In the Kingdom of Axelor, the minister had brought a chair with him and was now sitting outside the King's chambers while waiting for news from the Hidden Kill Sect.
Both of them knew that what would happen underground during that auspicious hour would dictate their next step towards conquering the sect.
"Contact him again. Ask him what he's doing."
Hearing this from the king, the minister sighed with exasperation but obeyed anyway.
Sending a message, he waited for a little while and then said, "My King, there are still 10 minutes left for the auspicious hour to end. He has his eyes on the tower, and he said that he would let us know as soon as he sees something to report."
There was no response from the king, and both of them resumed waiting.
But, it looked like the king had been counting down the seconds, as exactly after 10 minutes had passed, he said, "Ask again."
