<h4>Chapter 395 Are you an enemy?</h4>


    I couldn''t help being taken aback and revealing a confused look when I heard this.


    My y?


    What did he mean by that?


    I didn''t have a y here, I was just trying to find a way toy low while getting the things that I wanted.


    So I really couldn''t understand just what he meant by this.


    The king saw that I didn''t respond at all, so he gave a sigh and said, "Do you know why I''ve agreed to all of your terms?"


    I was even more surprised when I heard this, but I slowly shook my head.


    The king calmly looked at me and said, "It''s because I can''t see through you at all."


    There was only confusion on my face as I asked, "What do you mean by that?"


    The king took a deep breath and said without answering my question, "Normally, I feel like I have a good judge of character. I feel that I''m able to see through people without much trouble. That is how I''m able to maintain my rule and keep the peace of the kingdom."


    The way that he said this, it almost seemed like he was bragging about himself.


    But I knew that it wouldn''t just be that.


    After a long pause, he narrowed his eyes to look at me as he said, "But you''re one that I can''t see through at all. As such, I consider you dangerous."


    My chin dropped the moment I heard this as I looked at the king in shock.


    It opened and closed a few more times as I didn''t know what to say in this situation.


    After all, a single wrong word would mean being in danger.


    If I said the wrong thing and was considered dangerous, that would be bad for me.


    No, it wouldn''t just be bad, it would be considered disastrous.


    After all, the other side was the king of this kingdom.


    Having the king as an enemy was the worst thing that could happen.


    If that happened, I would have no choice but to leave this kingdom and find a new ce for me and my people.


    If that was the case, it really was a good thing that I had made preparations in the Dwarven Kingdom.


    But that was the worst case scenario.


    After all, being chased out was not a good thing.


    So after taking a moment to catch my thoughts, I looked at him and said, "I don''t think that I present any danger at all."


    The king gave a chuckle when he heard this before saying, "Why do you think that?"


    Instead of answering, I responded with a question, "Why do you think that I present danger?"


    The king gave another chuckle before narrowing his eyes in a cold manner and saying, "One, how about the fact that you''ve hidden your abilities like this?"


    I gave a shrug and said, "I''ve never tried to hide anything. I just never had a chance to show off. You should know that I was a ve before, right?"


    The king narrowed his eyes even more when he heard this.


    He was the king, so how could he not know such a simple fact?


    It would take him no time at all to dig up something like this.


    It had also been included in the packet on Zwein that had been presented to him when he joined Shadow Garden.


    So he did know about this.


    Only, he didn''t understand why he would bring this up now.


    Seeing the look on his face, I continued by saying, "As a ve, I never had a chance to use my abilities. If it wasn''t for the fact that Rose saved me, then I would have been a ve even now."


    This time, it wasn''t just the king who narrowed his eyes to look at me.


    Scar and Shaka also had strange looks on their faces as they looked at me.


    It was clear that they never expected me to bring this up.


    After a moment of silence, the king said, "Are you an enemy of our kingdom or are you an ally? Do you have any ill intentions towards us?"


    It was a very simple question, but the meaning behind it was very heavy.


    But the way that he asked it…was so casual…


    After a moment of being surprised, I calmly said, "I have no ill intentions towards this kingdom. It is where the people that I care about live and the ce that I call home."


    The king narrowed his eyes to look at me, but I didn''t flinch under this gaze.


    I looked right back at him and met his gaze as he looked at me.


    After a long silence, the king suddenly gave a nod and said, "Alright, I''ll trust you then."


    He suddenly stood up and said, "We''ll keep the terms as agreed upon."


    Without even waiting for an answer, he turned around and started heading to the door.


    I couldn''t help letting out a secret sigh of relief when I heard this.


    At the very least, I had weathered the storm for now.


    What the future held was uncertain, but I was safe for now and I took that as a victory.


    But I wasn''t able to remain rxed for long.


    "What are you doing? Are you noting?"


    I suddenly heard thating from the door and looked to see the king looking back at us.


    He waved his hand and said, "Let''s go."


    Then he turned to leave without looking back.


    We just looked at each other with confused looks before standing up to follow the king out.


    As we walked through the halls of the castle, we recognized the way that we were going.


    It seemed like we were heading back to the throne room.


    But why were we heading back there?


    All of the ministers had already left, so there was no reason for us to go back there.


    Or at least that was what I thought.


    When we arrived, I found that there were still many ministers who were waiting in the throne room.
