In an instant, the ordinary man knew exactly what Emperor Dominar was talking about.
Since the empress was involved with the mission that took the attention of the entire empire—the flow of progress was monitored extensively. Even though the settlement of the White Mask was important, it doesn't outweigh the empress' safety.
No harm befell the empress, but the progress of the mission took an unexpected turn.
Vinarkin Bubble, the emperor's home bubble, was breached.
"Say the word, Your Majesty," the ordinary man said with fierce determination. "I'll take care of it."
As long as the emperor issued the command, he would certainly handle it.
But that wasn't what Emperor Dominar wanted.
"I am only venting—Kaine. Being an emperor for too long…" He sighed deeply, watching the bubble heal before his very eyes. "Most of the people I can talk freely to are already gone. Now—the only one I have who could resemble a pleasant talk is you, War General."
