Daimon frowned after listening to the Duchess words, what she described isn't a king but… a façade, and of course he wasn't the only one thinking about it, the first one to say something was none other than Thea.
"Humph, so the current head of the White family is a mere puppet, but if that's the case who is the one taking the important decisions?", said the Empress with a disdainful voice, it's not a secret that she hates the White royal family to the core, though that hatred doesn't seem to have spread to Daphne or the Valas Duchess, maybe because unlike the other wives of the king, she didn't get sway away by Triten and draw a clear line between them from the very beginning.
This was a good chance for Daimon to ask something that has been bothering him for some time too, no matter in which age, planet or galaxy one is, the one to rule is always the one with the bigger fist.
