Atticus catching the attention of a Count was already too much in Masner's books, but a Marquis?
Marquises were rare in the Verge. A handful at most. This was simply because reaching such a level was hard.
While a Count had a grand world under their belt, a Marquis had multiple. Their powers could not be stressed enough.
"What the hell did he do to offend the Marquis? Didn't he just arrive?" Masner couldn't hide his shock.
If the Count was involved in this matter, he could guess the Marquis he was talking about.
'Dravek…' He found his heart thundering. This child had offended such a titan? He just couldn't see a way he would ever escape this.
"What he did is of no concern to me. I've been ordered to exact consequences. This is why I have called you here."
Masner regained his composure after a moment. "Me?" he asked, shocked. Water willers weren't as battle crazed as Redflame willers. The Count must be mistaken.
