"Your Majesty."
Chen Cheng wiped the mud from his face, then gave Kui Niu a deep bow.
"I'm sorry. I hurt all of you just now."
Chen Cheng knew very well how deeply his actions had hurt those who cared about him, like Kui Niu. The greater wound had not come from his fists, but from how he had trampled upon the hearts that cared for him.
Kui Niu had not accompanied Chen Cheng for as long as She Li had, but even in their brief contact, he had felt true equality and respect from Chen Cheng.
Chen Cheng had given him the position of commander right from the start, and when he saw the Orc race outside, he had immediately been willing to take them into the fortress.
There might have been considerations of benefit involved, but Chen Cheng's ability to break through ingrained hostility was like a ray of light illuminating Kui Niu's heart as a member of the Orc race.
So when Chen Cheng lost his mind, Kui Niu suffered. When he saw Chen Cheng recover, he was delighted.
Just as a bitterly emotional scene was about to unfold between ruler and subject, Song Dragon's sudden interruption shattered the atmosphere.
"Do you know what you just went through? Don't you feel anything else?"
Hearing Song Dragon's question, Kui Niu and She Li both shot her hostile looks.
"Please do not question His Majesty in that tone."
Song Dragon merely snorted coldly.
"You two fools, don't speak if you don't understand."
This was the first time Song Dragon had insulted anyone, and after hearing it, Kui Niu and She Li truly felt like beating her up.
Because Song Dragon's contemptuous gaze and tone seemed to be saying that the two of them were stupid and ignorant.
