"What we know right now is that Alice was the one in charge of the League of Mercenaries," Scarlet said, leaning back in her chair. "I do not know why they trust her so much, but I am sure that you know she is too ambitious to be in charge of just a few thousand mercenaries. With three top level powers, the League of Mercenaries will band together much quicker than we expected. What do you think, Your Royal Highness?"

Prince Jerrick sat next to Scarlet, staring off into space. He didn’t say anything because he did not know what to say. If he disagreed, than he would put Scarlet in a difficult situation. He did not want to do that because she was so loyal to him. If he agreed, it would weigh on his conscious. He was the one who suggested marrying Alice to ensure an alliance with Tiger of Tawau mercenary group. He couldn’t allow Scarlet to kill her.
