Chapter 992 The Black Bead

• Valorheart Manor stood quietly within Hofcaster, unnoticed by anyone. Jonathan did not host any grand feast, yet what was intriguing was that on the day the manor was opened, numerous high-ranking officials and nobles came by to present their gifts.
• Tyrone and Wilson, of course, did not show up. However, a messenger from the inner court did send over a gift on behalf of the Literary Marquis.
• Those high-ranking officials and nobles had their attendants deliver gifts. After presenting their offerings, they would leave without staying for a meal. In the evening, Jonathan took inventory of the gifts. The value of those gifts was indeed substantial.
