"Damn it!" After a round of pleasantries, Viscount Grant closed the communication with Elder Mantle and gritted his teeth, "Haven't there been any good news recently?"
"That fool Patrick and his nephew are one thing, I can even understand Labor going mad over his son (Baron Leyan), but why is even my knight so unlucky?"
"Is it my fault? Or is it that South Ridge is genuinely cursed?"
Knowing that Ian was safe did not temper his rage, for Ian had indeed been injured, and the overt and covert hints from Elder Mantle all suggested that the attacker's background was extraordinary and not to be underestimated, possibly even a second Power Level noble of considerable stature striking from the shadows.
And Viscount Ailes Grant knew every Second Energy Level individual in South Ridge!
They're not giving me face, huh? Apart from worrying about Ian, this was the most infuriating part for Viscount Grant.
Yes. Yes, indeed.
In Harrison Port, there was a rumor.
