"Worth it!" Flamut said gravely, his voice cold. "I am my master's slave; everything I have was bestowed by my master. You, a lowly commoner accustomed to betrayal, wouldn't understand what loyalty means!"
CLATTER.
His disdainful tone caused the Black Armored Army soldiers to glare with anger, brandishing their blades toward him.
Thunder Spear Tucker was the soul of the Black Armored Army. He would never allow others to disgrace it!
"Loyalty?"
Tucker scoffed. "The ancestors of these current Kings and Dukes betrayed and fractured the empire, leading to the creation of kingdoms like Gando, Kolon, and others. They abandoned those they pledged loyalty to. Who said they were wrong? If others did it, why can't I? If someone offers better terms, why shouldn't I accept?"
"Hmph!" Flamut snorted. "You don't need to make excuses for yourself. The disloyalty of others is no excuse for you to betray your master."
