Chapter 243: Scheming

In Walganus's study, he and his son Sagar were waiting for the people they sent to investigate return. While waiting Walganus was thinking of the different people that would oppose his family.

'It could also be one of those old b*stards greedily eyeing my family's assets. Mages might have a great influence in this country, but we're still under the buffoons rule. The king might not have as much power as everyone thinks, but he still has enough power to do some sneaky moves in the shadows. Not to mention those greedy nobles of his.'
