Silence followed the statement made by the King as the other person, who most probably was an extremely old man, was pondering over what his son had just uttered.
King Zander had been independent since he was a young child and did not approach his parents unless he had no other means to solve the issue at hand.
Therefore, when the father heard the subtle request being made, his ears perked up.
{What could have gotten you stumped?}
The father mocked his know-it-all son who never bothered to ask for help in the past.
Not wasting time in arguing with his father whose sarcasm was quite evident in his tone, King Zander decided to get right to the point.
He soon repeated everything he had heard from his men and also what he had known to his father who was no longer impatient but was quite interested to hear more about this incident.
