"Bastards!!!"

*Crash*

*Clank*

The King screamed in anger and frustration and threw a Jar made of glass on the ground, breaking it into pieces.

In front of him kneeled a man wearing black colored clothes and beside him stood a man wearing the same, black colored clothes.

"Keeve, what happened? Why have all your subordinates become so useless? Have I become too lenient? Is that the case?"

Ricardus, who was trying his best to hold back his anger, questioned.

"That is not it, your Majesty."

Keeve declined.

"Then what is it? What happened? Have you started recruiting useless pieces of shit into my Shadow Unit, by any chance?"

The King questioned again, glaring at the man kneeling in front of him with unconcealed anger.

"No, that is not it either, your Majesty."

"THEN WHAT IS IT!?"

*Crash*

*Clank*

The King threw away another Jar and roared.

"Your Majesty."

Unlike his subordinate, Keeve was intimidated by Ricardus's actions and replied calmly.

"You have to understand, we are talking about Consort Amaya. You know it better than anyone else what type of woman she is."

The King glanced at Keeve and Keeve continued.

"Yesterday, she came here to inform you about how she was going to sneak out of Palace. Notice the words she used, Your Majesty. 'Sneak'.

She wouldn't say those words if she wasn't sure of herself.

You have to understand, it is not his fault and neither has the Shadow Unit become 'useless'. It is just that the opponents that we are facing are too strong or smart this time."

"So are you saying that you are too weak to handle your enemies?"

The King stepped towards Keeve and questioned while his purple eyes shined in ruthlessness.

"No, what I am saying is that our enemies have become too unpredictable. However, it does not mean that we can't take care of them. We just need a bit more time.

And Your Majesty, I dare say, we, the Shadow Unit are the only ones who can actually go against these enemies. You know that as well.
