Your highness! There was a large explosion in the desert!

“What?”

Alberu subconsciously jumped up from his seat.

He was not the only one. Everyone in the meeting room could not hide their shock.

The Captain of the Kingdom's Knight Brigade walked up toward Alberu and asked for permission before raising his voice toward the video communication device.

"What do you mean, an explosion in the desert?! No, how did something like that suddenly happen?”

The person being questioned was the diplomat who had gone to deliver Alberu’s letter to crown prince Valentino and was currently at the Caro Kingdom's Dubori territory. That! One moment please!

The area around the diplomat holding the video communication device was completely chaotic. Move! Everybody quickly gather in the meeting room! Hurry up! Gather at the castle wall! Get the mages in formation as well!

They could hear people shouting and running around as the diplomat moved to a quieter location.

‘It’s an urgent situation!’

The chief executives of the Roan Kingdom who were watching could tell that things were extremely serious at the Dubori territory right now. The Knight Captain could not handle it anymore and started to speak.

"Just report in first!”

The people here had heard from crown prince Alberu that the White Star might strike the Roan Kingdom after hitting the Caro Kingdom.

That was why they were extremely anxious right now. Yes sir, I understand!

The diplomat stopped in place and started to report in. The ground suddenly started to shake a moment ago before there was a loud noise that came from the large explosion in the desert!

The Knight Captain peeked toward Alberu at that moment.

He finally recalled something he had forgotten about because of this unexpected news.

Cale Henituse.

He was thinking about the crown prince’s sworn brother. Alberu who didn't show much care for his own family and shown such love and pride for this sworn brother of his.

That person was also the Roan Kingdom's treasure that should shine even brighter in the future.

Wasn’t that person fighting in the desert just now? Furthermore, that desert was covered in dead mana smoke.

The Knight Captain and the other chief executives stiffened up as they observed Alberu. The diplomat continued to report as they did that. The dead mana smoke had turned into a large whirlwind, but that whirlwind is slowly disappearing! However, according to the mage who was with young master Cale-nim!

Alberu twitched and started to listen carefully.

The mage the diplomat was talking about right now should be Eruhaben.

The ancient Dragon’s words would be more accurate than anything else.

Alberu waited for what the diplomat would say next as calmly as possible. The diplomat continued at that moment. Apparently the foundation near the center of the desert has crumbled! The size was about the size of a mid-sized city, a, and-

The diplomat hesitated without being able to continue.

“Why are you stopping in the middle?! Hurry up and tell us!”

The person in charge of the Roan Kingdom’s diplomacy started to raise his voice. The diplomat finally continued in a shaking voice. …He said that h, he could not feel any living presence in the desert, including the enemy White Star's group.

Silence filled the room for a moment. H, however. He said he found some corpses that he couldn't tell whether they were crushed by the crumbling foundation or the dead mana smoke.

“N, no-”

The person who had just raised his voice could not say anything.

Some people were dead.

But they could not confirm who these people were.

That fact alone put a terrible thought on his mind.

‘What if someone from our side has died?’

‘What if young master Cale or one of his group members was injured?’

Nobody could dare to open their mouths. They could only look toward the diplomat who was biting down on his dry lips with concern and anxiety.

It was at that moment.

“Huuuuuu.”

They heard a light sigh.

“Everybody calm down and sit back down.”

Alberu Crossman calmly started to speak and sat back down in his seat. He looked very calm and collected that they wondered if he had even been shocked just now.

“…Your highness-”

"Sit.”

The Knight Captain who was about to speak sat down after hearing Alberu sternly give the order again. He then looked toward Alberu’s face.

The diplomat who watched all this carefully started to speak again. Ahem. That, your highness.

“Speak.”

The diplomat gulped after seeing Alberu smile majestically.

‘Yes, his highness has always been like this.

He's able to quickly overcome anything and act as he normally does.’

The diplomat who found that to be both scary but reliable continued in a slightly calmer voice.

He said that the dead mana smoke will continue for at least two to three more days. He believes we can only enter the desert after all of the smoke is gone and they are expected to investigate the destroyed area at that time.

“There are people willing to do that?”

The comments Alberu made extremely stoically shocked the diplomat and made him look around.

Thankfully, nobody was there. Of course, Alberu had checked to make sure nobody else was there before saying that.

The diplomat continued in a less confident voice. …Won’t the Caro Kingdom pick the search team?

However, he had no confidence in his words.
