"Father, we must stop the Abyssal Sect, or else..."
Or else, even if they seized control of the Caster City State, they would be left with nothing more than a desolate, uninhabited shell.
Old Count Ernst understood his meaning. They absolutely could not allow the Abyssal Sect to summon those terrifying Abyssal Creatures, or Caster would be destroyed.
But what he couldn't understand was this: Ales had eliminated the Bone-Eating Mother Worm and even killed the Favored One who came to conduct the sacrificial ritual...
Why weren't the members of the Abyssal Sect dead?
"Father..."
Before he could say more, Old Ernst pushed his doubts aside. "Send Mitra over there. The sacrificial ritual must be stopped!"
"Also, arrange for the Nascimento and Seth clans to go to the Secret Investigation Department and the City Guard. We absolutely cannot let them stir up any more trouble."
