He continued to treat him gently.
However, Cale quickly started to say what he needed to say as if he didn�t hear that gentle tone at all.
Alberu had no choice but to realize that the odd vibe in the room was not because of what he had thought earlier.

�I� Couldn�t trick the White Star at all.�
�Hmm? What do you mean?�
�Didn�t I mention that there was something I had originally planned?�
�Yes?�

Cale could not understand what just happened with the White Star no matter how many times he thought about it.

�But you see� The White Star realized almost immediately that the Underground City was fake.�

Alberu�s expression stiffened.

��Does that mean your entire plan became useless?�
�Yes, sir. That is why the White Star will come to the Roan Kingdom�s northwest region since he knows that the Land of Death does not have the power he was looking for.�
�Ah.�

Alberu finally understood the situation.

�That was why you said the White Star would soon invade the Roan Kingdom.�
�Yes, sir. That�s right. But you see��
�Yes?�

�He has more to say?�

Alberu wanted to quickly plan more things to prepare for the White Star�s invasion, but he needed to hear what Cale had to say first.
He waited for Cale�s next words with a serious mindset. Cale soon continued to speak.

�I did manage to trick him.�

�Hmm?�

��What do you mean?�

Alberu was so confused he might have had question marks written all over his face.

�No, your highness. To be more accurate, I didn�t trick him.�

Cale still could not believe it.

�That White Star bastard tricked himself.�
�Hmm?�
�I didn�t do anything.�
