Shane exclaimed loudly as he fell to his knees, bowing. His eyes welled with tears, looking like he was in pain at just

having lost a loved one.

Although it was an act, it was much more convincing than Everett’s.

“General Rhys of the Iron Stallion Cavalry has arrived!” Right then, they heard a loud announcement from the door.

Following closely, a heroic-looking, middle-aged man walked in imposingly. He carried various weapons with him

and was clad in golden armor.

This person was none other than the Iron Stallion Cavalry’s first-ranking Grand General-Julius Rhys!

Julius Rhys was not only the Grand General of the Iron Stallion Cavalry but also Rufus’ cousin.

From a young age, he excelled in both the literary and martial arts, displaying exceptional talent in various aspects.

If not for Rufus’ existence, he would have been the Rhys family’s most outstanding genius.

Unfortunately, in the face of an unparalleled hero like Rufus, even the most formidable talents would pale in

“Greetings, Grand General Rhys!”

Upon seeing Julius, both Everett and Shane dropped their affected demeanor and bowed respectfully.

“The Dragon Guard?”

Julius gritted his teeth in anger and roared, “Guards! Gather all the troops and search the entire city. We must

capture the killers and bring them to justice!”

“Wait!” Eloise stopped him.

“Julius, I know you’re deeply saddened, but we can’t afford to escalate things right now.”

“My brother is already dead! There’s no more reason to be afraid! The killers must pay for what they have done!”

Julius exclaimed in anger.

“It is because Rufus has passed away that we need to remain calm!”

Eloise’s expression was grave. “The situation within West Lucozia is not stable yet. Once news of Rufus’ death

spreads out, it will inevitably have a huge impact and potentially even trigger a war.

“West Lucozia will be plunged into chaos by then.”

“Then what should we do? We can’t just let the killer go free, can we?” Julius was indignant.

“I’ve already sent Albert to investigate.
