�Father.�

Fredo flinched after hearing Cale call him father.
His eyes could see Cale�s twisted smile on his innocent childhood appearance.

�Father, you become king in return, but there�s nothing I gain from it. Nothing in my hand.�

Fredo let out a short groan.
As Cale said, there was nothing Cale Henituse would gain from this.

Fame, power, wealth, none of it.

�I thought he wasn�t the type to seek those things?�

Fredo wondered if he had heard wrong about Cale. On the other hand, he had a different thought as well.

��It would be weird if he had no greed at all.�

He heard a cold voice as he had that thought.

�In addition, the situation has changed.�

Cale returned to his usual tone as he continued to speak.

The situation had changed.

�How will you handle this without me now?�

His help was now necessary.

�Mm.�

Solena let out a groan.
Fredo quietly observed Cale for a bit before starting to speak.

�Yes. Now we need you.�

Cale�s value to Fredo had gone up more now.
Cale nonchalantly commented as Fredo accepted this.

�Raise it some more.�

Offer some more things to put on the scale.
Balance the weights on the scale.

That was what Cale�s gaze was saying and Fredo accepted it.

�Sure. I will think about what to add to my side of the scale.� JrNovels.com
