Man With Super Medical Skill novel Chapter 3244

"How on earth could so many of you let Garrett escape under your noses?"

At the Martial League, Matthew, who had panda eyes, was in disbelief when he heard the crown prince's report. Even with the Stormbringer and the escort ships around, who could believe that Garrett could still escape unscathed?

Noticing the disbelief in Matthew's eyes, the crown prince scratched the back of his head. "Gadel is as slippery as an eel. He wasn't on the main ship but rather on the escort ship, hiding. We managed to recover all of his ships, yet he had already been ejected from the bay. Rest assured, he won't pose much of a threat without Garrett around."

Shaking his head, Matthew rose to his full height. Then, at the sight of the crown prince's anxious look, he guided the man back to the seat. "Shawn, I need a break. Please handle the matters here for me."

At that, the crown prince turned his gaze to the towering stack of paperwork on the desk, feeling a mix of frustration and resignation. He could handle them, but he disliked it.

Noticing Matthew's fatigue, the crown prince then reluctantly sorted the files, trying to comprehend what the Martial League needed. Meanwhile, Matthew went to lie on a bench on the other side of the room.

He rested on a thin blanket that was spread over the bench, too tired to even move it. Lately, the responsibilities of matters including the Martial League had overwhelmed him and drained him. The recent upheaval involving Montiria, Garrett, and the financial tycoons had also left him worried about resources.

Looks like handling the Martial League is making me so swamped that I don't have time for myself. It doesn't help that Sasha has returned to Montiria, a place where I'm banned, thanks to Gloam Division ruining my reputation with their interference.

Matthew's exhaustion led him to slowly close his eyes, leading the crown prince to lower his voice.

…

The afternoon gave way to the evening, with the sunset spilling through the window, causing a soft glow on Matthew's cheeks.

Waking up from a peculiar dream, he opened his eyes as his eyelashes fluttered.
