Chapter 628
The reason Rogen came was because an envoy had arrived from the Kingdom of Alion.
‘Directly to me?’
This wasn’t the first time envoys had come from the Kingdom of Alion. But it was the first time the King had met with an envoy.
In the case of the Kingdom of Him, even when envoys arrive, the Crown Prince does not come forward. This was because the Crown Prince was often absent from his post.
Up until now, it was Rogen or Praminus who received the envoys. Even if the King is in the kingdom, Rogen and Praminus receive them.
‘What could it be?’
The Kingdom of Alion knew this fact well, having sent envoys many times before. But why would they insist on a personal meeting to deliver their message?
“The envoy is Duke Cadis of the Alion Kingdom. He is the head of the Harpirus family and the second-in-command of the Alion Kingdom.”
Myeonghu was startled once more by Rogen’s words.
‘A duke as an envoy?’
The envoy’s status was extraordinary. A duke and the kingdom’s second-in-command. How could someone holding such a high position in the kingdom come as an envoy?
‘This doesn’t seem like a routine courtesy call.’
This couldn’t be an ordinary matter.
‘Could it possibly be related to the priest’s visit?’
Suddenly, the report of the sudden deaths came to mind. The report that priests from the Holy Empire had secretly visited each kingdom. Could it be that the arrival of Cadis, the second-in-command of the Alion Kingdom, as an envoy was connected to that matter?
