It was Scar who welcomed me with a smile on his face, one that was anything but kind.

It was clear that he was angry with me, but he wasn't able to show that in front of the dwarves.

They were here as ambassadors officially, so offending them was the last thing that he could do.

So he asked to see me in private and I followed him since I was still technically his subordinate.

We went to my study once more and when we sat down…

"What were you thinking?"

Those were the first words out of his mouth, but I had already expected this.

I just revealed a bitter smile before saying with a shrug, "I didn't plan on this either. It just happened."

"It just happened?" He repeated with twitching lips.

Then all of a sudden, Scar slapped the table and said, "How could something like this just happen? Do you really think that it's that easy to do something like this? Do you know how long we've been trying to build a relationship with the dwarves only to be rejected by them?"

I didn't say a thing since I knew that all of these questions were rhetorical.

There was no need for me to say anything since…

"It's been hundreds of years since anyone has been able to make contact with the dwarves like this and you're telling me that it just 'happened'?" He said while pointing a finger in my face.

I gave a shrug without saying anything.

Seeing the look on my face, Scar gave a sigh and shook his head while saying, "He really lacks all common sense. It was my mistake expecting anything out of this crazy kid, if only I had taken this seriously and sent more people to watch him…"

I couldn't help resenting this and said in an aggrieved voice, "It wasn't as if I could do anything. If the Dwarven King wants something, it isn't as if I could say no."

Scar raised a brow as if he doubted me, so he turned to look at Shaka.

Shaka gave a nod to confirm that this was indeed the case.

Shaka had been following me the entire time, so he knew everything that happened.

Scar turned back to look at me with a strange look.

He looked at me like this for a while before suddenly asking, "How did you learn all those things that you showed the dwarves?"

As he said this, there was a trace of suspicion that appeared in his eyes.

It was as if he was saying, "If you already knew all of this, why didn't you give it to us first?"

I just calmly looked back at him, this time without any fear at all as I said, "This is my secret. I don't think I need to tell you anything about this."

Scar narrowed his eyes when he looked at me, but then he said with a sigh, "Indeed, you don't need to tell me where you learned these things, that is what we agreed on in the past. But, there's one thing that I do need to ask…"

His eyes turned sharp as he said, "What are your intentions towards our kingdom?"

This was the bottom line.

He wanted to believe in him because of all the things that he had done before, but the secrets that he kept were just too suspicious.

So if he didn't ask this, he wouldn't be doing his job properly.

I had already been expecting this since I even knew that I had too many secrets that it seemed suspicious.

But I still calmly said, "I have no ill intentions towards the kingdom. My home is here."

There was a tense moment of silence between us as Scar just looked right into my eyes.

With the way that he looked at me, it was almost as if he was trying to see right into my soul.

But in the end, he said with a sigh, "I hope that this is the case."

I also let out a secret sigh of relief at the fact that I had been able to convince him.

If I wasn't able to convince him, this would have become much harder…

After another silence, Scar said, "Did you think that you would be able to get out of a scolding like this though?"

A bitter smile crept onto my face when I heard this.

Scar narrowed his eyes to look at me as that bitter smile on my face became wider.

He just kept scolding me about how I lacked common sense and how I didn't know how to hold back at all.

He told me that I should at least try to stay low profile and that I had a habit of causing trouble wherever I went.

I would have refuted this, but it seemed like this was the case when I thought about it.

After all, every time I had gone to travel, I had caused a big incident.

This trip to the Dwarven Kingdom wasn't any different.

When he was done with his scolding, I raised my hands in surrender and said, "I got it, I got it. I promise that I'll be careful next time."

"Next time?" He repeated before suddenly putting his head in his hand and giving a long sigh.

"There's going to be a next time?" He said in an exhausted voice before saying, "Of course there's going to be a next time with this kid…he doesn't have any self awareness at all…"

I resented this and I made myself clear as I said, "I don't think that's true. I don't want to cause trouble at all, it just happens."

"It just happens he says…" He once again repeated in an exhausted voice.

After another long silence, Scar's tone changed as he said, "Let's get down to business then."
