Chapter 170
After Khal conquered Altair, the land of eternal frost.
In Lucon, an epic saga and a play titled ‘The Red Knight Who Slew the Dragon’ became immensely popular.
Its influence even spread to Lavania, the capital of Lucon.
Children in the streets brandished wooden swords, calling themselves Khal as they immersed themselves in games of war, while merchants beamed with joy, dreaming of the profits to be gained through trade with Altair.
Flap!
Just then, promotional flyers for ‘The Red Knight Who Slew the Dragon’ fluttered through the capital streets.
“Bring that to me.”
At the command of a middle-aged man watching the street scene from his carriage, one of the servants quickly retrieved a flyer.
“Has a peerless genius truly emerged from the Stark Family?”
The man staring intently at the flyer was Duke Giuseppe Risetta.
As the leader of Lucon’s most staunch conservative faction, his influence encompassed half of the kingdom’s nobility.
He was a man of such power that even the royal family could not treat him lightly.
Given this background, it was perhaps natural for him to be arrogant. Yet, there was one formidable family that even he could never bend to his will.
“Those damn Starks.”
Crude profanity spilled from his lips at the mention of Lucon’s strongest martial house.
The anger that surged within him naturally tightened his grip.
Crush!
The flyer was crumpled in his hand and discarded onto the floor.
“What is it that enrages you so?”
