It was rare for the four wardens to appear in the state capital at the same time. The four of them soon entered the conference room respectively.
At this time, Kaden said first, "Tell me, what nonsense are you old farts up to this time?"
Philix spoke first, "What else could it be? This old man from the Eastern Territory has never liked me. Isn't it obvious that he is trying to take revenge on me?"
Caspian replied, "Don't say that. This is all public opinion. I didn't say anything. Anyway, I'd like to ask, where you went this time, North Warden? Why did you suddenly disappear and reappear? Did you sneak off to another country to leak the country’s confidential information..."
Philix yelled in fury, "Nothing good could come from a scoundrel’s mouth! I'd never betray Drakonia even if I die! Unlike you! You've slandered me and my son. What are you trying to do?!"
"Oh? Slander? May I ask how I slandered you? You should calm down. Being angry all the time isn't good for your health. I wouldn’t be surprised, though. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. ”
“You!"
“That’s enough,” Kaden interrupted the quarrel between the two. He said, “Please tell us where you went during this period, General Philix."
Philix closed his eyes and tried to recall. Suddenly, he felt a splitting headache. He covered his head and fell to the ground.
"Dad! Dad!" Nash hurried forward to check on him.
Philix regained consciousness after Nash gave him an emergency dry needling aid. He opened his eyes, gathered himself for a while, and then shook his head.
"I… I don't remember anything..."
Obviously, Philix’s statement was hardly convincing at all. This made Caspian even more eager to pursue the matter.
“You don't remember anything? I'm afraid we can't guarantee whether this person in front of us is the real Northern Warden or not.”
