Capítulo 79: A Desperate Gamble

After failing to negotiate his passing through the Pyrenees. Hagen and his Frankish warriors returned to Constantine's ranks. It was not a long journey, but enough time had passed that Marcellus was made aware of the Franks' attempt to desert. Currently, Hagen stood before the self-proclaimed emperor, who had a smug smile on his face. The moment the usurper saw the Franks return to his army, he desired nothing more to gloat, which is what he was doing now. 

"Oh? Back so soon? And here I thought that you and your army would be in Gaul by now? What happened? Did you suddenly realize where your loyalties should lie?"

Hagen was instantly displeased by the shit-eating grin on Constantine's face, and immediately informed him of what he had come to learn.
