When Leo and the group got into the hall, an exhausted man rushed in and announced, ''The Elven Empire is under attack by hundreds of monster waves, Your Majesty.''
Dorian spun around with a shocked expression. He watched the older man turn towards him and spoke, ''If you go help them, I'll double your reward and grant my daughter's request.''
When the emperor said that Leo looked at Octavia, who blushed, causing him to think, 'She demanded that she be with me.'
''Send everyone out in the morning and I'll meet them by the border pass I've seen on the maps,'' he replied, causing the group to look relieved.
Dorian smiled before approaching him and whispering, ''I know Octavia likes you but it will cause many problems if I break the engagement, but I'm willing to do it.''
''Why?'' Leo was curious, so questioned.
The older man's smile grew, ''Because you will destroy the Duke and his family as they will insult you.''
