The Man’s Decree

At the Tenth Hall, Quenric lounged in his quarters, not bothering to leave the place at all.

Neither was he even the slightest bit worried that Tennyson would pick trouble with him.

At the end of the day, his visit there was nothing more than a formality to add value to him. His family was a prestigious one among the celestials, so Tennyson wouldn’t dare do anything to him.

While Quenric was relaxing, the gaunt old man walked in.

“How’s it going? Is Jared dead yet?” Quenric asked.

“Mr. Haverford, although many have gone to Allardland, none has made a move yet right now. They must have some reservations about something,” the gaunt old man replied.

“I know their reservations. It’s only natural that they aren’t making a move. After all, it’s uncertain if the Tenth Hall can even come up with a hundred thousand celestial crystals. Additionally, Jared has an expert backing him up. They would have undoubtedly investigated him, so they wouldn’t be so easily manipulated.”

Quenric had seemingly anticipated that all along.

“Mr. Haverford, Dorian Lantz of Twilight Imperial City also set off for Allardland with some men. I reckon it’s because of the Decree of Execution too,” the gaunt old man reported.
