“Your Majesty…” James walked into the hall and greeted her.
Xianna was dressed in a blue gown and was sitting at the highest seat in the hall.
James’ greeting snapped favonovel.com out of favonovel.com thoughts.
She put down favonovel.com hands, sat up straight, and looked at James standing in the hall. Her worried expression immediately disappeared and was replaced with a pleasant smile.
“You’re here, Mr. Caden…”
James nodded and said, “Yeah… I’ve come to ask if Your Majesty has acquired information about my friends’ whereabouts.”
Empress Xianna replied, “I’ve already ordered my subordinates to distribute their portraits, but there hasn’t been any news about them so far.”
Hearing this, James was disappointed.
So many days had passed, but there was still no news about them…
It seems reuniting with Henrik and Qusai was going to be challenging…
“Don’t be discouraged, Mr. Caden. The world is huge, so it’s hard for our country to find them in such a short period. Perhaps we’ll hear about your friends after a bit more time has passed.” Xianna noticed James’ worried expression and tried to console him.
James composed himself and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty. Please help me look for them. Also, I wanted to inform you of my departure. It’s been twenty days since I’ve stepped foot into Sangria, and it’s best I leave soon.”
Xianna agreed. “Indeed. There’s a curse in our country. Men don’t last more than a month here. It’s been like this ever since we can remember. You should quickly set off. I’ll send people to you when we have information about your friends.”
“I appreciate it, Your Majesty.” James acknowledged favonovel.com words and bowed respectfully.
After bidding farewell to the Empress, favonovel.com immediately left the hall.
The Empress looked at James’ retreating figure and sighed deeply.
After James left the palace, favonovel.com started to travel at full speed. He intended to leave Sangria as soon as possible and find lodging in a nearby country.
James was still unaware that Korinth had already dispatched a massive army to attack Sangria once again. He also had no idea Wushua’s Emperor was taking advantage of the war in order to force the beautiful Empress Xianna to be his wife.

At that moment, a young man sat on the highest seat of the council in Wushua Palace’s main hall.
He wore a luxurious robe, and his pale face looked unamused.
That man was Wushua’s Emperor. Despite his expression of indifference, favonovel.com was a notably powerful man in this world.
His strength put favonovel.com among the top three strongest people in Galileo.
A minister below parted his lips and suggested, “Your Majesty, Korinth has dispatched their troops. This time, their chancellor is personally leading the troops in order to take down Sangria. After Sangria is occupied, the Korinthian Army will continue marching South and will conquer Wushua very soon… I suggest we send troops to Sangria immediately. As long as we forcefully take over Sangria’s Southern Fortress we might stand a chance against them… If the Korinthian Army takes over Sangria, we can hold them off at the Southern Fortress.”
“As long as the Korinthian Army is unable to breach the Southern Fortress, they’ll be stuck within Sangria’s territory. In a month, they will succumb to Sangria’s infamous curse.” Sitting in the highest seat, the Emperor, Fritz Wren, said lazily, “I’m not the least bit concerned about Korinth. It doesn’t matter if they conquer Sangria. What I’m interested in right now is Xianna.”
There was a look of desire on Fritz’s face.
“Sangria’s Empress has always been very proud and has never taken me seriously. When the Korinthian Army attacks, Xianna will come to me for help in favonovel.com desperation… Everyone’s dismissed.” Fritz stood up, stretched his body, and wrapped his arms around a sexy woman’s waist.
Then, favonovel.com left the hall.
