"Be vigilant, the banquet will continue as usual."

He stood up to leave.

"But this is also the Mindis Hall of Duke Xinghu."

"Once something happens, His Highness Thales will bear the brunt and cannot escape the blame."

Mallos slowly turned his head and looked directly at Vogel:

"My people are the ones who bear responsibility."

He spoke very slowly.

Vogel stopped moving.

The deputy captain of the guard released his arm from the table and sat down again.

"your people?"

This time, Vogel snorted coldly and his tone was no longer polite.

"Marios, I think you, and your team of young men, need to sort out your positions."

These words made both Glover and Doyle look pale.

Thales also frowned.

Young Master Team...

Mallos listened expressionlessly, while Vogel’s eyes showed no doubt:

"Even if you change locations, you are still the royal guards."

"And I am your - superior."

"It's like Mindis Hall, subordinate to Fuxing Palace."

These words made Thales shudder.

Mindis Hall is subordinate to Fuxing Palace...

Vogel’s words were chilling to the bone:

"Never, never forget this."

"Watchman."

Mallos did not respond.

Just like Taylor didn't either.

Time seemed to stand still for a few seconds.

In this square, Glover and Doyle seemed to be frozen.

Only Mallos took a deep breath, closed his eyes and then opened them again: "Of course, sir."

"Don't dare or forget."

He said respectfully.

Vogel nodded slightly, looking satisfied.

Until Mallos's next words were calm and calm, seemingly without any emotion:

"But if I remember correctly, in a state of emergency..."

"The heritage watchman of the Guard is at the same level as the Deputy Guard Captain?"

"Yes, sir?"

This time, it was Vogel's turn to change his expression.

For a second, Thales thought the temperature dropped sharply and the air stopped flowing.

A few seconds later, the deputy guard captain stared at Mallos coldly, his tone was as playful as a mosquito:

"Yes, according to the top-secret "Watching Order" in the "Covenant of the Guards", in certain 'emergency situations', the watchman can and should make independent decisions."

"And I have no right to interfere."

Thales was stunned.

The top secret "Law of Watch".

In a state of emergency.

Watchmen can and should...

Independent decision-making?

Thales' heart tightened upon hearing this.

Vogel lowered his voice and his words were cold:

"But you know, the last time the Royal Guard invoked the regulations in a state of emergency, activated this secret order, giving the watchmen great power independent of the command wing..."

"When did it happen?"

At that moment, Thales' mind went blank, and he suddenly thought of Sak'el, who was unknown where he was.

The punishment knight.

[The person who really should be charged with collaborating with the enemy, but despicably concealed the truth for eighteen years...that shameful, sad, hypocritical, disgusting, self-righteous, sanctimonious, duplicitous guy...is me.]

Thales was stunned.

Vogel's pupils focused.

He raised his glass, put it close to Mallos' ear, and lowered his voice:

"And you really thought about it..."

"Are you going to forcefully declare a state of emergency here, in front of me?"

"Activate "Law of Watch"?"

Marius confronted him silently.

Glover and Doyle did not hear Vogel's words clearly, but this did not affect their judgment of the tense relationship between their boss and the deputy guard captain at this time.

The two of them didn't dare to say anything out loud.

After an unknown amount of time, Mallos finally smiled:

"certainly……"

For a moment, Vogel's eyes became even colder.

Glover and Doyle looked earth-colored.

Until a few seconds later, the watchman lowered his head gently and chuckled as before:
Chapter completed!
