25. The Baron's Banquet

Sgurr Town.

At the Baron's Mansion.

Todd Rackman clasped his hands together, looking deeply troubled.

A close attendant patiently served him—it was Todd's new butler, named Charlotte, who had a knack for pleasing the Baron with his words.

Todd couldn't help but ask the attendant, "What should I do? My father has already sent a message. The Allied Forces might choose Sgurr Town as their camp. Once they discover my collusion with the Ashen Nest, then..."

Thinking of his father's crimson eyes made Todd's body shiver uncontrollably.

The attendant simply said, "You must make a choice. You can choose to become a faithful servant of the evil dragons, or become... the hero of your family."

"What should I do?"

Todd clung to the suggestion like a lifeline.

The attendant replied, "It's straightforward. The first step is to eliminate Hart and report the situation here to your family."
