"Your Majesty, how come my brother hasn't sent any news back by now?"
Hearing Ed's words, Timothy remained speechless for a moment. "Indeed, it's strange. I sent Lehmann Hawes to sack the Western Region two months ago. Counting in the time spent on the road, now it's time for him to report or return to the king's city."
Timothy was clear that Lehmann and his knights who had merely 1,500 drugged men could hardly occupy the Western Region, so he had only told Lehmann to try to take control of the Western Region if possible. Their main tasks were to bring back the pills of the stronghold church, investigate the battle between Duke Ryan and Roland, and launch drugged men attacks to consume Roland's effective strength before leaving the town.
