Redpine City, Helia ’s Castle

”Marquis Ember, it ’s an honor for you to grace Redpine City with your presence. Had I known the Grand Inquisitor was paying a visit, I would have prepared a warmer welcome. ”

Helia Ashenborn strolled outside to greet with an amicable smile after the magic airship landed in the castle ’s outer courtyard.

”There ’s no need for you to come out and welcome us yourself, Lord Helia. We would have visited you shortly, ” Ember Killian claimed.

”How would I dare put on airs in front of an Inquisitor? Let alone the Grand Inquisitor, Marquis Ember? ” Helia Ashenborn replied with a wry smile before glancing over at the other airship members. ”I see Headmaster Astoria is also here. ”

”Good day to you, Lord Helia, ” Astoria Braveheart greeted with a cordial smile.

Shortly after they exchanged greetings, Helia Ashenborn checked out the airship members again to determine the Grand Inquisitor ’s reason for visiting.

”Those people are… ” Helia Ashenborn noticed the old hag and half-humans on the magic airship.

”Istana Gleriath and dogs from the Assembly of Silent Night, ” Ember Killian casually replied as she waited for her messengers to arrive.

Nevertheless, Helia Ashenborn was quickly stunned by Ember Killian ’s words.

”That old hag is Lord Istana…? ” Helia Ashenborn ’s gaze flickered with surprise before she muttered, ”Another war veteran has depleted their lifespan, huh? ”

”It ’s ex-lord now, ” Ember Killian corrected.
