“How dare you claim that you are doing this for the Raksasa Tribe?” Alaric pointed at Amastan and
shouted as he trembled with rage, “You idiot! If it
weren’t for your insubordination, this would not have happened. You ignored my warning and charged
right into the enemies’ formation, putting yourself in danger. If it weren’t for that, our sister wouldn’t have
gone to your rescue and ended up held captive by Darryl Darby.”
Alaric looked around the room and continued to say in a cold tone, “I hereby announce that Amastan will
be temporarily relieved of his position as the Vanguard Commander and detained in the camp. He will
not be allowed to step foot out of this camp without my order.” Alaric was far too reckless to be left
unattended; he had to do that to prevent him from wreaking havoc and going after their sister on his
own.
“Yes, Honorable Son!” The generals replied in unison. They thought that Alaric’s decision was slightly

“What?” Amastan’s eyes turned red in disbelief as he stared at Alaric. “You are stripping me of my position?
What have I done to deserve this?”
“You still don’t get it?” Alaric rebuked, “You will answer to Father when we find him.”
“I—” Amastan wanted to refute, but he gave up and turned to leave reluctantly; he knew that nothing would
change his brother’s mind.
“The rest of you, go and get some rest.” Alaric waved his hand and gestured to the generals to take their leave.
The generals obeyed and left his tent in an orderly fashion.
After they left, Alaric turned around to face Debra and Shentel and said, “My apologies for the incident earlier.
The two of you must have been terrified. My little brother has always been reckless, doing whatever he feels like
doing. I hope that you would be kind enough to look past this; as long as I’m here, no one can harm you.”
“Okay!” Debra nodded even though she was still in shock.
Shentel, on the other hand, responded with a gentle smile, “That’s alright, we won’t hold grudges!” She studied
Alaric’s pale face and said with genuine concern, “Honorable Son, you are wounded. You should get some rest
as well.” They had spent many days with Alaric, and they believed that he had a golden heart that longed for
peace and was destined to be a wise leader.
Alaric nodded and called for soldiers to escort the women back to their tents before he laid down to rest. His
previous encounter with Darryl left him feeling as though all the veins on his chest were blasted open. He really
needed to rest to recover.
It was past midnight. As commanded by Alaric, the Raksasa Army had tightened their defenses as silence
loomed over the camp. Only dozens of soldiers patrolled back and forth quietly. Alaric meditated for a while
before he closed his eyes and prepared to rest.
Suddenly, faint footsteps approached the tent as a shadow snuck into it. It was dark, and Amastan’s expression
was cold with traces of internal conflicts. Alaric sat up immediately when he noticed the sound, and he was
stunned to see his younger brother in front of him.
“Brother? What are you doing here in my tent instead of resting in yours?” Alaric was still irritated by
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAmastan’s previous behaviors and remained affectionless in his tone.
“Eldest Brother!” Amastan opened his mouth and paused as if he was searching for the right words. He fell
to his knees and said, “I was wrong; I was reckless.” Remorse and regret filled Alaric’s expression as he
continued to say, “I reflected upon my wrongdoings and realized that ever since Father went missing, I’ve
been acting rashly. Many of our clansmen died because of my poor judgment, and today, it’s my fault that
our little sister was kidnapped. Eldest Brother, I am sorry. Please forgive me, would you?”
Alaric was relieved when his little brother realized his mistakes. He smiled and gestured for him to get up.
“Brother, there is no need for this. It is enough that you realize your wrongdoings. You don’t have to kneel
for that.” He had been quite troubled by Amastan’s recklessness, but he was pleased that his brother had
finally found his way back.
“You are destined to be the next Raksasa King, Eldest Brother; it is hardly inappropriate for me to kneel
before you,” Amastan replied sincerely, yet his eyes flashed with schemes. Alaric strode toward him and
extended his arms to help Amastan up. That was when he heard someone shout, “DIE!”
