Chapter 547 Turning the Tables

“Your Majesty, this is far too risky! If the traitors play us for fools and hand you over to Filren, the consequences could be unimaginable!” Logan argued

vehemently.

“Worrying too much about potential dangers will only waste our time. If you can’t devise a plan, at least don’t stand in my way!” Balthazar responded, feeling irritated.

He had little patience for indecision, especially in matters of battle where hesitation could lead to defeat.

“Your Majesty, I have a plan that could repel the enemy forces,” Logan proposed confidently.

“What is it, Commander? Speak up.” Balthazar encouraged.

“We could have the traitors take me to the Filren’s forces, pretending to defect. As a commander of Tenby Passage, the sight of me captured would surely convince them of the passage’s fall. This way, it’ll raise no suspicion,” Logan explained his daring strategy.

“Aren’t you afraid these traitors might turn against you, putting yourself in grave danger in return?” Balthazar asked, surprised by Logan’s boldness.

“If Your Majesty is not afraid, why should I, your subordinate, hesitate to sacrifice myself? You are right. Dwelling on what might go wrong only delays our victory,” Logan stated with unwavering resolve.

“But you are wounded. It’s not wise to risk yourself further.” Balthazar observed, noting Logan’s blood-soaked armor.

He was unwilling to let him take more risks.

“I am fine, Your Majesty. Now is the time for me to serve our country. Please grant me this honor,” Logan implored.

“Very well! Commander Massey, your willingness to infiltrate enemy ranks moves me. You shall be duly rewarded once we repel the enemy,” Balthazar promised.

“Your Majesty, it is my duty to serve our nation. Defending Tenby Passage is my responsibility,” Logan humbly replied.

“Commander, your bravery in the face of the enemy and your efforts in the battle against Quinton have already earned you great merit. As you prepare to venture
