"How many fallen spirits are you short of?"
The Godfather asked, not bothering to waste time on what caused the plan to fail or berate the duke for allowing it to happen.
The Celestial Pendant consumed too much energy each second it remained active and there was no way to restore its energy in the spirit realm.
"We still need more than half a million spirits to have an above 50% success chance." Duke Humphrey anwsered with a deep sigh.
He might have shown his subordinates a confident front, but he was also under the impression that their plan was bound to fail if they went for it now.
"An entire half a million? What were you doing all of those years?" The Godfather asked with an overbearing tone that almost broke the Duke's back from its pure pressure.
"Godfather, please! I have been careful not to attract Lord Hade's attention. The pendant can only hide what happens around me, but not for the others." Duke Humphrey beseeched.
