Chapitre 1126: A Trap

"You can make one reasonable request to the Duchy, as long as it doesn't endanger the interests of the Duchy, the request shall be fulfilled."

Prime Minister Zed stood up in reflex and wanted to ask the Duke to reconsider his decision.

But the Duke gave him a side-eyed glance and Zed sat down like a deflated balloon.

The crowd was too focused on Varian to notice this change. Only Akira witnessed the little interaction and her lips under the hood curled up lightly. The disdain in her heart against the Duke rose, if it's even possible to rise anymore.

'An old man who can't even tolerate a second opinion. No wonder this Duchy never had a chance to revive to its former glory.'
