When the plot-skips players into the game world

Chapter 1096: Chapter 429: Avalon’s 2nd Legion

April 6th, Avalon.

Isabel sat calmly in her study, flipping through the letters that had been sent back.

“How amusing.”

She flicked the edge of the letter with her finger and chuckled softly. “What’s your take on this, Lord Hermes?”

A week earlier, Isabel had sent a letter to Star Antimony, expressing her intention to conduct an “official state visit.”

However, Star Antimony had not responded to the message immediately.

Although Avalon and Star Antimony were separated by a sea, the exchange of messages was not easily disrupted.

This was because international letters of this level were handled by the Church for delivery. The Candle Master’s Apostle, “Wings of Life Fire,” was fond of carrying out delivery tasks for others, and messages sent by Apostles and transported by the Church were kept as secure as possible. This eliminated chances of “letters getting lost” or “letters being sent but not arriving.”

Yet, after such a long delay, Star Antimony still hadn’t replied… but coincidentally, they responded immediately after the Holy Nation began recruiting troops yesterday.

Isabel, however, was neither angry nor annoyed. Her eyes held a hint of amusement, and her demeanor was calm and composed.

Her gaze became even more luminous, exuding the steadiness befitting a monarch.

“They are frightened, Your Majesty.”

Mycroft Hermes spoke without lifting his head.

He was dressed in a light sweater and white shirt, seated across from Isabel, meticulously arranging documents.
