After some time, Henry was able to meet John,

Henry was Currently in John’s Office,

John signaled Taylor to bring in some classified documents and spoke to Henry, "I guess you won’t be liking any chit-chat so I will come straight to the main point . This is all the information that we collected when we were confronting Duke Fjord and Evan . This also has all the events which took place after Evan’s death .

Henry looked at all the documents and understood what was going on from the start to the end . He also understood and came to the conclusion that it really was Prince Hector’s conspiracy so that Duke Fjord could become a punching bag for them .

John asked him as he was reading the documents, "Do you still want to say anything? I can say you with confidence that all the information provided to you here is correct and won’t have any discrepancies . "

Henry shook his head and gave his opinion, "No, I believe you . I have a request, I would like to meet your Knight Jake . I hope you don’t mind but I would also like to get the body of my wife or to know about the whereabouts to give her a proper funeral for her sacrifice to save Lucius . I would also like to know about the whereabouts of Lucius if you have any . "

John nodded as Taylor narrated the events,

Taylor then reported, "Well, we have the body your wife, during the commotion we had 3 spies at Laguna city who were able to recover the body of your wife, they knew that you were in coma and were traveling with us, so as a form of goodwill they recovered her body in the commotion . As we were short of people, we were unable to save her . However, they were still able to help your son get out of the city . As your kid was unwilling to trust our men he ran away while they were traveling to the other city . I guess he feared them looking out for the money he took before leaving the city . Currently, we only know that he left for the north when he escaped . As for Jake, you can only meet him tomorrow, currently, he is training his team . "

Henry sighed as he heard them, "Looking at Jake and Lord John . I believe I shouldn’t give up on believing a Lord and his Knight’s loyalty towards each other . I guess I made the wrong choice when I choose to become House Fjord’s knight at a young age . Before leaving I would like to give a message to Jake, I am sorry for abandoning him in his time of need . He still saved me even after I targeted him just a few days back . I guess he recognized me long back and hence saved me back then . The girl he protected last time around is safe . "

"Meanwhile, I will be leaving in search of Lucius . Lord John, Thank you for giving me your precious time . You are an honorable Lord . Just the fact that you stood by your men last time around was big as most lords would have abandoned their knights and men in front of a crisis for short term gains . Before leaving I would also like to know the whereabouts of my Wife’s body . "

Taylor then gave him one more report as he saw that Henry was about to leave, "Before you leave, One more thing, According to our sources the guy Sebastian who testified against you is a spy of Prince Hector . They wanted to make sure that their plan was a success however you fell into the river and hence decided to frame you in . Grim, Evan’s older brother also helped Darius hoping he can gain most of the knight’s loyalty and backing . While Ralph is still mysterious and keeps most of his plans under wraps . There is one more rumor going around that one of the brothers, Grim or Ralph helped Prince Hector in assassinating Evan . Well, we are not sure about this though . As for your wife’s body, you can find it at Eastern port city’s Dock . "

Henry nodded and thanked him, "Thank you for your information, Butler Taylor . I will be leaving now for the eastern port city . "

John then gave him his offer before leaving, "Why don’t you join us, If you don’t want to be my knight, that won’t be a problem as I have seen your actions and understand that you are someone that I can trust . We can also help you find your Boy, Lucius . I can also give you an appropriate position in our navy and a chance to fight Duke Fjord’s men . We will most likely have a war with them . What do you say?"
