When Lakunio returned to Tielu Castle, Sanruan was already waiting at the gate.
Seeing the dusty and disheveled Lakunio returning, Sanruan approached angrily, but didn't know what to say.
"I didn't know the Holy Alliance would take Golden Soup Castle. It's my fault, and I will plead guilty to His Majesty Serafe," Lakunio calmly said.
Sanruan was first astonished, and then all his pent-up anger, confusion, and frustration disappeared.
He stood stiffly for a moment before speaking, "Walk?"
"Let's go." Lakunio nodded, and the two abandoned the weary army and began walking along the moat of Tielu Castle.
"Now that the army has contracted, our forces are more concentrated. Despite the cost of fifty thousand soldiers, at least your wish is fulfilled."
Your wish fulfilled? Lakunio didn't understand for a moment. Could it be... he guessed?
No, if he had guessed, he definitely wouldn't say the cost of fifty thousand soldiers; it's his achievement.
