The night ended quickly, and as the sun rose above the horizon, it signaled the arrival of a new day.

At Betrico Central Mansions, Arthur usually woke up early due to his involvement in state affairs. However, today he woke up much earlier than usual.

As soon as Arthur was awake, Mateo, his assistant, couldn’t sleep in either and found himself yawning beside him.

After yawning, Mateo glanced at Arthur and said, “Sir, why are you up so early today? The meeting doesn’t start for another three hours. You could have slept another one or two hours.

“Is something wrong? Can’t sleep? Maybe you should try lying down again.”

Arthur waved his hand dismissively, “No, it’s no use. I won’t be able to sleep even if I go back to bed.

Mateo, having been Arthur’s assistant for many years, of course knew the reason behind his early wakefulness. Just as he was about to say something, Arthur spoke up, “Bring me the file from yesterday and let me take another look.”

“Sure!” Mateo quickly responded.

A few seconds later, a yellow leather file folder appeared in front of Arthur. Without looking at the cover, Arthur opened it and pulled out several sheets of paper. He held them carefully and examined them closely.

These were Claire’s personal details. As Arthur looked at Claire’s passport photo on the file, the name “Claire” escaped his lips.

Fragmented memories from over a decade ago in Astamia flashed through his mind.

He furrowed his brow slightly and asked Mateo, “If I remember correctly, when I was on duty in Astamia fifteen years ago, I was shot just below the heart, right?”

Mateo nodded vigorously in response to Arthur’s question, “That’s right. Fortunately, it was just below the heart. If it had been a direct hit to the heart, the person sitting here now might have been Tristan.”

Arthur frowned and said, “So, what was the situation when you found me? I don’t really remember.”

Mateo sighed and said, “Sir, you have no idea. I found you in a nearly collapsed house on the Astamia battlefield.
