Kapitel 55: The Roots

A few hours before

In the windowed office of the Blazing Royals Guild, two people peered at each other for a fraction of a second.

Edmund again eyed the folded letter in front of him on the table. His hand reached towards his face and pressed the area between his eyes. He would lie to himself, believing that he hadn't seen this coming. But even then, it seemed too soon to be true. Without looking at the person sitting opposite him, he presented his thoughts.

"Boomie, are you sure you want to do this?"

"… Yes."

Edmund unfolded the letter and saw the content. But after reading the word 'Resignation', he couldn't go further. He had his doubts over the sudden turn of events, but it was neither place nor the time to clear those out. The guess in his mind had still occupied his mind when he heard Boomie's next words.
