A new beginning?

King Orpheus thought that the attack was simply a threat that they could weather. To think that it goes deeper, he could only shake his head in disappointment. Since the matter has blown out of proportion, he needed to personally appear.

He carefully listened to Duke Ulysses's summary of what happened and at the mention of the younger Ginehart, he couldn't help but look at the young man a few times. A small doubt arose in his heart after hearing the duke's explanation. He needed to talk with Rigel in person to fully understand what really happened.

"Can I have a talk with Rigel?" He returned his gaze to the man who stopped talking when he noticed that he was not listening to him. This was his way of making sure that everything would go according to his plan.

Ulysses frowned, "Why? I already explained the circumstances, why do you still intend to talk to my son?" He was not resolved to the fact that the king was still eyeing his son.
