Chapter 128
As the brothers of the Stark Family began to radiate an extraordinary pressure in response to Khal’s provocation,
Kiera Stark glared at him, her eyes filled with both disbelief and fury.
What made the situation even more absurd was Khal’s own attitude; the one who had thrown the taunt now stood with his arms crossed, looking entirely bored.
‘He’s clearly looking down on us.’
Despite having neither the recognized skill nor the achievements to back it up, his gaze was incredibly arrogant.
Grit!
The third son, Rogaha Stark, spoke through clenched teeth.
“It seems you still don’t realize your place in this family. If you’re going to make such statements, it’s not too late to wait until after you’ve defeated me.”
“Is that so?”
Just as Khal was about to accept the proposal as if it were a trifle—
Creak!
The door to the conference room swung wide, and Ludger Stark appeared alongside a squad of knights.
“You’ve certainly grown a spine befitting a man, Kalliant.”
Ludger burst into laughter, as if he had been listening to their conversation from behind the door.
Lamas, Kiera, and all the other siblings paid their respects to Ludger.
Though it was a family gathering, it was a greeting born from the Stark Family’s strict hierarchy. Of course, it was also an expression of the respect they held for Ludger Stark as a warrior.
“You’ve grown strong.”
Ludger looked at Khal with a proud expression.
However, the benevolence quickly vanished from his face, replaced by a stern solemnity.
“So, how do you plan to pay the price for being so arrogant toward your brothers?”
