Chapter 60
While Lord Helmut single-handedly held back the main force of hardline elders pouring through the main gate, several elders took advantage of the opening to scatter and successfully infiltrate the upper floors of Saxony Castle.
And blocking their path were the Saxon family’s guardians.
“The Black Proxy…!”
It was a woman in a suit, her monocle gleaming. One of the elders of the Black Tower saw her and shouted.
Eris, the Black Duke’s secretary, the Black Proxy.
Moreover, being the secretary to the Lord of the Black Magic Tower was by no means a position of mere ‘secretary’.
“I never imagined there would be so many foolish ones daring to oppose the Tower Lord.”
Before the elder, unable to hide his dismay, Eris murmured bitterly.
“And you dare utter such words after seeing the Black Magic Tower as it stands now!”
The Black Magic Tower’s elder shot back, as if refusing to be outdone by that display.
“O dark proxy, do you not see the Black Magic Tower, its ideology dead after its decline, and the weakened figure of its master?”
“Did you say the Black Magic Tower is dead, and its master weakened?”
“Yes. Drawn by the warmth and affection of family, they forgot the spirit of the Black Demon Tower──.”
It was at that very moment.
“Ha!”
Eris burst out laughing, as if she couldn’t hold it in any longer.
“What’s so funny?”
“A mere Sixth Circle elder, daring to measure the vessel of the Dark Tower Lord.”
