Fortunately, the Crimson Valley d1b9f626da appeared before Abel collapsed 2125205490 from exhaustion. The path between 218f0738f1 the cliffs was 5c4bfb2676 so narrow that 7e44eb1871 you could only 2ef2c900e7 see the path 5001c243da clearly when you f7db05a6e6 got closer. At first glance, cd69eefe19 the path seemed 3e47e2cd3f to continue straight 2bad4926f6 as a narrow 4732378ddf line, with the ba0c712684 entrance on the b0395af307 other side clearly b312cbbbe3 visible.a53230c75bc4022d
However, even if it wasn’t the distinctive terrain of the valley, seeing enemy soldiers entrenched across the valley made it clear that this was the destination. Conveniently, there was even a guide at the entrance of the valley. As soon as he saw Karas, he shouted and ran through the narrow passage.b75920589b313b3f

“Ah, he’s here!”17d90420ce89cf04
Abel followed Karas, panting, and was startled and stepped back at the sound of the enemy’s voice. And then he looked up at Karas and was surprised again. The position of the Commander-in-Chief is really high. Seeing that both the enemies they first encountered on the open field and the enemies across the valley all knew Karas.a3f48857a464b6d0

Lies would always come to light. Because everyone has something more precious than their deception. Their own life. Karas had not yet seen anyone who would risk their life and would still lie. So, he naturally believed that it would work this time too. He didn’t think that someone would continue to lie when they were told to walk towards an obvious danger.0ea172275eb69be7
Now, his face would show hesitation. His eyes would shake, his face would stiffen, and his confusion would be revealed. He would pretend not to know Karas’ true identity, and he might even kneel down and beg for his life, saying that all the words about the emperor were lies. No, he might even faint from the shock and fall to the ground.6b2dcf51bfb8f6dd

The way he spoke and acted were similar to the Regas who had approached Karas before.
