"We can't go on like this!"
In the midst of everyone's disagreements and discussions, Earl Heerde slammed the table and stood up, looking at those present and speaking angrily. "I think it's necessary to take some measures to stop these Wizards from acting recklessly within the kingdom!"
However, Heerde's impassioned speech failed to win applause; instead, it garnered mockery.
"Measures? What do you plan to do, Earl Heerde?" Viscount Ske mocked mercilessly. "Gather your guards and Knights to seek justice in Fire Oil City?"
By now, these Wizards were in their heyday, having consecutively defeated the church's crusading army, and fought their way deep into the empire's territory!
Even if they were reluctant to believe it, they had to face the fact that the strength of these nobles alone was simply not enough to shake the rule of the Wizards, let alone defeat the kingdom's guards!
The end of Duke Rickman was the best proof of this.
