Returning to the Main Camp

"Everyone's been talking about you, Fredrinn. You really did great this time and I heard that you even captured the enemy's corps commander alive." Fern remarked in admiration. 

With a limited number of troops, Fredrinn exceeded everyone's expectations. Fern no longer treated him as someone in the younger generation. He treated him like a peer, someone who had equal status to him. 

Facing his undisguised flattery, Fredrinn remained humble. It was obvious that Fern wanted to befriend him. He was already acquainted with Aubrey so he didn't mind strengthening his relationship with the Silversword Household. Who knows? Maybe this connection would be useful in the future.

After exchanging some pleasantries, they finally went to the most important matter. 

"You don't need to worry about the situation here, Fredrinn. I will deal with the rest. You can ease your mind and head back to the main camp." Fern chuckled.
