Squad Leader started to get cheeky again, had he not promised to run at the sight of a Demigod?
Miel silently watched his profile, half helplessly, half indulgently thinking.
Obviously, with the addition of Sherry, a Demigod with formidable strength, Aske had changed his original plan:
Now he planned to directly test Robert's strength.
As for those excuses, things like "if you don't want to start a war, then withdraw your troops"... How could they withdraw their troops? Were they going to disregard the dignity of a Demigod? Wasn't this clearly using words to provoke and taunt the other party into making the first move?
After hearing his reply, Robert on the opposite side surprisingly didn't get angry. Instead, he narrowed his long eyes and said:
"That's not possible. We Normans value democracy, so I can't just say to withdraw the troops and expect everyone will follow suit."
"So you're telling me you need to go back for a public vote?" asked Aske.
