Chapter 134
Translation: godsn
"We're returning to the Royal Palace."
Pelleus de Valdina, having restored order both inside and outside the ramparts, turned to leave the fortress walls.
"Your Majesty?"
Pelleus' azure eyes turned icy as he abruptly halted his steps.
With quick perception, Dianzel retrieved the object that had caught the king's gaze—an exquisitely crafted dagger.
"This is..."
It was the very Flying Dagger that had arrived a split second before Pelleus' own strike when the Regent had swung his sword at Medeia, deflecting the blade with perfect timing.
The sword had shattered into fragments so fine that some had embedded themselves in the Regent's eyes—a testament to the tremendous force exerted by the two weapons colliding from opposite directions.
Pelleus raised his head, contemplating the trajectory from which the dagger had come. In the distance stood a tower facing this very spot.
"Search that area."
"At once, Your Majesty. But this... it's made of Mithril."
Dianzel's eyes narrowed as he examined the dagger alongside his king.
"To throw away a weapon forged from heaven-sent material without even retrieving it..."
Moreover, the skill required to strike and shatter a sword from such an immense distance was extraordinary by any measure. This was no ordinary opponent.
Pelleus' gaze swept across the dagger's razor-sharp edge.
With a sharp flick, the dagger spun from his fingertips and embedded itself between the bricks of the inner fortress wall.
'Just who is getting close to Dea?'
His noble eyebrows twitched with restrained tension.
