In the imperial palace, things were not calm either. Augustus had also found out about the attack on the noble district and couldn't let it go, so he quickly called Donald to report what he knew.
Augustus had already established Donald as another minister, but only a few knew that. His mission is the internal control of the empire. Although he had Demon and Hell's agents for this task, this was a group of his exclusive use and it was best for them to remain hidden.
For this reason, he secretly appointed Donald as security minister and would let him be in the light. Although he said that he was in the light, this referred to the perception of him and the high-level nobles, as he would not publicly declare Donald's assignment to everyone.
Donald heeded Augustus' call immediately and they were now in the inner study of the palace where only ministers were allowed to enter. Donald knelt before Augustus as he entered and greeted, "Your Majesty."
