Capítulo 412: Chapter 412

"As I suppose you are aware of, some encounters I have had with your offspring, Duke Sylfinnier. Today, I am here because, of these few I have experienced… Yesterday's is one I believe the Duke should learn about for by casualty what I witnessed cannot be left ignored. Neither by yourself… nor the Empire itself."

The mention of the Empire lifted Orland's brow lightly. Within the investigation he had placed two of his children under, suspicious letters had been exchanged with one he knew resided in the royal palace itself… nonetheless, whom and with what intentions… it became a mystery his watch could not decipher, for the one letter they had intercepted being exchanged was later discovered as a decoy… Of this fact, Orland doubted was learned by Paul, for if aware, during the many days he had deprived the son from meeting his eldest daughter on many occasions Paul would have given a hint about this to his experienced father's eye.
