Chapter 456: Nothing at all

In the still silence, Thales silently watched the dazed and helpless guard on the ground who no longer had anywhere to belong to.

He watched these men who were in despair and were about to fall apart.

A myriad of thoughts surged in his mind.

"Why?"

Barney Jr. knelt on the floor limply. He was stiff and in a daze.

"Father?"

He looked at Nalgi dully, but his gaze made him seem as if he was staring at a stranger.

"Why?

"Why did he do this to me?"

Besides Nalgi, almost everyone looked away. Only Beldin and Naer were equally horrified.

"Do you really not know?"

Nalgi asked rhetorically. His cold voice was sarcastic.

"So you lived like a child in Renaissance Palace, not knowing anything, and not caring about anything? Did you really just want to be a loyal and stupid chess piece?"

No one uttered a word.
