Bab 596: You dare!?

"Herms Lizander has broken the Peace Treaty."

Alcimus glanced at Herms and spoke.

Herms's expression changed. He quickly turned his head towards Astaria to see her reaction and noticed that woman had narrowed her eyes in doubt,

"What do you mean?"

Astaria questioned.

"In the recent war between the Solid Earth Kingdom and the Woods Dynasty, Herms broke the treaty as he actively took part in it."

"Tha-"

Herms was about to answer, however, before he could, Astaria questioned back,

"What the hell are you talking about? My people themselves took part in the war. Do you think anyone would have survived if an Emperor made a move himself?"

Hearing this question, Herms's expression changed again.

'Weren't those two allies? Why is she going after him?'

He then turned towards Alcimus to see his reaction, however, seeing him not reacting much, he realized that it might be true.

The Woods and the Skyfall are not allies.

A ray of hope rose up in Herms's eyes.
