Intruder In The Royal Treasury

"How incompetent can you people get?" The old man in the middle asked gently. 

His voice was low but steady. 

The current Emperor bowed his head, unable to answer. This was the first time something like this had happened in the castle, and being the one in charge, he was naturally the one who would be blamed when his superiors came. 

"Great Grandfather, if I…" 

"You too, with your intelligence, I expected you to find this person right from when that kid was almost assassinated. But you've all disappointed me," The old man interrupted Jason. 

Jason dropped his head, not daring to speak up again. Unlike his Father, in the face of his Great Grandfather, he didn't have any courage. 

The Sage Plane experts in the hall kept quiet, afraid to offend the old man any further. 

"Brother, scolding them wouldn't change anything," An old man almost identical to the one Jason referred to as Great Grandfather calmed the old man down.
