Ethan couldn't help but be surprised that Cain's loyalty and opinion suddenly shot up to a hundred.
But he didn't dwell on it.
From the determination he saw in the young man's eyes, he knew it was only a matter of time before he tried to enlist in the guard.
Turning to Alaric, Ethan ordered coldly. "Prepare the guard; we'll be leaving in thirty minutes."
He was angry, and what better way to relieve his rage than by killing a bunch of damned Green Skins and a traitor.
"As you wish." Alaric's lips curved into a smile.
He seemed just as excited as Ethan for that mission.
After all, for both men, they were about to eliminate an annoying ant.
"Ethan…" As the guard marched out to the barracks and began to prepare, Ethan felt a gentle tug on his sleeve.
When he turned his face, he saw Alice, clearly shaken.
"Is everything really okay?" she asked, her eyes trembling. "I can feel the murderous intent in Alaric's eyes."
