“M-Madam?”
Yelena faintly heard a startled Colin’s voice, as if he was speaking from a distance. She stared blankly at the bright white light that shone from her hands. Then, she abruptly made a move.
She knew instinctively what she had to do.
She brought her hands towards Thomas, letting the light flow into him.
“Thomas!” Colin shouted in disbelief.

“Let’s conclude our meeting here.”
Kaywhin got up and exited the barrack. After he left, the rest of the men inside the barrack
“As expected, General Mayhard is cool today as well.”
“This punk is stating the obvious.”
“This is a secret, but… honestly, these days, I don’t even think General Mayhard is human. He’s a god.”
“Me too. I think that too.”
The barrack was lively. One of the supplementary soldiers, Dennan Trecis, watched with a sour face.
‘I’ll never get used to their change in attitude.’

A battle front where even the tiniest shred of luck could decide if you live or die. The men who had to put their lives on the line fighting in such a place were troubled by the rumors that followed Kaywhin.
Perhaps that was why they didn’t even try to hide their grievances and discontent with their superior. Sometimes, they even slandered their superior with remarks so severe that they could be considered mutiny, which was punishable by law.
‘That’s what they were like back then.’

“No, we haven’t.”
“At this rate, the war will come to an end in a flash.”
“Haa, General Mayhard. I’ll follow you forever. I can’t live without General Mayhard!”
“General Mayhard can live just fine without a bastard as fickle as you though.”
The sarcastic remark halted the boisterous mood.
“…What? What did you just say?”
“It’s true. What did you say when you left the capital? That a monster cursed by the devil was leading the army…”
“That…!”
“The audacity for you to now chirp, ‘General, General.’”
“You bastard. The same goes for you! You agreed with me that time!”
