Cornell's mood turned ugly when he heard the news that Hamon had rescued his wife before his men could kill her. Not just that, but also the battle in the border was going horribly. And what was more, that stupid nephew of his burned down his entire slayers headquarters! All his men stationed there had been wiped out by Hamon's soldiers!
THUD!
Cornell angrily slammed his fist on his desk, he had been here waiting to receive Ara's dead body, but then this news?! "I can't let this pass!"
Cornell had planned to distract Hamon with his wife's disappearance while they'd attack Findara, but Hamon was smart enough to find her and also let Richard and his son, Henry lead the army! He had held a grudge against Richard for years now, but the man seemed to be adding up to his debts. Richard had dared to support Fredrick's ascension to the throne years ago, and now he was supporting Hamon!
Richard Boxton! Cornell would make sure he regretted this!
