Andrei could not believe what he was seeing.

“Y, you were supposed to be in a coma-”

He could not even finish his sentence.

‘Why is Duke Fredo here?!’

He had heard from young master Naru that Duke Fredo's condition was so serious that nobody other than the healers could approach him.

But how was he seeing a completely fine Duke Fredo in front of him right now?

“You were in a coma!”

Andrei’s tone did not show any respect for the Duke.

That was how shocked he was right now.

This was true for all of Squad 1. None of them could speak properly due to their shock.

Fredo started to smile.

“Mm, that’s right. I was in a coma and woke up not too long ago.”

“What total nonsense!”

‘How was he here if he woke up not too long ago?!’

Andrei looked toward Fredo in disbelief.

He then made eye contact with Fredo. Fredo's gaze made him subconsciously shut up while Fredo started to speak in a calm voice.

“Yes, it makes no sense. But you have to believe it because I am telling you that that is the case.”

The Duke’s face turned cold.

Now that his lazy and bored expression was gone, all that was left was an emotionless and cold face.

“Andrei, it would be best if you accept the situation without thinking nor saying anything.”

Gulp.

Andrei subconsciously gulped.

He wanted to step away, but that was not easy because he was bound.

He quickly looked at Duke Fredo, who was walking toward him, as well as his surroundings.

He finally started to understand what was going on.

He was a sword master.

That was not a level that could be reached through training alone.

He had been involved in numerous battles, large and small alike, and could come up with a conclusion in his head.

“…Duke, did you decide to cooperate with Cale Henituse?”

The answer was obvious as soon as the Tigers had appeared in front of Andrei.

The story about how the Tiger tribe lived close to the Forest of Darkness and served Cale was a famous story.

“Hehe.”

Andrei started to laugh.

“No wonder. I knew that there was no way that this kind of plan would come from that old Count Mock's head.”

He recalled when he decided to follow Count Mock for this plan.

‘I plan on using Naru Von Ejellan. That is why there are no benefits to stick on Duke Fredo's side for this operation.’

‘What do you mean by that, sir?’

‘Naru Von Ejellan is my informant. He’s perfect to use.’

He gazed past Naru and focused on Duke Fredo.

“You used your son to plot all of this.”

Andrei's shoulders started to move up and down.

The shock and disbelief were making him laugh.

“Kahaha, hahaha-”

However, his laughter could not continue.

“Ugh!”

His neck was instantly clenched by a Vampire.

“Sorry, things might get complicated if you let out any loud noises.”

He could see Solena who was smiling while clenching his neck. Duke Fredo's trusted subordinate. She was clenching Andrei's life away.

"Solena, let him go.”

“Yes, Duke-nim.”

Solena instantly let go of her hand that was clenching Andrei’s’ neck.

Boom-! Boom-!

Andrei's body that was bound by the rope tilted to the side and fell to the ground.

“Ugh!”

Andrei who fell sideways could see a pair of shoes walking past his face.

He raised his head to see young master Naru looking down at him.

However, Naru then looked away from him and walked forward.

“Y, you bastards-!”

Andrei subconsciously started to speak.

Actually, he was shouting.

"What do you plan to do with us?!”

He looked around as he shouted.

Cale Henituse.

If Duke Fredo cooperated with him, then he should be somewhere nearby.

He could see a pair of shoes stopping in front of him.
