Once Scar opened the door, the conversation between Zieg and another old man stopped. Curious about the newcomers, Zieg and the currently nameless old man glanced toward the door.
"Hehe, if it isn't the young man Scar," the old man said beside General Zieg.
Despite his status as a General, Zieg stood beside the man in a respectful manner, ensuring not to overstep any boundaries.
Kieran noticed this small detail, but he also noticed something else—staring into the old man's eyes was like gazing into the depths of a great ocean. He couldn't gauge this man's strength, but a looming sense of danger persisted.
'Anyone foolish enough to believe this facade before their eyes would suffer a deserving death. This man's body may seem feeble, but I sense differently. I wouldn't be surprised if this old man dressed in luxurious robes were a wild beast on the battlefield.'
