Receiving Sean's message, Dorodo went into overdrive.

Dorodo was placed on high alert. Though the city gates were not closed, the people entering and leaving were

carefully checked to prevent spies from other city-states.

At the same time, Mayor Quentin had contacted closely with the two chiliarches, Gregory and Anthony.

After a brief meeting, Quentin and the chiliarch Anthony continued to stay in Dorodo in case something went

wrong.

With a legion of 1,500 city defense soldiers, Gregory headed toward Crosac.

If things turned out to be the worst, Dorodo would go to war with Crosac as fast as possible to catch Crosac by

surprise.

Meanwhile, amid the chaos created by the war, Sean and other members of the diplomatic convoy would also have

a chance to escape from Crosac and meet up with Dorodo's army.

As soon as Sean and the others left Crosac to meet up with Dorodo's army, they could do whatever they wanted.

Even with Crosac's larger army, and even if Claremento was one of the most famous generals in the City-State

Union, annihilating 1,500 men of Dorodo's army and capturing or killing Sean and his gang would have been

difficult.

That was what Sean prepared and arranged. Then they would see how things develop.

The next morning.

Sean was playing chess with Zander in the room.

There was suddenly a loud banging on the door, and Zander said with a chuckle, "Commander, don't touch my

chess pieces while I open the door."

"Am I like that?" Sean said with a chuckle.

Zander finished speaking and opened the door. He found an unexpected woman, who else could it be but Aria?

"It's you!" Zander's expression changed slightly.

He and Sean had already discussed the possible consequences yesterday, and Aria's appearance proved that things

had indeed turned out to be the worst of all possible outcomes that Sean and Zander had anticipated.

Mayor Claremento had placed Aria and Lisha under house arrest, not allowing them to leave their rooms. However,

Aria appeared instead of Lisha.

What did that mean?

It meant Mayor Claremento had probably believed Aria and might have decided to make Aria his successor.

Perhaps Lisha was dead.

Perhaps a lifetime of house arrest awaited her.

It was the cruelty of political warfare that the winner would always be covered in glory, no matter what shameless

things they had done to win.

The loser would always be in disgrace-no matter what kind of efforts they had made before failing.

"It's me. Is your boss there?" Aria asked haughtily.

Sean had already heard Aria's voice. Without Zander telling him, he walked over and let Aria into the room.

Although he and Aria were enemies, there was no need to be hostile to each other whenever they met.

Only the weak could not control their emotions. Genuine wise people and masters never revealed their expressions.

"Zander, pour Ms. Aria a cup of coffee..." Sean said quietly.

Zander did not hesitate. He replied in acknowledgment and turned around to make Aria some coffee.
