Chapter280-Demanding a Fief

Knight Kaido was consumed by a mix of anger and annoyance.

Flandre, adorned in a delicate, faintly scented yellow dress, approached him and inquired, "Kaido, what troubles you? You seem displeased."

Kaido, already seething with irritation towards Howard, now found Flandre at his side.

A sinister glint flashed in his eyes, the urge to lash out physically to vent his frustration almost overwhelming him.

At this critical moment, one of Kaido's robust henchmen quickly grasped his wrist and advised, "My lord, it is time for your horse riding practice." 

Simultaneously, the sturdy man signaled Flandre with his eyes, urging her to leave swiftly.

Flandre, noticing the menacing intent in Kaido's gaze moments before, and realizing there was no one else around, deduced the true target of Kaido's suppressed rage.

She wanted to speak, to express her thoughts, but the words lodged in her throat, unspoken.
