Zero didn't stay idle in Grimsbanne and left even though he had a long, arduous journey here. It was expected because staying longer just to humor me wouldn't benefit him at all. He wasn't a fool. I might've rattled him, but Zero was someone who would get back on his feet like an undead.
"The undead… that is his cards." My eyes sharpened, caressing a rose petal in the garden. "I heard some neighboring kingdoms agreed to be absorbed by the Great Heart empire. How smooth."
"Zero and his allied kingdoms are still resisting him from moving forth," Klaus added as he stopped several steps away from me. "His Majesty of the Spade Kingdom left Grimsbanne with his remaining knights. We already planted a shadow to keep an eye on him."
I nodded in acknowledgment. "They should be careful. We had lost many people in that foreign land."
"And he had lost a lot of people coming in here." He remarked.
