Chapter 356: Departure From The Kingdom [Pt 2]

"His Highness, the Prince is here. So of course, he will be the one to lead the Expedition!" Damien Lawcroft declared with enthusiasm.

Bradford looked at me for confirmation, most likely finding it hard to believe that someone as pathetic as Fabian would be taking the lead.

However, I gave him a slight sigh and shrugged.

After this, though, I winked at the sharp man.

"Hoho! I see!" He caught my signal and laughed.

"My mistake, then. Let's get along then, Fabian. You too, Damien!"

Both the prince and his assistant looked extremely pissed off, but any more display of their dissatisfaction would simply sully their honor and non-existent authority.

So, they grudgingly accepted the enthusiasm of our newest member.

Bradford went on to greet Ivan—who looked to be in awe of the man.

His brother, Maro, was also a Researcher and Magic Engineer, so he must have mentioned Bradford to him quite a few times.

After greeting the sheepish Ivan, Bradford went on to speak to Maria.
