A week had passed since the day of the massacre at the Deepvale auction house. But the Edoria Kingdom was as silent as ever.
Only the faint gossip and rumors about Lionheart and the Goldveil family and Duke Castor could be heard in the streets.
Just like Lucien thought, Duke Castor was ruthless. The moment he heard the Lionheart family was related to demons, he directly killed everyone without giving them a chance to react.
He was so swift with his methods that the Lionheart family couldn't even mourn for their clan leader's death.
Poor Aldren, although he survived somehow, his family was ruined just because of his one mistake.
Like Lucien guessed, Duke Castor didn't publicize the involvement of demons anywhere. Rather, he just announced it was because the Lionheart family dared to plan to kill royals behind his back.
It was just a random reason he made up, but nobody cared to point at him anyway. After all, the people were already dead, and there was nothing left.
