Chapter 169: Battle

"Isaac? Why are you here?"

Queen Kaileena looked surprised at his appearance. He should have stayed in the room. She ordered her guards not to let Isaac out.

Kaies who stood next to the Queen seemed to cross her arms with skepticism written on his face.

Isaac smiled slightly. "Sorry to take you by surprise, Queen. But right now, I can't just stay in the room while you guys fight alone against the demons. After I thought about it... it's better to help you. My condition has been restored thanks to your healing magic."

The reason Isaac joined the attack was because he wasn't sure they would be able to give him much time to secure Alyna. After seeing how undisciplined the antfolk warriors were, he was skeptical that his first plan would go smoothly.

Instead of the positive answer or response he expected, Kaileena wore an astonished expression. Her brows furrowed.
