488 Assassination_1

White Dew Fortress, Banquet Hall.

Melodious music, delicious delicacies, beautiful maids... none could soothe the restless hearts of the numerous guests.

The news of Count Angler's assassination had already engendered distress among the crowd. Later, when they heard the sounds of battle from within the city, everyone became even more anxious. They feared that the Blood Knight Army had invaded the city to avenge Count Angler, and they were terrified enough to prepare for immediate departure.

The St. Prowse Family's butler tried his best to keep the guests from leaving, but all his efforts were in vain.

The nobles of the East Territory had no intention of staying in White Dew Fortress to sacrifice themselves for the St. Prowse Family when the Blood Knight Army invaded, so they were determined to leave.

However, when they rushed to the entrance of White Dew Fortress, they found the castle gate tightly locked. A group of fully armed guards blocked the door, allowing no one to pass.
