บท 86: Dangerous Thoughts!

⁜ Bernard POV

"My King!" 

The dark throne room lit with only the flickering of candles revealed the tired-looking King sitting in silence while his loyal knight Bernard returned, despite his harsh words. 

"Bernard... What news do you bring me?"

The tired king asked with a sigh, his eyes looking at the ceiling, hoping for answers and realising that his choice was a mistake and now his entire rule was in jeopardy because of his deal with the falling sun cult.

"The Falling Sun Cult has kidnapped the prince, and the princess remains missing but seems fine from the last crystal images. Our intelligence reports that the Fenix boy escaped their first assassination."

"So, the cult took Valos, and Vela is missing?"

Bernard nodded. "Yes, My King. Our spies also reported that the Fenix boy killed twelve Stage Two assassins and injured the Bishop leading the group."
