The Medallion novel Chapter 136

Afterwards, Rocky strode into the camp. Once inside, he saw that it was very simple. Actually, there was nothing appealing to him except a few red-painted tables and chairs.

Meanwhile, Marin was sitting behind a wide red-painted table in the middle of the camp, watching carefully a copy of the battlefield report just handed in by her subordinates. When she saw Rocky come in, she immediately put down the battlefield report. She examined Rocky from head to feet and then motioned to him. "Please take a seat."

Upon hearing what Marin said, Rocky tried to avoid some of the hypocrisy and politeness. After nodding his head, he sat aside and asked, "Commander, is there anything I can do for you today?"

"I checked your background and found out that you were exiled from the Imperial City for penal servitude, but I didn't find any detailed information about you. Besides, I also heard that it was some royal spirit manipulators who sent you here." Marin's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. She was trying to probe Rocky with her stares. As soon as she came back, she sent someone to investigate Rocky's origin and history, and she immediately found something unusual about him.

When Rocky was sent here, his identity was completely kept a secret. Only the royal spirit manipulators who sent him had revealed their identities. They said something about Rocky's exile but did not say anything else about Rocky's identity. So, of course, she couldn't find out the detailed information about Rocky. He was like a person who had no past. It was no wonder that Marin felt strange and curious about this, and she immediately called Rocky here to question him.

"Yes, that's right. Is there a problem about my identity?" Rocky said with a frown, his eyes turning defensive. He didn't expect Marin to be quite smart and quick-witted. It surprised him that she began to doubt his identity in such a short period of time.

"What do you think?" Marin asked as she glared at Rocky with her sharp and beautiful eyes. Her smile faded gradually. It was obviously illogical for a seemingly weak spirit manipulator to be personally sent to exile by the royal spirit manipulators. She knew there was something more to it than what they were letting on. She had to figure out the true reasons.

If Rocky was sent to exile because he had committed some major crimes, of course there was no problem with that. It was a normal thing and a common occurrence. However, what kind of crime had he committed? It was unbelievable that he should have to be escorted to exile by several royal spirit manipulators. That itself was already an obvious sign that his exile had important reasons. Besides, Rocky had been giving off a mysterious aura in him. He was completely closed off. This question greatly aroused Marin's curiosity. Her intuition told her that there must be some unspeakable secrets in it.

"Commander, I'm surprised to see that you are so concerned about me. It makes me wonder if you have any interest in me." All of a sudden, Rocky asked with a slightly ambiguous tone. A smile appeared on the corners of his mouth and his eyes shifted from being defensive to flirty.
