The conversation that night lasted until very late.
When everyone had dispersed, Bunduk and Abel walked out of the restaurant side by side.
Standing outside the restaurant door, Abel asked Bunduk, “Commander Bunduk, don’t you hate Raphael?”
“I hate him,”Bunduk said. “But people can’t be resurrected from the dead. We are all people controlled by fate. Seeing his pained expression, I believe that he will help us find the leader of the Dark Forces.”
Abel nodded at Bunduk and said, “Indeed. Right now, the most important thing is to expose the dark forces’conspiracy.”
“It’s getting late. Go back and rest early. We have to leave early tomorrow,”Bunduk said to Abel.
“Yes.”After bowing, Abel turned around and walked towards his tent.
When he passed by Raphael’s tent, he stood at the door and hesitated for a long time. Then, he lifted the curtain and walked in.
When he saw that Raphael had already fallen asleep on the bed, Abel blew out the candlestick on the table and quietly retreated.
In the darkness, Raphael opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the door. However, he only caught Abel’s back.
The next morning, before Kant woke up. Bunduk and Abel led a portion of the soldier and set off.
From the camp to the ship company by the sea, they needed to go through more than half of the shore.
The soldier’s footsteps were extremely fast. As they ran, they checked if there were any traps in the grass by the road, or if there were signs of people squatting.
When the Caradia soldier raised dust on the ground, the Elven soldier flew in the air. From time to time, he jumped back and forth between the branches, scaring the birds on the trees out of the forest.
“We have checked everywhere. There is no ambush,”Abel reported to bandark.
Abel looked behind him and said, “Then let’s withdraw the troops. His Majesty Kant is probably preparing to wash up.”
“Yes.”Abel nodded. “Withdraw the troops!”
When the group returned to the military barrack, Kant had already tidied up his clothes and was waiting for them with a group of soldiers in the open space of the camp.
“You’re back?”Kant said to the two leaders.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”Bunduk and Abel squatted down and saluted together. “We have already examined the path of this journey and did not find any problems. We can confirm that it is safe.”
“Alright, let’s set off.”Kant nodded and said.
The Elven soldier stayed behind and was responsible for guarding the military barrack. Abel was responsible for leading all the CARADIA soldier to escort Kant to the ship company.
At noon, a group of people arrived at Pikozawa sea transport.
The ship company sent many people to welcome Kant at the door. Some people even went forward to offer a wreath to Kant. However, they were stopped by Bunduk.
“Where’s President Clough?”Abel asked.
“The president is waiting for you in the office upstairs.”A siren walked out and made an introduction to the guests. “However, the conference room upstairs isn’t that big. Can you all please rest in the VIP room for a while…”
“Yes.”Kant nodded and agreed. “Bunduk and Abel, follow me up to meet the president. The rest of the soldier follow the attendants to the lounge to wait.”
“Thank you for your cooperation.”The sea monster bowed and nodded. “My Lords, please follow me.”
The sea monster stood at the front and led the way. Abel followed closely behind. Behind him was Kant, and behind Kant was Bunduk. The two of them surrounded Kant to ensure his safety.
“Dong Dong Dong.”The sea monster walked up the stairs and stopped in front of a door. She raised her hand and gently knocked on the door. “Lord Clough. The guests from Caradia have arrived.”
“Please come in.”Clough’s voice came through the door.
The siren unlocked the door and pushed it open. She bowed and made an inviting gesture to Kant and the others.
Abel Strode in. He had met President Clough before, so he was not unfamiliar with the environment of this office.
When Kant entered the door, he noticed Clough’s identity. He was also a siren. His light blue skin had fish scales on it, and his body was rather bloated. However, his eyes were unexpectedly lively. His clothes emitted the aura of a merchant.
Clough walked forward with a smile and hugged Kant. He greeted, “King Kant of Caradia. This is our first meeting. Please take care of us.”
“Hello.”Kant nodded and replied briefly.
After Bunduk and Abel shook hands with Kroft, Kroft returned to his seat and gestured for the three of them to take their seats.
“A large part of the responsibility for this accident lies with the crew members of our ship company. For this, I represent to express our heartfelt apologies to your Majesty Kant.”The conversation officially began. Clough pursed his dry lips and spoke first.
“This matter is the result of the employees’own conduct problems, and it is also affected by many unexpected external factors. President, you don’t have to apologize to us.”Kant waved his hand and replied.
“I heard that the ship’s society retrieved the remains of a portion of the crew from the bottom of the sea…”Abel said.
“Yes.”The president’s expression became solemn. He nodded and said, “We have already detected the ingredients of the knockout powder on a portion of the dead crew members. They must have been killed after rejecting the bribe.”
“I see…”Kant lowered his head and mourned for the dead crew members.
“The crew members are all orphans adopted by me. There are no relatives on the island,”the president stated. “I didn’t expect that there would be someone among them who watched their brothers and sisters who grew up together being hurt but remained unmoved.”
“Since the crew members are already under surveillance, president, what are your plans?”Bunduk asked.
“I’m sorry.”The president sighed and said, “I just want to cut ties with them now. Our ship society will not give them a position to serve such crew members.”
“Yes.”Kant nodded and said, “Thank you, President Clough, for your assistance over the past few days. Leave the rest to us.”
“What do you plan to do?”The captain asked nervously.
“Since you have already planned to withdraw from this matter, captain, our plan will naturally not be revealed to you,”Abel stood up and explained.
“You’re right.”Clough was stunned for a second and said, “The life and death of those crew members has nothing to do with me anymore.”
After staying on the island for so many years, President Clough was not sensitive to actions such as ‘execution’.
“Yes.”Kant nodded to Clough’s attitude, he stood up and said, “I’ve already seen the compensation form from the ship company. I said from the beginning that you’re not responsible for this accident. Forget about the compensation.”
