Chapter: 951

� That is why last night, last night, I beheaded that traitor.

Cale finally understood why Toonka had slowed down his attack on the Empire.

�But you figured out that he was the traitor prior to yesterday, didn�t you?�

� � I found out a week ago.

�Looks like he struggled quite a bit with his decision.�

Cale realized that Toonka must have debated what to do with Hota for a while. That was why the Whipper Kingdom had slowed down their attacks.

� I thought that at least Hota, that at least the citizens agreed with my vision. I trusted him so much.

Toonka looked down at his two hands.

He had personally beheaded Hota. He thought that he needed to do it himself.

At that moment, Toonka heard Cale�s voice through the communication device.

�It must have been hard on you. Good job.�

Toonka lightly clenched his fist after hearing Cale�s words. Nobody had ever said such a thing to him before.

Cale continued to speak.

�A lot of soldiers did not end up losing their lives thanks to you.�

This was the truth.

Cale wanted to praise Toonka for not becoming weak because of his friendship with Hota.

Toonka slowly raised his head.

The two of them made eye contact through the communication device. Cale put on his usual relaxed smile on his face as he continued to speak.

�And it seems like you trusted me. Did you tell Harol to find the traitor because of what I said?�

Cale expected that Toonka would trust him and look for the traitor, but he felt kind of odd after learning that it had actually happened.

�Thanks for trusting what I said.�

Although Cale casually said that, those words hit Toonka pretty hard. At the same time, Toonka thought about the traitor, Hota�s face.

However, Cale�s continued words made Hota�s face disappear.

�But don�t trust me. I am not on your side. I am also not a good person.� JrNovels.com
