Bab 559: War's Second Phase (3)

"Not good! Not good!" A knight shouted as he ran down the hallway. He was sweating profusely as he rushed to the official's hall.

"Hold it, the Council is having a meeting with His Majesty… Watch your conduct!" The knights assigned to guard the doors looked at the panicking soldier and frowned and warned. 

"You have to let me in! There's something important that the Excellencies need to know!" The knight who was panting as he caught his breath insisted.

"Let him in!" Just as the knights on guard are about to stop the knight once again, a voice inside the room could be heard.

The guards opened the door immediately and let the knight come in. 

In the room, several men wore serious expressions as they looked at the knight who was still in a panic. Just looking at his face they knew that what he was bringing was extremely bad news.

So all of them looked at him and waited for his words.
