159 Chapter 159 – Backdoor access

Year 5, Spring, First Month, Fourth Week.

“Lady Mage… We need to return soon… The second section can’t stay without a Captain any longer…”

The Captain refused to say that his men were starting to suffer from poisoning, as was he. He couldn’t bear to be looked down on as a weakling by the egocentric Mages. Although he also used his noble birth as a ladder to step on the common-born, he hated Mages. In his opinion, they received everything undeservingly, without needing to fight for it.

Even trying to feint politeness, the Captain forgot with who he was speaking. As a sound Commander and a member of the Chorus, the leading Mage could clearly grasp the disgust and disrespect hidden in his voice. Fortunately, the Mage only decided to give him a strong and long-lasting headache later instead of making him deaf.
