Chương 215: Unfavorable Situation

'First, he already cut my connection with Gaum. He took over the control for Fulk, the shortcuts I planned are all closed off for Duchy Arion. And I can't use Viete's road, because Floren is in a 'relationship' with Rosalie. I cannot raise the suspicion of the Golden Princess.'

'What is he doing targeting me anyway? There are a lot of other houses to suppress, I'm not even on his father's side!'

Aster ruffled his hair in frustration. He threw the gold quill to the floor and then stood from his chair. He left his office and walked around the corridor to calm his nerves.
