Chapter 73: More Like Emotionless

"Are you saying that it was wrong of me to not suspect you?"

Captain Lynas promptly lowered his gaze again when he heard the Commander's calm question. "I have no right to think that way, Commander. I only asked you out of curiosity." Pausing, he thought twice before he cautiously said, "When it comes to the Fourth Prince, I think I know much more than Vicus does. But you did not suspect me even once."

He waited for a moment but when he was met with silence, he added, "I know how careful you are when it comes to trusting someone, Commander. That's why I'm still dazed by your trust in me."

Eloria kept her silence as she thought of what to say. Then she finally responded by saying, "You are one of the very few people whose loyalty I can be sure of. And even among the list, I dare to say that you are at the top."
