Chapter 794
“First War God…” The captain of his personal guard hesitated.
“What is it?”
“If we’re all headed to Murrfield? What about the lady?”
Conrad froze.
The emperor had already used his daughter to threaten him once. If the emperor found out that he was going to save Andrius, it might lead to a second time. That was indeed a problem.
Conrad sighed. “Go make the preparations first. I’ll talk to her personally.”
Then, he went to his daughter’s door.
Knock, knock, knock.
Knock, knock, knock.
Knock, knock, knock.
After three series of knocks, there was still no response.
A sad look flashed on Conrad’s face. She was still upset at him.
“Vivi, I know you’re inside.” Conrad said bitterly, “I let your mother down, and I haven’t been there for you enough over the years.
“However, what I’m about to do now is related to Florence and millions of its people.
“The Wolf King is the leader of the Lycantroops and is replaceable. As long as he’s around, Florence will never fall.
“If he dies in Murrfield, the Lycantroops will likely go berserk. They might even march on Kiyoto in a fit of rage. If that happens, there’ll be chaos, mass slaughter, and rivers of blood.
“As a War God of Florence, I can’t just stand by and watch such a catastrophe deeply.
After a while, he said, “Actually, I’m also doing this to protect you. I hope you won’t misunderstand me.”
After saying that, he stood outside the door for a long time.
However, from the beginning to the end, Vivian never opened the door. There was no sound from inside at all.
Conrad smiled wryly and left part of his personal guards before he left.
A moment later, the bedroom door finally opened.
A young girl appeared at the doorway. She wore plain clothes, but her beauty was exceptional. Her clear eyes flickered with a hint of sadness, making people want to protect her for a lifetime.
She was none other than Conrad’s daughter, Vivian Gibbs.
She held a string of prayer beads in her hand and was constantly fiddling with it. Ever since her mother’s death, these prayer beads had been her solace.
Vivian looked at Conrad’s back and muttered a prayer under her breath.
However, in the next moment…
Snap!
The prayer beads in her hand snapped, and the beads fell to the ground like pearls.
She felt a sense of foreboding…
