Chapter 792: Chapter 792. The trust that was shattered by his own hands

“Why isn’t this list marked with the identity of these people?”Kant asked Abel, puzzled.

“I don’t know either.”Abel shook his head and replied.

Kant seemed to have been struggling with this question. As he walked on the road, his brows were tightly knitted.

“Your Majesty, is this question very important?”Bunduk could not help but ask tentatively.

“If you want to talk about whether it’s important or not…”Kant curled his lips and said, “It makes my impression of the Dragon Clan become erratic.”

“Your Majesty, you mean that the Dragon Clan hasn’t decided to take sides?”Abel thought for a moment and asked.

Kant’s eyes lit up and he smiled gently. “You’re really smart.”

Abel was flustered by this sudden compliment. He lowered his head shyly and did not say another word.

Seeing that Kant agreed with what he said, Bunduk continued to ask, “Since the Dragon Clan does not intend to join any faction, why are they acting so proactively?”

“The Dragon Clan’s position on this island is not for nothing.”Kant narrowed his eyes, he replied, “The reason why they took the initiative was to show their status as guardians. They appeared to be aggressive when they participated in this gathering, but they secretly left a way out for both sides.”

“I see.”Abel took over Kant’s words and thought for a while before replying.

Kant looked at him with a smile and said, “You’ve helped a lot since the reconnaissance team was able to successfully complete the mission to help the Midget clan. In my impression, Devitt and Claremont didn’t react as quickly as you did.”

“Devitt and Claremont are both excellent leaders. I was only assisting them from the side.”Abel’s tone was not relaxed when he mentioned his deceased friend.

“Excellent people will always attract each other.”Kant stretched out his hand and said to Abel, “I’m looking forward to working with you on this island. We must find the leader behind the scenes and make them pay the price.”

“Yes. Of course we will do our best.”Abel bowed respectfully and used his hands to hold back Kant’s outstretched hand.

“This operation does not only require our hard work.”Kant nodded and said, “We also need Raphael’s assistance. His body does not seem to be in good condition. You should find time to visit him.”

As he spoke, he pointed to the end of the group. Raphael was being carried behind him by a soldier.

When Abel heard Raphael’s name, his body froze. He then applied to Kant, “Your Majesty, I don’t think Raphael needs to be involved in this operation. He is already a traitor. Who knows when he might run away to seek protection in the enemy’s territory.”

“I heard that you and Raphael have known each other for ten years.”Kant did not directly answer his question, instead, he replied, “You haven’t met each other after this incident, right? Go and talk to him first. Ask him if he is willing to help us.”

Abel raised his head and met Kant’s gaze. When he saw the other party’s determined gaze, he silently nodded.

The camp by the coast was still very close. In less than half an hour, a group of people walked to the door of the military barrack.

“Captain Abel! King Kant! Commander Bunduk!”The Elven soldier bowed in front of the three leaders.

“Get up,”Kant said.

When the Elven soldier straightened up, Abel asked one of his subordinates, “How’s the situation outside the camp today?”

“The orcs who were monitoring the area a few days ago have already retreated,”the subordinate soldier reported.

“Yes,”Abel nodded and replied.

“The Dragon Clan’s movements have probably spread throughout the entire coast. These people should not have the time to monitor us in the near future,”Bunduk deduced.

“Dinner is ready. Please put down your bags and follow the soldier in the camp to the dining hall,”Abel called out to the Caradia soldier behind him.

“Yes!”The soldier replied in unison.

This voice made Bunduk recall the time when he trekked in the forest. Every morning at the Assembly, the Caradia soldier would respond to his words in the same way.

His gaze unconsciously drifted to the end of the line.

“Raphael…”Abel said the name in a weak voice that could not be heard.

The atmosphere in the dining hall was not as lively as he had imagined. After all, everyone was still immersed in the sad atmosphere.

Abel looked around the dining hall and asked the subordinate who organized the soldiers to receive the meal, “Where are Lord Kant and Commander Bunduk?”

“They are still in the tent. They said that they will arrive a little later,”the soldier replied.

“Yes.”Abel continued to ask, “What about Raphael?”

“Raphael… he’s still resting in the tent. According to the soldier from Caradia, when he’s on the ship, he won’t go to the dining hall to eat. It’s always the soldier who delivers food to him,”the soldier said carefully.

“Has today’s dinner been delivered?”Abel took a deep breath and asked.

“Not yet.”The soldier took out a plate filled with dishes and looked at Abel.

“I’ll send it to him,”Abel said as he took the plate.

“Captain…”the soldier said worriedly as he handed the plate to Abel.

“Don’t worry, I Won’t attack him,”Abel said with an indifferent expression.

He turned around and walked out of the dining hall.

Raphael’s place had always been reserved for him: a small tent in the corner of the camp.

Abel stood outside the tent with a tray in his hand and asked, “Raphael, are you there?”

The person inside did not respond. Abel lifted the curtain and walked in.

Raphael, who was lying on his bed, turned his head to look at him. Tears fell from his expressionless face.

Bunduk did not know who those tears were for. He sat down in front of him with a tray in his hand and said, “I heard that you need someone to bring you dinner before you eat.”

Raphael pursed his lips and did not say a word. He stared straight at Abel’s face.

Abel met his gaze, and his eyes began to turn red. He said in a choked voice, “I really don’t understand why you would betray us. In my memory, you are not this kind of person.”

“Thank you for coming to see me,”Raphael turned his face and said.

“Aren’t you going to explain?”Abel put his hand on Raphael’s shoulder and said.

“I just want to live.”After Raphael said these words, he closed his eyes in pain.

“To live? What about Claremont and the others? “Should they bury their lives in the deep sea for you?”Bunduk roared. “Do you know that I still don’t dare to tell the newly promoted Gilbert… “The news of Austin’s death. “Because I’m afraid that he will pounce on me and question me. Your actions have caused so many people to suffer for it!”
