The countess' face sank. "Phuman, my brother is in trouble. Isn't there a few Spell Casters stationed in Ravens Castle? You're the supreme commander of Ravens Castle. You can easily deploy some of the Spell Casters to his rescue, can't you?"
Count Phuman felt uneasy seeing his wife who has gotten irritated and explained helplessly, "You've seen how those Spell Casters regard me with little respect. Even though I'm the supreme commander of Ravens Castle, I've no actual power to deploy those Spell Casters at all. There's nothing that I can do!"
The countess stood up angrily and shouted hysterically, "So you'll just watch in silence as my brother and his family is being killed?"
Count Phuman paced back and forth in the room. He appeared as if the burden of the world had been put on his shoulders.
