The man leading the Hermit Order walked into the room, glanced around, then found a seat on the sofa.
"You're late, Mike."
The woman holding a wine glass stood up elegantly, a hint of amusement in her eyes: "The times for the Hermit Order lately must be tough, right? Both the East Victory Imperial and the Great Yan Imperial should be striking at the Hermit Order."
"The Holy Light Church and the Church of Serenity both regard your Hermit Order as a primary target."
The man sat down calmly, his tone steady: "No need for the Countess to worry, our situation is still manageable. The two Empires have been trying to eradicate us for years, yet it hasn't yielded any results."
"That's good."
The Countess put down her wine glass, sitting at the main seat of the sofa encircling the table, looking at the others.
Bloodthirsty Mike of the Hermit Order.
Mike Tea of Life's Ardor.
The Frank brothers of the Steel Front.
