Yago has been living a very comfortable life lately. His daily routine consists of sunbathing, eating fruit, and sleeping in late. If he continues like this for a year or two, Yago suspects that when Annie sees him, she'll grab his face and demand, "Yago! Who did this?! How could they slap your face like this?!"

Not only Yago, but his Eldia Third Regiment also holed up in the Fortress complex of the Grayle Fortress. After driving away the Middle Easterners, they occupied the Fortress complex left behind by the Middle Easterners. However, Yago completely ignored the order from the Marley Command Headquarters to continue the attack, and only said that his troops were exhausted and unable to fight, and needed to rest.

The Marley Command Headquarters naturally scoffed at this. What did the Eldians need to rest? They should be fighting for Marley to the last drop of blood! However, in addition to the Fortress complex, the Nanbu the Grayle Fortress also had its own formidable defensive fortifications, whose firepower was in no way inferior to the other three sides. Marley had already been launching a fierce attack on the other three sides for many days, so there was no need for them to come up with another tough nut to crack.

Therefore, the Marleyan only sent Yago's Eldia Third Regiment to attack as cannon fodder to draw Middle Easterners fire.

But Yago simply couldn't be bothered with his ridiculous orders. What? The Third Regiment had Marleyan Supervisory Unit? Leaving that aside, Yago was about to burst out laughing at the mention of it.

After the battle at the Fortress complex, Yago took Selina to the Marleyan Supervisory Unit, but when Yago saw the Supervisory Unit's commander, he just laughed.

The military uniform clung tightly to his body, revealing a fat, chubby face and those familiar small eyes. When Bagg saw Yago again, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Master, why had he run into this Master again?

After being swindled out of a large amount of military supplies by Yago, Bagg's meager gains in the Logistics Unit were all gone. But there was nothing he could do; with Yago holding the bag, he had no choice but to swallow his pride and bear it.

Finally, fearing he would be tricked again, Bagg immediately used his connections to transfer himself to the front lines as a supervising officer. If he couldn't afford to offend them, he could at least avoid them. He didn't believe that the other Eldia Forces commanders were as difficult to deal with as that little bastard Loa.

Little did he expect that fate would play such a cruel trick. Bagg was initially delighted when he heard that the Eldia Forces in front of him had achieved merit, thinking he had gotten credit for nothing, so he didn't pay attention to the designation of this Eldia Forces.

Upon seeing Yago, Bagg's face contorted in shock. Yago, in turn, was equally surprised and delighted to see Bagg. He had originally intended to slack off with the Third Regiment, but unexpectedly, he'd run into an old acquaintance! Now he could finally relax completely, right?

Under the astonished gazes of the Marley Soldiers and Selina, Yago, smiling like a chrysanthemum, reached out to Bagg's neck, whose face was almost wrinkled like a bun but still managed a smile, and addressed him as a brother.

"Isn't this Brother Bagg? What a coincidence! We brothers are truly destined to meet! We should have a good chat now that we've met!"

Bagg, his face ashen, gritted his teeth and chuckled, "Yeah! Brother Loa, who's so amazing? Leading the Eldia Forces so fiercely, making the Middle Easterners run for their lives, it's all you, Brother Loa!"

Yago: "Hey! I have to thank you Bagg, for the equipment you gave me back then! I'm really grateful to you, brother."

Crunch! Bagg felt a metallic taste in his mouth; his teeth had been crushed. The extortion of supplies was bad enough, but now that it was mentioned, Bagg's anger meter was overflowing. In his rage, Bagg's eyes turned icy cold. "That bastard! You had a path to heaven, but you refused to take it! You delivered yourself right to my doorstep! Don't blame me for taking you down!"

Bagg was filled with murderous intent. Rather than letting Loa hold something over him, he would rather kill him here and then send the entire Eldia Third Regiment as cannon fodder to attack the Middle Easterners fortress. That way, no one would dare to threaten him anymore.

Selina keenly noticed the fleeting murderous intent on Bagg's face and immediately realized that the fat man had ill intentions. But before she could warn Yago, Yago and Bagg walked arm in arm into the Military Camp's logistics department.

Selina was also stopped by a group of tall, burly Marley Soldiers who forcibly led her into an ordinary tent, with two Marley Soldiers guarding the entrance.

Selina's heart sank completely; that guy Bagg was definitely up to no good!

However, Selina did not panic. She knew that Yago possessed the Titan Power of a Titan and was virtually unharmed in the undefended Marley Military Camp. Therefore, Selina was not worried about Yago's safety. What she was worried about was that if Yago revealed his Titan Power, then their Eldia Revival Army would likely be exposed as well, and the fate of the entire Restoration Army would be the biggest problem.

Selina was lost in thought, but her Dagger was already drawn and her bullets were loaded. She was just waiting to hear the furious roar of the Fate Titan before Selina would immediately kill the Marley Guards at the door and join Yago.

But Selina waited and waited, and the Titan's roar never came. It wasn't until dusk, Selina stomach growled with hunger, that she heard Yago and Bagg's loud laughter.

The Marley Guards released Selina from the tent. Selina's pupils contracted. Before her stood Yago and Bagg, their arms around each other, their mouths greasy. Bagg was even hiccuping from drinking. They were clearly well-fed and drunk.

Upon seeing Selina, Yago slapped his forehead. "Oh dear! I forgot about my men, Bagg. Let's talk again next time! Selina hasn't had dinner yet, I need to take her back quickly. Thanks for the hospitality, brother!"

Bagg's previously gloomy expression vanished, replaced by a smile brighter than a sunflower's. "What are you saying! Brother Loa, you're my good brother. From now on, treat this place like your own home. If you need anything, just let me know! It's no problem!"

"Then I'll leave that matter to you, brother."

"It's nothing! Don't worry, brother! I've got it covered!" Bagg said, patting his belly, his voice like a drumbeat.

Then Yago took Selina and left the Military Camp. As soon as they Military Camp, the enthusiasm on Yago's face vanished, replaced by a playful smile. How could he not see through Bagg's little scheme? He just hadn't expected Bagg to be so easy to deal with.

Just as Yago was feeling smug, Selina's soft voice came from behind him, "You guys are calling each other 'brother' quite enthusiastically, and you ate a good dinner too..."

Yago was startled, as if he heard a faint gurgling sound. Turning around, he was met with Selina's eyes, which were filled with almost unbearable resentment.

Bagg's adjutant walked up to Bagg and asked, puzzled, "Sir? Why are you being so polite to that guy? He's just the commander of the Eldia cannon fodder unit, what's the big deal?"

At this moment, Bagg, who had been drunk, suddenly widened his eyes and said, "You're meddling in my business, aren't you?"

"Your subordinate wouldn't dare!"

"Ha, what's with the formalities? It's all the same to me. But who in this world would turn down money? Take this, do me a favor, and the rest is yours." Bagg pulled out a large wad of banknotes and handed it to his adjutant.

With a sum of money equivalent to three years' salary placed before him, the adjutant swallowed hard, but still accepted the money, saying with trembling hands, "Don't worry, sir!"

Bagg turned and left, making a jingling sound in his pocket as he went.
