razarr swallowed a wince and remained motionless in the corner. He hadn’t seen his master this destructively angry in a while. Lord Zaiper would regret all of this by morning when his fury finally subsided.

“How dare she?” Zaiper spat, turning his burning gray-and-yellow eyes on Razarr, who straightened immediately.

“Is she mad? Deranged?” He raked a hand through his hair.

“She was not supposed to be in court. I saw the guilt in Daemonikai’s eyes—I could have gotten him to admit it if I had pressed harder, declared him unfit to rule. But no! She had to come along and ruin everything!”

Seizing a decorative jar from the table, Zaiper smashed it against the floor.

It was time to intervene.

“Another opportunity will present itself, my lord,” Razarr said cautiously.

“Your spell is still active. His mind is still in ruins. Sooner or later, everyone will see it.”

Zaiper rounded on him.

“This was the perfect opportunity!” he shouted, gesturing wildly.
