To everyone's surprise, during the ensuing period, not only did the entire king's capital not show any sign of impending turmoil, but an eerie peace prevailed.
This was not the calm before a storm; it was truly as if all commotion had disappeared, frighteningly tranquil.
Reiger constantly monitored the movements in the king's capital through Yuri's intelligence network, only for Yuri to report that indeed nothing was happening, which was utterly baffling.
For this reason, Reiger proactively contacted the Codelion Family for the first time, hoping to obtain some insider information through Saint Charia.

"What exactly is going on now?"
Reiger pondered repeatedly.
He could not believe the king's capital would be so quiet, so peaceful at this moment.
