Bella froze for a moment.
Then, she nodded and said, ”To be honest, I was indeed wondering about this… Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t the eldest daughter be notified first when the seniors want to issue documents?”
There was obviously resentment in Bella’s voice, and Captain Viktor quickly answered.
“At this point, I don’t think it matters if I tell you the truth… Do you know why I immediately accepted the entrusted task of the Rothschilds? Think about it. I feel it’s worth it even if Deputy Captain Yves died in the process.”
Captain Viktor’s words made Bella start to brainstorm. She had already begun to wonder what was so valuable.
Captain Viktor only waited for a moment before answering.
“It’s the identity of our entire mercenary group! I don’t want to be just the captain of a mercenary group anymore, I want something more, do you understand? And you and the Rothschilds are the best opportunity for this!”
Captain Viktor told Bella that he desperately hoped to use the Rothschilds to help make him official.
Although he owned the Sky Wolves Mercenaries, was considered a top power in Qari, and no one dared to mess with him, these were not enough, and Viktor was not satisfied.
The desires of the human heart could not be satisfied.
Back then, Captain Viktor also thought that he had reached his peak. However, later he discovered that despite this, outsiders would not call him Captain Viktor. At most, they would call him the leader of the robbers.
Only then did Viktor realize how big the gap in status was between the two of them.
Moses had been working on changing his identity and was ready to abandon everything for this mission until he received the entrusted task of the Rothschilds.
