Chapter 622
Squeak
The door opened and Sidro entered.
“Chung!”
Entering the office, Sidro knelt to pay his respects.
“Sit.”
Alkan rose from his seat, sat on the sofa placed in front, and spoke to Sidra. Sidra moved quickly at Alkan’s words and sat on the opposite side.
“Do you remember what I said in the garden not long ago?”
As Cidrow sat down, Alkan spoke again. He had spoken to Cidrow in preparation for a day like this. To select trustworthy knights.
“…!”
Sidro’s expression turned startled at Alkan’s words. Seeing his surprise, Alkan smiled and continued.
“The time has come.”
The time had finally come when those knights were needed.
“I see.”
Sidrow nodded.
“Are you ready?”
Alkan asked Cidre, who was nodding. Cidre stopped nodding at Alkan’s question and looked at him with a deeply serious expression before answering.
“Yes, Your Majesty. I have prepared them.”
“That’s a relief.”

Count Rotomo, who ruled the Kalin Province of the Helio Empire.
“Hmm, Kitoros wine truly is the finest.”
Count Rotomo was enjoying wine in his own room.
Knock knock
It was at that very moment.
“…?”
Loto, who had been enjoying his wine, looked toward the door at the sound of the knock and soon heard a voice.
“My lord, it is Clu.”
It was Clu, the mansion’s head butler, who had knocked.
‘What could have happened?’
Clue never disturbed him while he was enjoying wine unless it was something important, so the fact that he knocked suggested something had definitely happened.
