Everwinter, King's City
”My lord… Lord Marwayne…” Soed his arm
Annoyed, Marwayne opened his eyes He took soained his blurred vision's focus, and the faain” Marwayne hiccupped and expended a great deal of strength to stand up, accidentally knocking over the wine bottles on the short table, one of which fell to the ground and shattered loudly
The sound jolted hiover
Marwayne was up the entire night till the wee hours of four to five in thewith him until he knocked out on the coach Marwayne squinted his eyes and looked upon the soft couch by the side There were all sorts of beverages and other fluids sprinkled all over the couch, while the fireplace that had lasted through the entire night produced an unpleasant s disappeared, obviously lacking when it came to their ability to serve
hell, how did I end up sleeping here last night?
”Burn it” Marwayne wiped away the drool on his face andhis headache ”So, uished Butler, what bad news do you have for ht fled or did men from Graycastle enter Everwinter?”
”I do not dare, my Lord” The butler immediately bowed his back lower The initiative to attack the Graycastle teaet redirected at hi the dedom of Wolfheart They will not be able to enter Everwinter in the short term, please do not worry about it—”
”Heh, doesn't that just mean it's a matter of ti his own nose ”There hasn't been any reinforcements to the demon forces all this while Even that so-called Sky Lord has disappeared without a trace Anyone can clearly see that the situation has changed, so what's the use in consoling rowled ”I knohat you want to say: pull yourself together, don't give up—You saw it for yourself, despite us holding the same weapons, our people were still utterly defeated by Graycastle What does that say? It means that the disparity isn't with the lords, but the lowest rung troops, and their people! They dared to confront firearms head-on, but what about us? We only dared to cover our heads and sneak away like rats!
”How 's City? Viscount Narnos? No, his territory should now earn him the title of a Count Duke Remy? Half of his family are in Everwinter, he can't leave even if he wants to And the other families… Indeed, they are still considered nobles, but do they not want to leave! No!”
At this point, his tone suddenly reached a crescendo
”They can't leave! They are unwilling to abandon their faenerations and start fron to their fates! But this will not happen for the knights I've recruited The deed has no binding clauses, they can simply take their deeds and leave and co I can do is keepthe in self-abandon, understand?” Marwayne picked up a bottle of wine in passing and poured some into his mouth ”Once I honor the promise, they will immediately disappear! Since our subordinates and people cannot compete with Graycastle, then we can only rely on the de as they can defeat Roland Wiain settle down When that ain At that tiest help!”
”My Lord… I know that, but I need to infor!” Marwayne's voice went into a slight vibrato ”You think of me as weak, incapable, a drunkard that relishes in alcohol everyday But the truth is not so, my plans have no flaws, the flaw lies in the demons ere defeated! If they can't even defeat Graycastle, what can I do by myself? It doesn't arded so highly, has left, so what if I beco of Everwinter? Why not drink more fine wine… After all, there won't be a chance in the future
”So from now on, you need not report to me any bad news It's sufficient that you know about theht, I reround storehouse beneath King's City, right? Now… Get out”
Marwayne buried his face in his hands and laid back down on the soft couch
”My Lord, what I wanted to say was, his Excellency Sky Lord is currently waiting in the castle's parlor He has a new decree for you” The butler finally found the opportunity to speak and quickly let everything out
”Wh—what did you say?” Marwayne sat up ”The Sky Lord is here? Why didn't you say so earlier? Quick, prepare a basin of hot water for me I ash up and head over now!”
”There's no need” A low voice suddenly came out from the door's entrance The tere startled and turned their heads, only to see a tall and blue skinned figure push the doors open and walk in
