The Royal Army arrived at half-past twelve. Unlike the Conclave members where Millie escorted them to their quarters, each Royal Army officer went to their assigned rooms without any fuss. This information had been passed to them since yesterday, after all.
At the same time when the Royal Army arrived, most of the Conclave members who returned after walking around the Courtenay Land were gathered at the lounge and waiting for the others.
There were five attendants by the bar and while the Conclave members were not drinking, they still took this time to play a small game of billiard while chatting. Some even tried to get some information from the bar attendants. Though, what kind of information they were looking for was only privy to them.
As expected, as soon as a few officers of the Royal Army went to the lounge, an almost tangible tension filled the air.
I was supposed to include Kyran's first fight here, but saw the chapter was already too long... sorry... I'll update the next chapter as early as I can :)
