NIKOLAI was surprised when all of a sudden, the ruby gem in his brooch exploded. As the emperor, he was required to dress accordingly. But it wasn't the reason why he always had that particular brooch on him.
[It's a signal from the demon boy.]
"Your Majesty!"
It was just a small explosion that didn't hurt him and yet, Geoffrey Kinsley already barged in his office.
"Are you alright, Your Majesty?" Geoffrey, who just returned to the palace after dropping Neoma off at the Red Sky Tower, asked worriedly. "Are you hurt anywhere?"
"I'm fine," Nikolai said, then he tore the brooch off of his suit and threw it away. Then, he stood up and walked past the worried Paladin as he explained the situation. "Trevor sent me a signal indicating that his place is infiltrated."
The Paladin, who was walking behind him, gasped. "Then, Prince Nero…"
"My son might be in danger."
