Chapter 500: Spirit Queen

"Is the Death Domain attacking us?" Ryder asked, wondering if the Death Domain was here? Did they finally decide to attack? And if they did, was his trial what led to it, or was it something already planned?

"No, that shouldn't be it. Their Prince was in their Palace last I saw him. There seemed no indication that he was about to attack anyone. The army was also not preparing for war?" he muttered, confused. 

"Who is it that attacked us?"

"We don't know. We have stayed inside the Palace to protect it. We only heard that the Southern Border of the Demon Realm is under attack," the Guard answered. 

"Southern Border? That's a place Devilia handles with a few other southern Dukes," Ryder muttered.

"The other High Dukes have more information. I wasn't here, so I don't know about this. Come with me," High Duke Oris said as he started walking away. 

Ryder followed behind him with Rale.
