Capítulo 133: Chapter 133

As the young nobles anxiously exchanged glances, the Duke addressed Rey.

"As I mentioned before, the grudge between our houses is settled."

"Yes," Rey replied.

"Don't dwell on the Count's death. It was a fair duel."

"Yes."

"…No spokesperson?" the Duke asked.

When Rey faltered, Sylas stepped in with a wry smile. Hiding things was no longer necessary, but even he hadn't expected it to be this direct.

"Since the grievance has been settled, we only need to work out the terms for trade."

The young nobles' eyes lit up at the mention of trade with the elves. Trade was as appealing as obtaining magical artifacts, if not more.

The Count who had promised them artifacts was dead, so Rey would need to offer a new incentive. But as they eagerly awaited the next step, the Duke interrupted.

"No, there is one matter left to resolve first."

"One matter left?" Sylas asked.
