Barbie?
When Landon heard this name, his heart sank. Sweat started raining down his forehead. His heart was in his mouth and he was wiping off his cold sweat as he said, "Yes, we do have a talent named Barbie. Did she get into any trouble? Colonel, may I ask who's your commander-in-chief?"
Landon was agitated. There were five commanders-in-chief in the whole of Biskeland. He wondered which of them did Barbie offend that a lieutenant colonel would personally come over with an army.
Barbie was always arrogant, domineering, and a diva. These were all known facts. But he could not believe that she would now offend a commander-in-chief and bring so much trouble to the company.
Landon panicked. What the lieutenant colonel said next completely crushed Landon!
The lieutenant colonel had a frosty voice, but he suddenly was filled with a strong sense of pride. With a formidable might, he said loudly, "He is the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors, also known as King Pendragon!"
With that sentence, all soldiers at the scene saluted and shouted with an imposing air, "All hail the King Pendragon!"
Landon was so frightened that he fell to the ground on both knees. His face was pale and he quivered as he said, "King Pendragon, Commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors!
"Colonel, colonel! I have no idea about this! I've always been in the capital. I've never personally met King Pendragon! So I wouldn't have dared to risk my life offending King Pendragon!"
Landon pleaded for his life on his knees. His heart was full of anxiety. He could not stop cursing Barbie as her ignorance poked the bear.
Did she know who that was? That was the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors, King Pendragon!
