บท 608: Alexander's Scheme

Alexander found Cambyses's question and the looks being sent his way to be quite funny, one which caused him to chuckle.

And when that caused Cambyses to glare and pout, Alexander in a breezy tone asked, "And how do you suggest I punish them?"

"Fine them? Remove them from their posts? Or even capture and execute them to appease the city?

Alexander of course added the last option as a joke.

"....." And facing Alexander's hypothetical question, Cambyses did not immediately answer but turned to face him.

"Acheveiments should be rewarded, and failures punished. I thought it was you who taught me that," She icily commented.

Cambyses felt it made no sense for Alexander to simply wave all the mistakes made away.
