Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 278

"Commander Marin, thank you very much for coming to help us this time. If you have no more business here, I think you and your army can leave now. I am sorry that I am too busy to see you off. After all, we just went through a fierce battle and have a lot of things to settle before we can rest," Commander Sun said lightly. Inside, he was panicked as he prayed that she would cause no trouble and leave. He cupped one hand in the other before his chest in greeting to Marin. Then, he turned away immediately without waiting for any response and left with hurried steps.

Marin narrowed her eyes at Commander Sun. His actions confirmed that he had hidden something from her. She turned towards her soldiers and called out to a spirit manipulator, plans already gathering in her head. She discretely whispered her orders in his ear and watched him leave in obedience. Afterward, she ordered her own army in preparation to leave. It might be difficult to accept, but it was true that she did not have any outright reason to stay in this camp.

Marin and his men were almost out of the northeast military camp when the spirit manipulator she had sent out came back. He looked bewildered as he walked to Marin and whispered a few words to his commander.

After listening to the report of the spirit manipulator, Marin was visibly taken aback. She stared at her subordinate in surprise, as she looked for confirmation that he told her the truth.

"Are you sure what you heard was true?" Marin asked with great surprise. "How accurate are your sources?"

"Yes, I am sure. I have confirmed it already and asked a few more people who gave me the same answers. In fact, the entire northern sky military camp agrees on this. However, they are under orders to keep this a secret," the spirit manipulator answered. He exuded confidence in his answers and did not hesitate, even as his commander stared him down.

"I see," Marin bit her lip as she thought how to proceed. "I expect your full loyalty. This should be kept confidential. No one else is allowed to know of this. Are we clear?" Marin reminded the spirit manipulator.

He nodded obediently without hesitation. With a respectful bow, he left and joined his own forces.
