"Your Highness!" Alex shouted in panic as he rushed over.
Eldrin and Alina immediately followed behind him, their expressions just as horrified.
Alex knelt in front of Aldrian and checked his body, which had already gone cold.
The dagger had pierced deep into his heart. The perpetrator had killed Aldrian in a brutally merciless way.
"Damn…" Alex gritted his teeth. "Who dared to do this!? Who!?"
His voice thundered throughout the room. Eldrin could only remain silent, while Alina began to sob.
Her older brother had died just like that, and she hadn't even realized it.
"Alex, calm down," Eldrin said heavily. "We must report this to His Majesty the King and Her Majesty the Queen. But before that, we need to find out who the killer is."
His voice turned cold, filled with a strong intent to kill.
Alex nodded grimly. He inspected Aldrian's body again, then said, "His body is already stiff and cold. His Highness has likely been dead for more than half an hour. Besides…"
