Hels dispatched a pigeon messenger to report the Dwarf ambush on Marquis Kuren in the Dragon Ridge Mountain Range to the Royal Capital.
The nature of this incident was very serious. The Dwarves' actions were no longer just a provocation.
To kill the lord of the western domain, the Family Head of the Figrola family, one of the Twelve Great Nobles of the Empire, such behavior was tantamount to a declaration of war.
Hels hoped the Empire could send reinforcements to avenge his father and the noble knights who died, or at the very least, provide the expeditionary army with provisions and financial support.
However, the expectant Hels did not receive aid from the New Emperor; instead, Gars demanded that he set off immediately to lead his army to Lion Heart Castle and guard the Royal Capital.
Upon receiving the order, Hels's brows furrowed deeply.
