Kapitel 952: Behind the Calm

"I understand." 

After a long pause, Merlin replied impassively. Merlin's reaction stunned Bartamanth. Merlin was Count Stanwin's only son, yet his reaction was not at all like a person who had just received his father's death notice. 

Nevertheless, Bartamanth was just a messenger. Now that Merlin had acknowledged the news, Bartamanth did not linger and left the manor. 

"Master, the Honorable Count…" 

The butler trembled all over. Count Stanwin was dead. This was equivalent to the collapse of the entire clan. Whether or not this manor could continue to be maintained, it was difficult to say. 

"Prepare the carriage, I'm heading out." 

Merlin's expression remained calm. Even his tone did not show the slightest inflection. However, those from the Void Zone who knew Merlin well would know that this was his most terrifying state.
