Battle with Ekaros

...

Terias had decided to stroll in his territory alone, his butler did not tag along, complying with the orders and reached the mansion before Terias.

To his surprise, after safely escaping the investigation from the Royal forces, there was another set of trouble waiting for him and his master.

Ekaros, the Viscount's youngest brother was there with his men. John could see and sense that the final act of rebellion had begun and it could not be suppressed any more.

The workers and residents inside the mansion were unaware of the upcoming battle. Ekaros invited John for a cha, while they chatted together, waiting for Terias to come.

...

"Is it necessary? You have it all, Sir Ekaros."

John asked without any reservation, he had known the brothers from the very beginning. He wanted to avoid the skirmishes between them because the outcome would be bad, really bad.
