"Morwenna, go get ready with Ravion. Within a month, we're heading to the mainland of the Prime World."
Malenthia's voice was cold as ice, her expression twisted with irritation as she shut her eyes in frustration.
"Yes, my Lady!" Morwenna responded crisply.
Malenthia's gaze then shifted, dark and stormy, to Belladrex, who was still kneeling on the floor. She opened her mouth to speak—but suddenly froze. Her face went pale, and in the next instant, she shot to her feet with a furious roar.
"Who?!"
"Goddamn it—who did this?!"
"M-Mother? What's wrong?" Belladrex stammered, startled by the sudden outburst.
Malenthia's whole body trembled. Her face was ghostly white as she gritted her teeth and spat out the words: "Blackrock Castle is gone."
She was shaking with rage.
Her eyes burned with murderous fury.
"What? What do you mean, 'gone'? Blackrock Castle is… gone?!" Belladrex blinked, stunned, her face frozen in disbelief.
