Chapter 278 She Was A Soldier
- Something about him felt off that day.
- As all eyes turned toward him, Edward cleared his throat. “Well,” he began, “in my opinion, the Sky Dragon is fundamentally different in character from the Dubhe Mercenaries. Everyone knows the Dubhe Mercenaries operate strictly on a contractual basis, whether it's assassination, arson, or other criminal acts. The attack on Polaris Academy two years ago, for example, was their doing. In contrast, Sky Dragon, while frequently active, seems to target bandits and terrorist organizations. So far, their actions suggest they’re more aligned with a group that upholds justice rather than one driven by malicious intent. Compared to the Dubhe Mercenaries, the Sky Dragon appears to be a much more... amicable organization.”
- Edward carried a heavy sorrow deep within, one he could never articulate. Secrets, by their very nature, were burdens meant to stay locked away—a silent torment.
