1191 Test?

Kieran wasn't surprised by Duke Will reacting to the summon.

After Mary made her move, the Duke of Will, who was known as the "old fox", should have reacted accordingly, it would be strange if he did otherwise.

However, Duke Will facing assassination also surprised Kieran.

Replying by death wasn't any good reaction to Mary's summons, Kieran didn't believe Duke Will was willing to give up his power and position to become a "deadman".

Unless the old fox was targeting something else.

What though?

The answer was obvious.

"He knew with his position and identity, should he die, Mary, as the heir to Warren, would have to visit and pray at his ceremony. Given the current situation after the war and considering the safety of the princess, I would have to follow her as well. Which means that other than Mary, I am also being targeted? Or rather… I am the main target!"

Kieran squinted his eyes.
