JASPER dropped the whip in his hand after watching the ridiculous video playing on the screen that appeared out of thin air.
Helstor, that damned ancient god, just announced that Princess Neoma was gone.
Then a short and clear video of Prince crying while hugging Princess Neoma's lifeless body came up.
If the Crown Prince was crying like that…
"No," Jasper whispered in disbelief. "Princess Neoma… my precious little sister…"
<"Jasper Hawthorne!">
It was Duckie– his Elemental Guardian– who called out his name.
<"I know you're damned shocked! I am, too! But the fucking reanimated corpses are already here! We need to catch them! If these little shits get past our life of defense, then they'll head straight to the palace! Most of the citizens of the capital are in the palace, so we must catch all the bastards here!">
Right.
