The guards exchanged glances, staring at Kai before explaining that Sylas was not at the royal family's residence that night. The young king was in the ballroom because they were holding a coronation party for Sylas.
Kai bowed his head. He didn't know. So, it was pointless for him to come there. He realized that Sylas must be very busy at the moment. Kai bowed his head again, thanked them, and turned to leave.
Dionar Barn walked out with Visen. He was bringing several horses as a gift for Sylas. As Lady Miranda's younger brother, he was allowed to enter the royal family's residence.
As the head of security in the capital, his eyes were trained to notice even the smallest details. Kai's unusual appearance caught his attention.
"Who is he in the palace of the royal family?" asked Dionar.
Visen seemed reluctant to answer. He knew Dionar, a venomous snake who had a thousand ways to bring down people he didn't like.
