Chapter 625 The fourth prince again
Once that meeting with the duke was over, we left Vayne City.
For now, that foolish duke and his men served a purpose, so we would leave them be.
The next time that we come back here, it would be to orchestrate the fall of this duke.
But there really wasn't a destination for us to go since there was nothing urgent for us to handle.
Or rather, there was nothing really urgent where there was something that I could exploit. If I were to randomly go onto a battlefield, there was no chance of victory for me since I had to admit that I was inferior to every other general that was out there.
I just didn't have a good mind for strategy, especially when it was in the real world.
I might be able to do it if I could see everything on a screen and control them with a few clicks, but in the real world?
That just wasn't possible for me.
So for now, I decided that we should head back to my territory for some rest.
To my surprise, I found that General Killock didn't resist this at all.
I had thought that he would be the biggest opposition to this, but it turned out that he was perfectly fine with this.
I really couldn't help feeling a bit suspicious when I saw him acting this way, but I didn't think too much about it.
As for the ten thousand troops that we had received from the duke, we took five thousand of them with us.
I had made Shadow Five and her group check them to make sure that these five thousand were actual refugees. Since they were actual refugees, it didn't matter if they came with our army since it would be a better life than wandering around, looking for a place to stay.
If they were with our army, then they would at least receive proper pay and pensions for their families, so they were actually happy to join us.
"Does he want me to go to another battlefield? Is that why he's here?"
If he really did want me to go to another battlefield, that would be bad since I had no other places to exploit right now...
Even if I wanted to go, all that would happen is that I would be defeated.
But to my surprise, the fourth prince actually said, "After all of that, you deserve a rest. You should take some time to rest up in your territory before heading out to the battlefield again."
I couldn't help looking at the fourth prince with one brow raised in surprise.
The last thing that I expected was for him to actually give me a break.
In fact, I just couldn't believe that he would be here to give me a break.
The fourth prince was a busy person, would he run here just to tell me to rest?
There must be something off for him to do this...
So I narrowed my eyes to look at the fourth prince and asked, "Is that really all that you have to say? Are you sure that there's nothing else?"
The fourth prince actually jolted when he heard this before revealing a smile to say, "What else could there be? Brother Zwein, you shouldn't doubt your brother like this."
I shook my head and said with a sigh, "It's too bad that I do doubt you. If you have something that you need, you should just tell me."
The smile on the fourth prince's face twitched a bit before he said with a sigh, "Truth be told, there is something that I want your help with. It isn't related to the war, but there's a situation in the kingdom that needs to be dealt with."
As expected, there was some kind of trouble.
It was always like this.
The fourth prince continued by saying, "It's a situation that involves wyverns."
