Before Zeta could take any action, an unexpected video call came from the Empire.
On the screen, Cassian, looking sharp in an elegant prince's outfit, bowed slightly with a sincere expression. "I've heard about the rumors. I apologize for the negative impact on Admiral Thaddeus. The Empire has already reprimanded the Dragon clan and asked them to issue a public apology. We hope this can help repair the harm caused to Admiral Thaddeus and his family. I apologize on behalf of the Empire."
Cassian then gave a formal Empire salute.
his heartfelt apology left Zeta and Matis a bit taken aback. They both wondered, 'What's the Empire's angle here? Is it because of the Alliance's control over the Arix Crystal?'
Whatever the reason, Zeta and Matis decided to respect the gesture from the Crown Prince of the Empire.
