Chapter 535
Heinrich sat there, frozen, when Reinhart appeared in his tent.
The Demon King was a curse upon humanity. It was hard for Heinrich to believe that Reinhart from the Temple and the Demon King, who was hated by the world, were the same person, but it was true.
Reinhart was the Demon King. And the Demon King was behind everything that had happened.
Heinrich couldn’t help but feel confused. How could the person who had sent that letter be Reinhart, and how was it that he was standing right in front of him?
“It must feel like you’re sitting on pins and needles now,” Reinhart said abruptly, as if he knew everything that was happening.
“We’re not in a position to have a long conversation, so I’ll keep it short,” he continued. “Whether you die here or you end up killing someone, it’ll be a problem. You know that, right? Come with me instead. If you follow me, I’ll explain everything to you step by step. What’s happened so far, what will happen next, and what you can do about it.”
They weren’t in a position to have a long conversation, nor could they.
Heinrich was frozen upon seeing Reinhart, someone he never thought he’d see again.
How did he know he was going to die? Where had he been watching him from, and where did he hear about him being an illegitimate child?
Reinhart had appeared right after Heinrich confirmed for himself that he was indeed a bastard, as if he had been waiting for this moment. Just when he realized he had no place in the Allied Forces and that he would soon be assassinated, Reinhart appeared and extended a hand, asking him to leave the Allied Forces.
Heinrich never thought he’d see Reinhart again, but he had imagined confronting him.
