However, Raon was faster.

�Bud, Bud! They said Bud�s f*cking head is gone!�
��Huh?�

�What is gone?�

Cale felt his mind whiting out.
Raon shoved the video communication device toward him at that moment.

� It�s been a while. Young master-nim.

Ron calmly smiled at him.

� He hasn�t lost his head yet.

�He said he will lose it soon!�
� That is the case.

Ron faintly smiled as he continued to speak.

� It looks like Bud has become a hostage. We were told to come before they blow Bud�s head away.

Cale recalled the conversation he had with Bud before coming here.

�Hahahaha! Just trust me, trust me! The Molden Kingdom? I�ll find out everything about it! Just wait! Muhahahahaha!�

Bud who was happy to return to the Mercenaries Guild for the first time in a long while had shouted that to him while drinking bottles of alcohol.
Ron continued to speak.

� According to Bud�s close friend, Glenn Poeff, he was captured while being rash.

Cale let out a sigh.

��By who?�
� By the Molden Kingdom�s dethroned princess.

�Hmm? Wait, who?�

Cale looked toward Ron. Ron responded with a benign smile on his face.

� The last princess to lose the battle for the throne against Elisneh the First. He was captured by her.

��Bud is being held hostage by the dethroned princess?�
� That is correct, young master-nim.

Ron�s benign smile didn�t register correctly in Cale�s mind.
Alberu confirmed that the underground stone chamber was not visible to Raon and Ron as they were in the middle of the staircase before starting to speak toward Cale who seemed to be deep in thought. JrNovels.com
