"Urgh, what a pain."
Akamir groaned, rubbing his shoulder as he sat on his bed.
It's been four hours since he had gotten out of the Core Dungeon.
After Inara informed him about King Aldirc's condition, he told the academic staff about what happened in the Dungeon.
'I think a lot of people died.'
Akamir thought, massaging his shoulder as he leaned on the bed.
'Still, Aldirc kept his condition a secret for a long time.'
The poison that Lucien gave to his father was meant to act late.
It was supposed to slowly chip away all his power in just a few months.
'With him out of the picture, the struggle for the throne starts in earnest.'
Aldirc would lose his core completely in just a few days.
And the moment he lost his core his life would also slip away from him.
…His death was inevitable.
Akamir let out a sigh as he remembered Inara.
The girl though still determined couldn't help but feel sad for her father's death.
