The entire throne room went dead silent once more as everyone could barely fathom the words that had just come out of their Demon Lord's mouth, it took them quite some time to actually comprehend it.
After another painful minute, some of the elders finally broke the silence, snapping the others out of their dumbfounded daze.
"Huh?... WHATTTT!!!"
The eyes of the nobles immediately lit up was various emotions as the room was thrown into an uproar.
"Your Grace, you can't be serious. The Jaxith Family's secret has been locked away since the death of the Demon King more than a thousand years ago, not even we the elders have been permitted to know it. You can't just so easily reveal it to a mere emissary!"
One of the Elders voiced his opinion loudly, his words had gradually gotten higher as he spoke, something one should never do in the presence of their liege, yet no one had attempted to chastise him. Instead, more began to speak up.
