Chương 549: Career

'So soon?' Khan couldn't help but wonder at that revelation. The political team was barely one week old, but the Thilku had already sent a formal invitation.

"Is something the matter, Captain?" Ambassador Abores questioned, even if nothing had appeared on Khan's face.

"It sounds hasty, sir," Khan admitted. "Did the Thilku predict a joint investigation?"

"Worrying about that isn't part of your duties," Ambassador Abores scolded, "Especially with the incoming [Hunt]. Can you tell me why?"

'Is he testing me?' Khan wondered but still proceeded with a simple reply. "The Thilku Empire features all kinds of environments. Predicting which one they will choose is virtually impossible."

Khan didn't need to add the most important detail in that conversation since his role was clear. As a scout, Khan would have to prepare for every possible environment. He would be too swamped with reports to think about the Thilku's intentions.
