This time, when Emery entered the Ouroboros Palace once again, there were no other people present except the Oroboros Queen and Duke Syre. Unlike the last time, where there were other higher-ups of the clan, this meeting was going to be a private one.

Even so, it didn't mean the formless pressure Emery experienced as he entered the grand hall would lessen. In fact, now that there were only two grand magus level figures, he felt as if the pressure imposed on him became even stronger.

As Emery got closer to the throne, he could see the queen was smiling.

"Ah, Emery Ambrose, our talented young friend… I heard that you had quite an exciting trip." The queen said with a rather ambiguous smile on her face.

Emery was silent, as his mind drove into motion, trying to figure out what the queen was talking about. By the next sentence, he realized she was talking about the Arbor master.
