77. The Fallen and Darkened Promiscuous Emperor Must Receive His Own Machete and Good Ship

The situation in Revendreth could already be called a changing of the divine artifact and chaos under heaven.

The ferocious rebels had surrounded Castle Nathria. Under the Stonewright's personal supervision at the front lines, the Venthyr and Nathrezim under Sire Denathrius were beaten back again and again.

Neither side had any reason to back down, so the intensity of this coup's fighting quickly rose to
