Capítulo 121: It hurts I could die

Hugo explained to me the current state of affairs in Belcoot. Since he was gone to assist Daniel in the Capital — Hugo was Daniel's most loyal and reliable warrior — some people in Belcoot came together to depose him. He was young back when he became the grand duke, and most of those who opposed his governance were supporters of the previous grand duke. 

He didn't give out a lot of details about how he became a grand duke aside from challenging him and defeating him. I didn't need details to know that it was a battle with their life on the line. 

To make the story short, Hugo was branding all those who came together as traitors and hunting them down one by one. He didn't give a word about his return to catch those people off guard. But alas, some of them managed to getaway.
