Chapter 130. Old Friends and New

Oscar POV

The warriors and I sit feasting in the mess hall in the Oceana castle, not long after our most recent battle. I’ve been making new friends here. Every one of these warriors is dedicated to protecting our kingdom, and it’s an honor to be one of them.

I’m not one to be a picky eater, but the food provided to the warriors here is some of the best I’ve ever had, with Mother’s home-cooked meals being at the top of that list, of course.

“I just want to get out there again and kick Assanan’s ass,” a man beside me boasts. “But I’ll keep my distance from our Alpha King. His prowess in battle is terrifying. I fear he’ll turn it on me if I make a wrong move.”

“Aye, we’re best fighting on the outer line,” a female warrior agrees, and this sparks a larger discussion among those at my table.
