"I am sorry for my men's wrong doings today."
Demetrios remained silent.
Of course, his silence is not a sudden show of bravery, it is merely because he does not know what exactly to say.
Curse and blame Giovanni Giustiniani for his treasonous act? But there are still a bunch of armed men standing in the room with their blades by their waists watching over his actions, any wrong word or move can result in him getting decapitated. Or how about giving the commander another few words of appeasement? For what? These men just led an entire army into the palace, breaking open his home and forcing him to submit.
Amidst the silence, Giovanni spoke looking down at his sovereign.
"You shall be safe with us, your majesty. But just please, do corporate with us, we are merely doing a peaceful protest. It will be best if no one gets hurt, and please tell your guards to lay down their arms too."
