That's how untouchable they were.
And why?
Because their empire wasn't built on politics. A priestess sat at the head of the Serenova Family. Better than anyone, each empire knew that Serenova Enterprises controlled at least 60% of their economy and 30% of their courts. And now—that family had aligned itself with House Obsidian?
Silent Night's face turned grim.
This wasn't just bad.
This was disastrous.
Drakos' entire plan—every single effort he had made to crush House Obsidian—was rotting away before it even began. If House Obsidian gained the Serenova Family's blessing…
They wouldn't just be powerful.
They would be untouchable than they were right now.
Her fingers twitched.
Silent Night couldn't wait any longer.
Every second mattered. Every passing moment meant the Dragon Empire was slipping further behind, its influence crumbling while House Obsidian rose higher—untouchable, unstoppable.
