Capítulo 102: In the Shadows of Departure: Unspoken Bonds

After about an hour, Count Victor couldn't shake off the unease that lingered on his face as he questioned his friend, Lord Magnus.

"A-are you sure it's gonna work?" he asked hesitantly.

Lord Magnus met his gaze with confidence. "Yeah, I've devised a countermeasure plan. You just need to focus on your part."

"But isn't this too risky for you? For Samiel? Maybe there's another way?" Count Victor pressed, concern etched on his features.

"We could find another way, but it wouldn't be as efficient," Lord Magnus explained. "We have to take this chance. If we don't, we might lose everything—for our people, for the sake of peace."

Count Victor sighed deeply. "I understand. I just hope that we won't regret this decision."

Lord Magnus nodded. "We'll be cautious, prepare for the worst, but also be ready for the best outcome."

"In that case, I pray for our success."
