An old man and a young man sat in the main hall of the crown prince's residence.
Over the past few months, the Emperor of the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon had aged by more than a decade. His temples were graying, and weariness showed on his brow. The young man by his side looked to be at most in his early twenties. Although the two of them were dressed luxuriously, it could not hide the sorry state they were in.
"Royal Father, are we really going to ask the Kingdom of Sa Er for help?" The prince from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon looked carefully at his aged father.
The Emperor of the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon's face was filled with reluctance and helplessness.
