"Never underestimate the Northlanders' courage."
This was what Putray said to Thales six years ago after they narrowly escaped death. At the time, the prince had firmly agreed.
But at this moment, as he stared at King Chapman who sat in the carriage, as immovable as a rock, Thales realized with horror that he still did not understand the weight of those words.
King Chapman coldly stared at Thales, his gaze a surveying one... just like when they first met six years ago.
In the past six years, Thales had imagined this hundreds of times: The terrifying king would stand on the highest point of Black Sand City, his deep, chilling gaze would stare in the direction of Dragon Clouds City, and his unhurried voice would issue dangerous commands against the Prince of Constellation. Even if Thales did rack his brains and exhaust his mind, he would not had been able to imagine that they would meet again in such a way after six years.
