In the vast land of the Southern region of their empire, a huge flying eagle spreads its wing and made a circular motion in the skies. There was a silver tube tied on it that sparkles every time the sun hit its surface. After flying for another round above the skies, the eagle saw the mansion painted blue and it made a quick turn to go down. The eagle landed on a huge window where the owner of the mansion is waiting for his arrival. It is Duke Valencia, Emperor Halil's blood cousin.Approaching the eagle, the Duke untied the silver tube from the eagle's talon before giving it a glass of clean water to drink. The Duke sat on his chair again and opened the tube. There was a thick rolled paper inside of it. He opened the silver tube and read the words written inside the letter. After reading the letter, a small smile showed on his face. Then slowly, a sinister laugh escaped from his lips before he crumple the paper in his hand."This is impossible." The Duke said to himself. "Those two

"I will send my secretary to send you a few paintings in our treasury that you can display in your mansion.""There's no need for that. It will only become too much work for my employees." Charlotte replied."Don't be like that. Just treat it as a reward for the bravery you showed in our birthday banquet.""You are too stubborn. But forget it. Just drink the tea that I brought here. The chef is worried and says it will help you calm your nerves." "Oh."Prince Marius slowly picked up the cup and smelled the liquid in it. After cooling it for a while, he drinks the tea and the minty taste of it quickly spreads in his mouth.

When Charlotte opens her eyes, she feels dizzy and her legs suddenly lose their strength making her sit on the ground. She can also feel a faint throbbing sensation in her chest. Charlotte has to take a few deep breaths before shaking her head. Whoever used that teleportation spell on her is definitely a skilled magician. People who use magic are not rare in their empire although only a few can succeed in this field. Summoning a teleportation circle on someone away from you can only be achieved if the caster has a lot of mana in his body and certainly knows how to perform advanced magic.

Charlotte mockingly said."I don't have any name." He slowly replied.Charlotte gives the man a questioning look."I don't possess such an important thing like that."Charlotte stares at him with squinted eyes. She's trying to see if he is just lying to her or not. But all she can see is his serious expression while looking back at him. If this young man is just trying to fool her, then he can definitely compete with the best stage actors and actresses performing in the famous opera house in their empire."Why don't you give me a name?" The silver-haired man suddenly asked.The female General turns her head around and gives him a frown. Charlotte has already noticed it the first time she met this young man.
