Perseus's Aftermath

Chapter 875

While Alexander drowning in self reflection and worrying himself over the potential repercussions of the result of this battle, you would think Perseus would be out and about celebrating this great win.

By now the city of Lilybee should have been buzzing with noises of loud celebrations and grand feasts, with good food and great wine flowing as the men cheered their hard won victory and toasted to the beginning of the grand reconquest of their country from the hands of the evil conqueror- Alexander.

But contrary to such an expectation, the city of Lilybee was actually unusually quiet, with little color in the air.

Instead, it was like a mist of melancholy had clouded over it.

For Perseus was in a gloomy mood despite the win.

It had been too costly.
