Aldrian nodded. He more or less already expected something like this when he was brought here by Kuartin.
"Lead the way, Sir Kuartin," Aldrian said.
After they left the tent, Aldrian accidentally heard chatter from nearby troops.
"Hey, where is Frank? I don't see him. Wasn't he just near us a moment ago?"
"No idea. He was there earlier, but he was gone the moment I looked in that direction momentarily. Maybe he walked somewhere? I don't know, maybe to take a pee?"
Aldrian, who heard it, did not show any reaction and just kept walking away.
'I'm sorry, but your friend is already dead. The one you saw was the devil,' he thought.
As they walked, Kuartin spoke to Aldrian.
"The one Sir Aldrian will meet is the highest commander of this battlefield, a cultivator from the royal family, and one of the two strongest generals of the royal family, General Zordan Rugerman."
Aldrian nodded.
