Confrontation

Orcus glared at Anaemia, who clicked her tongue and looked away with her arms folded.

Orcus then turned his attention back towards Solomon and said, "I hope you can forgive her bold choice of words, General Solomon. Anaemia has spent most of her life in our family residence and is not yet used to the ways of the outside world."

Solomon's expression remained unchanged as he replied, "The internal affairs of your Jestal family are not of my concern."

Orcus inwardly nodded when he heard those words leave Solomon's mouth. Although his Jestal family did not show themselves much over the years, it appeared that their prestige and name still held a great amount of sway.

"Then-" As he began to speak, Orcus was swiftly interrupted.

"However, it involves a Commander and Captain under my command—and that is my concern," Solomon emphasized.

Orcus' facial expression darkened along with the other two Jestal family members.
