Jack sighed again. His body felt heavy. He knew he had limited time and should leave now, but he didn't feel like getting up from the throne. He had known from the start, that being the sovereign of this kingdom was not a fun task, but he didn't expect the moral burden to be this heavy.
He looked at John who didn't show any expression. The guy didn't flinch making a plan that could cause the death of innocent civilians. He wasn't sure if that was good or bad. He was just glad that this guy was on his side.
"What?" John asked when he detected Jack's glance.
"I'm sorry. I know your plan is for the benefit of this kingdom. I just can't be comfortable about being a king who let his people die even if it is to stop further bloodshed in the future."
