Chương 355: Ten years later (10)

«This wasn't what I was aiming at,» Alexander says while we get ready for lunch. A late lunch, but it was worth the wait.

«Yes, sure,» I chuckle.

«For real!»

«Then what did you want? To have a cold bath together?»

«No, I was distracted when you looked at me with such an expression... But I actually wanted you to meet a person.»

«One of my old helpers, maybe?»

I've met some of them during my stay, so it wouldn't be such a surprise.

«Oh, I guess you can say that. There's also one of your closest assistants. But not just him.»

As I follow Alexander in one of the resting rooms on the first floor, I see an old face that is even older now. Yet, even with the grown beard to hide his wrinkles and the eyes tired from years of serving and campaigns, he has the same calm elegance.

«General!» I shout, feeling like the teenager Theodora who would ask him for advice before trying a new strategy.
