First Elder
Richard left Aur's grand mansion with an expressionless face.
Upon entering, he had two beautiful women following him, but now he was alone.
He walked swiftly along the roads, eventually entering an alleyway.
In the narrow confines of the alley, he pulled out a pen and a piece of paper, his expression pensive as he wrote something down and tied it to a bird.
The bird appeared to be an ordinary wild bird, but it remained calm even as Richard secured the message to its left leg. After firmly attaching it, he gave the bird a pat on its wings.
With a whoosh, the bird took off, flying through the air at a terrifying speed.
Once the bird was out of sight, Richard stood in silence for a long while.
Then, suddenly, he roared as loudly as he could, his voice echoing through the alleyway.
With clenched fists, he began to pound the wall in front of him in frustration and anger.
Bang! Bang!
