"Sir Claude is absent today, Commander."
"I'm aware," I said coldly as Colette, Benedict, and I were on our way to the borders.
"Isn't he going to leave soon?" Benedict asked.
I was silent from what he said. It didn't matter for me to answer that. Everyone knew that Claude was about to leave his current position and he has to serve the Grand Alpha King by the orders of the Alpha King himself.
"Is the Alpha King already here in the palace?" I suddenly turned at Benedict the moment that question has spouted from my mouth.
Benedict glared at me and shook his head. "You know the higher-ups don't just make an announcement even from us with a higher position, Rachelle. Only the fleet admirals know about it. They haven't notified us yet. But if they do, I will inform you immediately."
"That's strange." I am starting to get suspicious of what we are doing. "Can't we even know what our Alpha King look like? Just what if he already arrived here in the palace?"
