The guard lightly knocked on the door and explained, "Marquis, an edict from Triumph City."
The guard's voice had just fallen.
From behind the closed wooden door, a man's voice emerged.
"Enter."
The guard responded and gently pushed open the door, stepping into the room.
As he entered, a faint fragrance of incense wafted into his nose.
Without looking around, the guard headed straight toward Marquis Mark Duca at the desk.
Coming to about four or five meters from the desk, the guard bowed slightly and said, "Marquis, an edict from Triumph City."
Mark continued reading a document without raising his head.
"Put it down."
The guard quickly complied.
Mark continued, "Go and summon Knight Commander Godfrey to the study."
"Tell him I have important matters to discuss with him."
The guard responded and quickly withdrew.
Until the door, which was opened, was closed again.
Only then did Mark put down the document he was reading and tossed it aside.
