"Why…?"
Count Kaelen Thornvale shivers, his body trembling from a mix of both fear and deeply suppressed rage. His deep glare is directed at the ground, but the person he intends it for is only a small distance from him.
The man sits comfortably, his laid-back body completely still as he hums with a casual demeanor.
Who else would it be but the Leviathan?
"Why did you do that to the Aditi Estate? You… said it would only be Javier Aditi…"
"Hm?" The Leviathan pauses for a moment, staring at the Count with a look of sheer incredulity.
"When did I ever say that?"
"B-but you—!" Count Kaelen gasps in exasperation. "Sir, look, the matter is blowing up in the Kingdom right now. We've operated in the shadows for so long, but doing this… it risks everything."
Naturally, the Count doesn't feel any kind of remorse for the death of Javier's Household.
Many more would be dying in the war he intends to cause.
