"No, Your Majesty," she replied instantly. "The reason for the summon, as far as we've confirmed, was that the Emperor of Peanu was seen flying back to his palace covered in blood, without his armor.
Soon after, the urgent call went out. But the strangest thing, multiple Grandmasters across Peanu have stopped responding. Missing, or completely gone. So far, we've tracked at least five unaccounted for."
The Emperor went silent for a few breaths before he asked, "And why do you believe Billion is involved?"
The woman coughed, hesitating.
"Because… the latest reports say a massive beast is circling above the capital palace. Two Grandmasters went to face it. Both were killed. And the beast matches exactly the description of the flying creature Commander Billion commands."
My mouth fell open before I forced it shut again. His summons could kill Grandmasters now?
Arkas leaned forward, his tone calm but carrying excitement. "His name is Silver."
