"Our attack on the Royal Castle will be put off for now. I don't know how they did it, but I've gotten word that Amber completely decimated the church's forces. Every shrine, temple, and church in the kingdom has been destroyed." Lapis said, speaking to the three people sitting in front of him.
"Beryl is out?" Master Julius asked.
"According to my knowledge, yes, he is. I never considered him a threat, but it's still nice knowing that one of my competitors has been eliminated."
Ellan Calak, Lapis's grandfather, stroked his short beard as he listened to all the information given to him. Something didn't sit right with him.
Ellan leaned forward. "Lapis, my boy, have you heard anything related to Duke Ralf?"
Lapis paused to think, trying his best to recall any information pertaining to Duke Ralf Canan, Beryl's maternal grandfather. He pulled out sheets of paper, documents that held vital information related to the current war.
