Surprisingly, Drogath suddenly revealed a smile when he saw this.
He said with a chuckle, "So you're still concerned with her?"
The Dwarven King's lips twitched when he heard this and the look in his eyes changed. It was almost as if he wanted to punch Drogath in the face when he heard this, but he was able to hold himself back in the end.
Drogath could see this, but he ignored it and looked at me still before saying, "Why? Why are you so concerned about her?"
The Dwarven King finally couldn't take it anymore when he heard this.
"You son of a…" Before he could finish, I had already gone forward to grab him.
Though if he really wanted to, he could have thrown me as well.
He was the Dwarven King, the muscles that he had as a dwarf and the muscles that he had been building through a lifetime of forging wasn't weak. It definitely made him much stronger than me who only started exercising recently.
I wouldn't be able to hold him back by normal means…
So that meant that he was allowing himself to be held back.
Even if he wanted to punch Drogath, there was still the history between them and their positions.
If he as the Dwarven King were to punch the leader of the anti human faction like this, there was no doubt that it would start a war.
So he allowed himself to be held by me.
Drogath didn't seem bothered at all when he saw the Dwarven King acting this way.
Instead, he gave a sigh and asked, "Is she well?"
Both the Dwarven King and I were caught off guard when we heard this.
He suddenly stopped 'struggling' and I stopped 'holding' him back.
The two of us looked at Drogath with strange looks, as if we were trying to figure out if he was being serious or not.
But all he did was look at the piece of paper as he gave another sigh.
The Dwarven King's face filled with anger after he saw this and he roared out, "What do you care! It's not as if you feel anything towards her!"
Drogath didn't respond right away, but he slowly gave a nod and said with a smile, "You're right about that."
Once again, the Dwarven King went as if he was going to punch him and once again, I had to 'restrain' the Dwarven King.
But as I looked at Drogath, I couldn't help feeling that there was something different about him.
It was as if there was a bit of regret in his eyes…but what did he regret?
There was a long silence as we just stood there waiting for him to sign the piece of paper.
He did sign it in the end and held it out for me to take instead of the Dwarven King.
He looked at me with a strange look before saying, "Tell her to take care of herself for me."
I knitted my brows once more after hearing this.
The way that he said this, it almost seemed like he still cared about her…but if he did, then why would he act the way that he did before?
Then after taking a few steps, Drogath suddenly turned back and said in a voice filled with rage, "I'll remember what you did to me today. You'll see, I'll have my revenge."
All this did was make me even more confused.
One second, he was acting a certain way and the next, he was acting like a petty villain.
Did he have a split personality or was there something wrong with his brain?
He really couldn't keep a consistent personality?
There had to be something wrong with him.
But when I thought about it, it didn't seem like it was related to me.
The only reason that I had gotten involved in the first place was because of the anti human faction. Now that they had lost their leader, I was certain that this anti human faction would also go underground.
They wouldn't dare cause any trouble now that their leader was like this.
So that should mean that the anti human faction was taken care of.
As for what happened to Drogath after this…that was none of my concern.
As Drogath walked away, the Dwarven King kept looking at his back with a complicated expression.
They were childhood friends and even if he was angry with what Drogath had done recently, there was no denying the relationship between them.
I didn't say anything as I just silently watched over the Dwarven King.
Even after Drogath had left, the Dwarven King just stood there staring forward in a daze.
After a long silence, he finally said with a sigh, "I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me."
I didn't say anything as I just calmly waited for him to move.
After another silence, he turned to me and said, "Come, let's head back to the castle. I'm sure that Elsa's waiting for the news."
I just gave a simple nod before following him.
When the judges saw us leave, they immediately came forward to surround us.
They hadn't even learned what they had wanted to learn yet.
They had been patiently waiting for me to finish my business with Drogath, but now that it was over, they wouldn't let me leave that quickly.
That was unless I gave them what they wanted.
The Dwarven King revealed an annoyed look when he saw this, but he knew that he needed to do something to take care of them or else they would keep bugging him.
So the Dwarven King said, "I'll send an invitation to all of you later and hold a conference so that you can discuss the terms of this. For now, Zwein and I have other things to do."
The judges looked like they had more to say, but the Dwarven King suppressed them with a single glare.
In the end, they had no choice but to follow his suggestion since it was already better than nothing.
