Capítulo 377: Unexpected turn of events

( Cervantez's POV )

In an unexpected turn of events, West Duke James's son, Jerome, reached the gates of Silver-Pine Barony unannounced, with a large army of soldiers behind him.

When informed about this phenomenon, Cervantez as the acting baron, instantly rode towards the town gate on his mount, to receive Jerome at the gates.

Upon his arrival, the Dark Sky guild members manning the gates, quickly swung open the heavy iron gates, allowing Cervantez to see Jerome at the forefront of his men, his face looking stern and determined.

As he approached, Jerome dismounted from his horse with a fluid motion and strode towards Cervantez.

"Young Duke Jerome," Cervantez greeted, his tone polite but edged with curiosity. "What brings you to Silver-Pine without any prior notice?"
