�Excuse me?�

Marquis Sand Ailan realized that the northeast region did not gather around Count Deruth, but actually around his son, Cale Henituse. They seemed to be gathered together by something tighter than power or greed.

��Looks like we will need to give up on the northeast region.�

He slowly calmed himself and started to speak.

�I�m just glad it ended with the northeast region.�

It was extremely lucky that only the northeast region gathered around Cale Henituse. If he had not realized it through this incident, the entire kingdom may have been eaten up by him.

Someone with that type of atmosphere around them was bound to draw people in. Even if they don�t mean to do so, they will draw in more and more people.

�He is either going to gulp up another faction or increase his influence. I�m certain of it.�

Marquis Sand was thankful that he was now aware of it, giving him a chance to stop it before it got too severe.

However, there was an issue with his line of thought.

�Then let us get started with the meeting.�

Crown prince Alberu started the meeting with a happy expression. He then looked toward a noble.

One of the nobles next to Duke Granike Orsena quickly stood up after seeing Alberu�s gaze. He was the Count responsible for the progression of this Grand Nobles Meeting.

He stood up and opened up the agenda of things to discuss. He coughed a few times before starting to speak.

�Ahem, we are unable to start the meeting as not everyone is present.�

The Count turned his gaze away from the smiling crown prince as he continued to speak.

�Commander Cale, why did you come alone? The notice requested the attendance of two others as well.�

The Count peeked toward Duke Orsena, the leader of his faction, who nodded his head in order to tell him to continue. The Count opened up his shoulders and looked at Cale after seeing the stubborn Duke giving him the go ahead.

He then flinched.

�How could a person-!�

He felt as if he was an herbivore in front of a carnivore. The Count started to sweat after seeing Cale�s gaze that was directed at him.

There was not much a human could do after getting hit by this aura that even the Killer Whale Archie found difficult to handle.

Tap, tap.

Cale started to walk away from the center of the room. JrNovels.com
