The Guardian's Sword

The next moment, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and Sean and Zander strode
in.

"Sean, what are you doing here? How did you get here?" Lisha asked in surprise.
She could not imagine Sean coming to their main camp when they were
confronting each other. After all, this tent was the Crosac army's commander-in-
chief's tent!

However, Sean and Zander arrived without alerting anyone. If they had come to
assassinate Claremento, Claremento would already be dead!

Claremento quickly grabbed Lisha's hand, pulled her a step back, and looked
warily at Sean and Zander.

"Have you come to kill me?" Claremento asked coldly.

"If I had come to kill you, you would already be dead... Claremento, you know
what I'm capable of, so why do this?" Sean said flatly and went up to
Claremento.

Zander said nothing and walked behind Sean with a serious expression.

"Then why did you suddenly come to my tent? Do you want to talk to me?"
Claremento said with a sneer.

Sean shook his head and said, "I want to talk to you, but now is not the time for
small talk... No more beating around the bush... Claremento, I've heard your
conversation with your daughter, Lisha. You're very opinionated, and your
decisions are wise. At least as the head of the city, there's no problem. But I must
tell you that your fears are unwarranted.”

"What do you mean?" Claremento asked.

"It's simple. Dragon Kingdom formed the united forces to defeat Silver City, take
over Silver City's secret warehouse, and gain hundreds of tons of gold. How
could they not send such a huge profit back to the country but give it to the three
cities, Dorodo, Dorandue, and Bittan?"

"So Dragon Kingdom is the one getting this gold in the end. It's Dragon Kingdom
and not a Dragon Kingdom city in the City-State Union. So you don't have to
worry about the City-State Union's power balance being destroyed or Dorodo,
Dorandue, and Bittan growing into enemies that Crosac can't handle.”

Sean's sincere and earnest words made Claremento frown deeply.

He had not thought of it before, but Sean had reminded him of the main point.
Yeah, Dragon Kingdom has acquired hundreds of tons of gold at such a huge
cost.

How could it not ship it back to the country but give it to Dorodo and the other two
Dragon Kingdom cities?

After all, they're in the City-State Union and not Dragon Kingdom.

"Dorodo will never make an enemy of Crosac unless Crosac takes the initiative to
attack Dorodo. Besides, Dorodo won't develop as fast as Crosac, which already
has a huge advantage that Dorodo can't catch up with. After all, Dorodo and
Crosac are developing. There's no way Crosac will wait for Dorodo to catch up..."
Sean continued saying.

Claremento laughed a few times before saying, "Even so, forget about making
me retreat! I'm already here!"

"How could I not do anything, listen to you, and go home with the soldiers? If so,
what about my reputation? What about Crosac's reputation?"

Lisha was already happy at first, but her expression was now full of worry after
hearing her father's words.

Sean suddenly broke into a burst of mysterious laughter.

"Why are you laughing?" Claremento fumed.
