Chapter 160: Normal Livelihood In Khan

Grantt: [——Shit!]

Jai: [Master...!]

Ashira: [Calm down. We should have expected this to happen.]

After being permitted to pass the army and travel to Khan, Grantt and his company stopped at the plateau past the army settlement near the river.

Grantt had kicked the otherwise sturdy rubber tire of the carriage, expressing his frustration.

Nolan: [...I'm sorry. It was the only way that I could get him to allow the idea.]

Nolan was with them, standing beside Grantt whilst looking at the settlement from the elevated topography they were at.

Maximilian: [Sigh... You don't have to apologize. It was my idea and I had to at least risk it, but I never thought that...]

After wiping his face, Maximilian tried to regain his composure after Grantt released the tension that built up in their body.

He would look at Nolan while he spoke, but at the very end, he trailed off to avoid speaking ill of the prince as Nolan was still there.
