Chương 577: 575 Night Talk_1

The night was at its deepest.

Colin strolled alone on the manor grounds. The biting cold wind awakened his dormant thought processes like never before.

A banquet was still underway in the manor to celebrate the reconciliation between the Church and the North Territory, and the impending official dispatch of the Imperial Allied Army to the Westland.

Colin reflected inwardly. The failure was not only due to Emperor Reinhardt's foolish betrayal but also his own carelessness.
