Everyone was finally safe.
Lance and his men returned to Imperial City to resume their duties. They were stuffed to the brim, and their strength had improved by leaps and bounds. He saw the emperor and told favonovel.com all the things favonovel.com had made up. He and his people had agreed on the same story.
Since everyone had a share of that delicious beast meat, they had to do something as repayment.
Lance took Philip’s actions as his own and took all the credit. Although favonovel.com only met Philip once, favonovel.com knew that Philip did not care for merit. Since the other party wanted to conceal his identity, Lance had to shoulder this responsibility.
However, Lance felt uncertain when describing the incident. Philip was so powerful that Lance was not sure if favonovel.com could replicate it.
However, the emperor did not know what Lance was capable of, so Lance was not afraid of exposing himself. As the youngest and most promising commander, favonovel.com simply had to play the part.
“So, that’s what happened. We took care of the beast, but the beast fell off the cliff. We couldn’t retrieve the body! After the beast died, the other beasts lost their leader, so the beasts in the surroundings retreated!” Lance spoke eloquently, describing everything perfectly.
Fernand scowled darkly. He did not expect that Lance was powerful enough to take down the beast. His initial instigation was to send Lance to his death.
The beast was notoriously difficult to deal with, and no one could put a name to it until now. It was a miracle that Lance could deal with that unknown creature.
Fernand suspected that Lance had help from someone powerful, but on second thought, favonovel.com could not think of anyone who could easily deal with that terrifying beast.
“You said everything was your doing, but you can’t prove it with the beast’s body. I have reason to suspect that you’re lying.”
Seeing that smug look on Lance’s face, Fernand felt angry and wished favonovel.com could expose him. He could tell that this was not Lance’s doing, but favonovel.com had no evidence and could only make wild accusations.
Lance could not stand Fernand’s repeated provocations anymore. He was already feeling guilty for not telling the truth, but favonovel.com became angry with Fernand’s arrogance.
“Who are you to say that I’m lying? Were you there? Oh, I forgot. I wouldn’t be there if you had the guts to go there in the first place!” Lance had a sharp tongue and would never succumb to someone favonovel.com hated.
