Lukas and Leonhard were, at this moment, heading to the throne hall, where Franz was waiting for them.

While Leonhard was showing quite an aloof expression, inside him, there was a vast array of emotions going on.

Leonhard sighed internally. 'What is going to happen now? Perhaps he wants to send me to another place so I can make the bond between one of its powerful families and the Habsburg house stronger? That would probably mean that he really is suspecting that me and Lukas are plotting against him. I mean, we do hate him, but we are not plotting against him... yet,' he thought.

Lukas, meanwhile, knew that Leonhard was very anxious about this call from Franz. Even though Leonhard wasn't really showing it in his face at all, Lukas knew him, and knew that he didn't feel safe to face his father in these circumstances.
