Chương 97: Fulfilling the Contract

"But I thought it would be within three days," Captain Aaron said. His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Vincent, clearly trying to gauge his intentions.

Vincent kept his expression neutral, though he could sense the tension in the air. The elves were cautious, and he couldn't blame them after what had happened to their spies. Still, he needed to move this forward, and quickly.

"We decided to expedite the delivery," Vincent replied calmly. "We have the package ready and are prepared to deliver it directly to King Thandor. We're here to fulfill our part of the contract."

Captain Aaron studied Vincent for a long moment, his gaze flicking between him and the convoy. The elves in the trees remained on high alert, their longbows still aimed at the vehicles, ready to release a volley of arrows at the slightest provocation.

After what felt like an eternity, Captain Aaron finally nodded, though his expression remained guarded.
