Chapter 173 - A Goodbye Too Late

At that moment, they heard a knock and they all kept quiet, and Diamant's voice rouse to permit the guard in.

When the guard came it, it turned out to be Klaus. He bowed quickly in respect before he looked around the room, trying to search for who it would be appropriate for him to report to.

"Just tell us what it is already." Diamant prompted.

"It is a message from Gisha, my Lady."

"The traitors were sighted in Gisha, five days ago."

His hand immediately stilled on the table.

Five days ago?!

"They were three," Klaus continued. "We suspect that the body we found could be one of them."

"Body?" Drako turned his attention to Klaus. "When did you find a body?"

"An hour ago, Dra-- Your--."

"Whose body?" Goben cut in.

"Should be Aaron's." Drako answered.

"It isn't mal--" Klaus started to say but Diamant rushed pass him towards the door.

"Take me there."
