The Might of the Ancestors

The Might of the Ancestor

On the morning of July 3, three high-ranking members of the Fiat Family from the imperial capital arrived at the palace to question Landen about the freezing of Gallop Fund subsidies. Although there were only three official high-ranking representatives, more than a dozen high- and mid-ranking members from the various main and branch lines had come along with them.

After the dragon proposed freezing the distribution of subsidies, those most affected were the various supporters of Fiat. Yet just two days ago, they had received another application from Landen, requesting a one-time withdrawal of 100,000 Gold Coins from the fund. That was practically asking them to fight to the death.

In the eyes of the leader, Casaremon Gallop, the entire younger generation of the family relied completely on the subsidies provided by the fund. Although a Fairy Queen had suddenly appeared behind Landen now, he still could not do whatever he pleased with the fund.

The group stormed into the reception hall of Padmira Palace in a menacing rush, only to see Yawenni Golden Moon, who had likewise come from the imperial capital.

Yawenni Golden Moon—the deputy commander of the imperial capital's Sky Knight Order, the God Emperor's direct granddaughter, and the inheritor of Golden Moon. The moment Casaremon saw her, his momentum shrank by thirty percent. Pointing at Landen, he asked, "Count Landen, we merely came to discuss family affairs with you. Was there any need to invite the Imperial Capital Knights as well?"

"I came to take care of my grandaunt," Yawenni said, waving a hand, then rose and pointed at a door nearby. "Your ancestor, the queen consort of King Philip Gallop, Grand Princess Halcala Oak, arrived here yesterday. You will be able to meet her shortly."

"Halcala?" Casaremon was somewhat dazed.
