He rubbed his pudgy hands together, salivating at the beautiful woman before him. "I didn't know you'd be visiting, Lady Silverbell! Sorry for not preparing a reception for you!" "Save the formalities." Silverbell maintained her cool demeanor as the chief of the Martial Alliance, the look on her face warning others to keep their distance. "I cfor one reason-I want you to release one of your prisoners." "What..." Draco's eyes widened at Silverbell's cool yet melodious voice, but he was so fat that his eyes did not widen all that much.

Were there many others who had aplished such feats? In fact, the mention of his title alone left Draco's throat dry and his face covered in sweat.
"T-Then..." he stammered. "Who is the prisoner to the Lord of the Southern Woods...?" "His only son," Silverbell replied.
"Huh?!" Thunderstruck, Draco dropped to his knees right then, his whole body shaking.
