Chapter 582 Let’s make a bet

This vice general\'s name was General Killock, he was one of the trusted generals under the fourth prince.

He had been serving the fourth prince for over ten years now, so there was no need to doubt his loyalty. But there was a single time where he had been disloyal to the fourth prince.

It was something that even the fourth prince hadn\'t been aware of, but it could be considered a blemish on his otherwise perfect record.

As for why he would do this, it was to save his men.

They had completed the mission in the end, but it had resulted in other consequences that the fourth prince had to deal with later. But the fourth prince just thought that these consequences were because of something else and not because of General Killock.

So this was a secret that he had been preparing to take to the grave.

But now, this Count Zwein who had relied on his relations to become the general had just revealed that he knew everything to his face.

The way that Count Zwein recounted this, it was clear that he knew even the minute details and not just the general event.

General Killock didn\'t know how he knew this, all he cared about was the fact that he seemed to know everything. There was no doubt that if this was revealed, his reputation would be ruined and he would lose everything.

If it was anyone else, General Killock might have already done all that he could to silence that person forever.

But General Killock couldn\'t do that to this Count Zwein.

After all, the situation already told him that Count Zwein was close to the fourth prince, so if he did anything, it would be him that suffered.

However, General Killock couldn\'t just leave this problem be…

General Killock took a deep breath and said, "Alright, let\'s talk alone then."

I gave a nod before turning to everyone else in the room and saying, "Can you please leave this room for a bit while I have a private conversation with my vice general? We\'ll call you back once we\'re done."

The officers didn\'t move when they heard this as they all looked at General Killock.

The way that they looked at him, it was as if they were asking for his permission.

In the end, it was only when General Killock gave a nod that they all vacated this room.

As they were leaving the room, they all looked at me with a strange look as if they couldn\'t figure out what to make of me.

They had never seen their general act like this in all the years of fighting with him.

It seemed like there was more to me than met the eye.

I just looked back at them with a smile on my face as they left which unnerved them even more.

Once everyone had left the room, General Killock looked at me with narrowed eyes, but he didn\'t say anything.

It was as if he was trying to put pressure on me so that he would be able to control the conversation. However, I had met plenty of people with strong auras before, so I wasn\'t fazed by just this.

When he saw that he couldn\'t freak me out, General Killock gave a sigh and said, "What do you want?"

The fact that he said this already meant that he had admitted his defeat.

He had thought about many different ways to solve this problem, but there wasn\'t a single one that worked. After all, he knew just too little about this Count Zwein that he didn\'t know what he was capable of.

As long as he didn\'t know this, it would be too risky to clash with him.

So he took the safer path and directly negotiated with him.

I gave a nod of acknowledgement for this before saying, "It\'s very simple, I just want to make a bet with you."

"A bet?" General Killock couldn\'t help repeating in a confused voice before asking, "What kind of bet?"

I revealed another smile before saying, "It\'s a very simple bet. I just want you to follow my orders completely for a single battle. If it succeeds, then I want you to follow me properly from now on. If it fails, I will personally talk to the fourth prince and leave this army."

General Killock revealed a very strange look when he heard this.

After a moment of silence, he said with a serious look, "Even if you have grabbed me by the handle, do you really think that I will risk the lives of my men just for a bet? I refuse."

I wasn\'t angry when I heard this, rather I had a look of admiration after he said this.

This was a sign of a good general.

He didn\'t care what happened to him as long as he was able to protect his men.

But I wouldn\'t accept this.

So I just calmly said, "It\'s not risking the lives of your men. I just want youto follow my instructions on how to fight the enemy. I will consult you on all of the strategies and you can decide when we can retreat. I just want you to support me in this following battle without any hesitation."

This time, General Killock couldn\'t help wavering.

He didn\'t know what it was about the way that Count Zwein said this, but he couldn\'t help being moved a bit by these words.

After a moment of silence, General Killock said, "Why are you doing all of this?"

The smile disappeared from my face at this as I looked right into his eyes and said, "I just want to protect the people that I care about."

General Killock revealed a slightly surprised look, but he gave a nod in the end as he said, "Alright, just this one time."

I said with a nod, "Thank you for understanding."

General Killock just shook his head and said with a sigh, "I hope I don\'t regret this."
