"My identity must remain a secret—not only for my sake but for yours as well. If the demons suspect you knew of the Dragon Lords' interference in this war and failed to act... Well, even a Duke's standing is not invincible."
Vordana narrowed his eyes, he was well aware of the consequences if he were to reveal it. Simon had explicitly told him that he was not the only one who had been placed to monitor the war by the dragon lords.
There were many others, perhaps there were even some high ranking demons in the demon lord's army who might have been monitoring the situation for the dragon lords. If he carelessly leaked the information, it would spell disaster for himself.
"Then why me? Why did you disclose this to me?" Vordanaz questioned.
'It seemed easier to deceive you rather than the others'… there was no way Simon could say that. He racked his brain and continued spouting his bullshit.
