Chapitre 416: A new guard

The fourth prince brought me back to the dwarven residence and then dropped me off in front of it.

After we had come to an agreement, there wasn't much else that we had talked about, so we had spent much of the ride back in silence.

The fourth prince seemed to be thinking something as he looked out the window.

As for me, I was trying to figure out just what the fourth prince had wanted.

No matter how I thought about it, it didn't seem like the fourth prince would make a deal where he would suffer a loss like this.

This deal not only required him to protect me from the other princes, he would also not get a slice of the trade with the dwarves and the elves. He told me to give all of that to the king for the kingdom, so none of that would go to him since it would all be arranged by the king.

Why would he do that?

But I just couldn't figure it out by looking at the fourth prince.
