Chapter 92

For a moment I think he is talking about getting the city back from the ghouls, but as the shadow of a frown appears on Asher's face as he closes his hands hard below the table, I can tell it is not as simple a matter as I thought at first.

"…Imperial Majesty intents to start a new war?"

"New war? Please, Captain Murray, when did the last one ended?

Just because there is no bloody battlefield filled with armies does not mean we are not at war…"

"And yet Your Imperial Majesty intends to use a captain from the enemies army against them. It is not a light matter, to betray a country, especially the Citadel, they do not take this kind of thing lightly. Also… how could you trust a traitor with such an important matter?" Asher says, prompting for the truth behind the boy's words.
