In Zurcath, Lucas was overseeing the reconstruction of the damaged buildings when a subordinate came to him with a letter.
"My lord, we received a letter from Midgard. His Highness sent it."
Hearing this, Lucas stopped what he was doing and took the letter. He wondered what his son had written for him.
With an expectant gaze, he removed the seal and quickly read the message.
The first line was just the usual greeting so he didn't have much of a reaction, but upon reading the second paragraph, his eyes suddenly widened.
What?! There's no way this is true!
He was in disbelief.
In his letter, Alaric wrote that he had advanced and stepped into the realm of Venerables. He even boasted about mastering a second domain.
Lucas's first thought was that Alaric was messing with him, but there was this anticipation in his heart, hoping that it was real.
"Bring Sherwin here," Lucas instructed the messenger.
"Right away, my lord!"
