Chapter 388: I’m The Crazy One In This Kingdom (1)
A small banquet was prepared for Keter, who had returned after ten years and resolved the crisis in the south. Holding a banquet in the middle of a war made no sense, but Keter’s return and accomplishments were so great that no one voiced any complaints.However, the banquet could not even begin.
“Lord Hissop! The main force of the world alliance army has been utterly defeated!”
Everyone was shocked by the urgent report brought by Navakin.
The main force of the world alliance army was composed of the strongest army in the past hundred years. On top of that, their enemy, Demon King Rukan, used an extreme surprise tactic of pulling back his main forces. If the main force was withdrawn, Rukan was practically alone. And yet, the main force of the world alliance army had not just lost—they had been crushed.
The mood of reunion and relief vanished instantly. Only fear and tension filled the hall.
“What difference does it make just standing around like that?”
Keter didn’t care. As he ate the prepared food, he offered drinks to those frozen in place.
“You know, when people are hungry, they become idiots. So let’s fill our stomachs first.”
If anyone else had said it, they would’ve been scolded for being insensitive, but because it was Keter, not a single person objected, and they all began eating. Still, everyone ate in silence, creating an oddly tense atmosphere. Just as Navakin was about to sneak a bite of his favorite pickled shrimp and apple...
Keter snatched the shrimp mid-air and said, “You should be giving the briefing, mister.”
“Ah, yes... ahem.”
