Meeting Room, Capital Palace
Ez looked at the gathered Asuras and Queens: Boku, Swa, Mige, Nerphyl, Nedira, Nezena, and Nevare. Finally, they were all back in this room—a place that had served as a silent witness to conspiracies, development strategies, and the blueprints of the kingdom's future. Without Moku, only the four Queens and Ez possessed the authority to open this chamber for an emergency meeting.
And this time, the person who had decided to open this chamber was Ez. He summoned all the high department heads of the kingdom, as well as the newly arrived Boku. Not only that, but the four queens, who were supposed to be busy managing the valkyries, were also forced to attend this meeting.
Though the room was filled with powerful individuals, the towering throne at the center remained vacant. That emptiness cast a bitter shadow over them all; it was a painful reminder that the leader who always brought a sense of security and calm was not among them.
