Duke Will Heart's Palace
In a hall that embodied grandeur and splendor, several figures stood before a throne-like seat—one that was a near replica of the Emperor's own throne.
Yes, the seat was exactly like the imperial throne, placed right in the castle of a Duke. Anyone from a noble family who had ever seen the royal palace would be utterly shocked upon seeing it.
Because this hall was an exact copy of the Elthanor Imperial Throne Room.
An old man in a simple robe stood beside a beautiful young woman clad in armor. Both of them bowed deeply, not daring to lift their heads.
A little ahead of them stood two others—one, a young girl with long golden hair. It was unmistakably Lorena.
Standing before her was a middle-aged man with long blond hair. He was tall, and a terrifying yet majestic aura radiated from him. He raised his hand and gently stroked Lorena's face and hair.
