"Also, haven't you guys noticed that there is a connection between those houses?" Henry asked with a serious voice.
Von stared at him with furrowed eyebrows, while Fredrinn frowned in contemplation.
"Now that you mention it, I think there is indeed a link between the houses involved!"
Fredrinn exclaimed when he realized what Henry meant.
"Most of them are related to the Grand Duke!"
Henry nodded, his expression grim. "Indeed."
The Grand Duke was also a member of the imperial family. He was the younger brother of the current emperor, a peak Transcendent Knight who held great authority in Astania. He was also the second prince's strongest supporter!
"If the Grand Duke is involved in this matter, could it be related to the second prince too?"
