Chương 601: Sly duke

It would be fine if he didn't say anything, but the moment that he did…

It was like he was rubbing it in, which made us even angrier.

But this made it clear what he was planning on doing.

He was giving us these ten thousand 'troops', even though it was clear that this was a ragtag army that he had gathered in haste.

So technically, he wasn't disobeying his orders, he was just using a loophole to get out of sending any of his actual troops.

I could sense the rage coming from General Killock and the officers behind me after Duke Yuletide said this. In fact, the rage that was coming from behind me didn't just come from General Killock and the officers, I could feel it coming from Shaka and Cecilia too.

They were people that had sacrificed their lives to protect the kingdom that they lived in and the people that they loved.

Seeing Duke Yuletide spit on it like this by giving them these pretend soldiers, it was like a slap to the face.
