The domineering president fell in love with the horrified me

"Captain Walpole!" he said to the hero, his eyes gleaming with respect and admiration.

"This is our mission and responsibility as soldiers!" Captain Walpole replied firmly, his tone full of determination and courage.

"No! I have to talk to those Anxie people and see if I can get the price down! How dare these guys so shamelessly amass war wealth? It's outrageous!" Steele said as he turned around stubbornly and prepared to leave.

However, Captain Walpole did not try to stop Steele, but just silently stared at the sky above Lord Borth's territory, as if looking for some answer.

......

"Why don't you go and save those people in distress? It is said that you successfully scared away that black man today, and the whole city of Erdo is praising your heroic deeds!" Debbie asked curiously, her eyes full of confusion and expectation.

"It's nothing but an empty title!" Long Batian responded calmly, with his hands behind his back and facing the flying snowflakes outside the window.

"Don't interfere with the fate of others, and don't disrupt the natural flow of time!" Long Batian expressed his point of view in a profound and mysterious way.

"Please explain it in plain language!" Debbie requested anxiously.

"I really can't do anything!" Long Batian shook his head helplessly. He had tried to deduce everything that happened in this small world, but found that he couldn't change them at all. Even if he tried to change them by force, it would only make the situation more chaotic and worse in the end.

At this moment, in the only pharmacy in Erdo City, a disheveled figure was driven out by a group of strong men holding wooden sticks.

"You have no money and yet you want us to lower the price of medicine? You are simply robbers!" The lights in the pharmacy were bright and there were bursts of abuse.

"We paid a huge price to defend the city of Erdo. Don't we even have the right to buy those life-saving herbs?" Steele asked angrily, his face full of dissatisfaction and disappointment.

"It's none of my business!" A fat man walked out of the house with a mocking smile on his face, "If the city falls, you won't be much better off!"

"Chief of Staff Steele, since you are also a noble of Erdo City, why don't you learn from Lord Bosi and be a little smarter and run away with your property as soon as possible!" the fat man laughed.

"I just want to buy some anti-diarrhea medicine!" At this time, a man in a windbreaker walked in and went straight to the medicine cabinet.

"You need to pay one thousand gold coins here!" Roberts quoted without hesitation.

"Isn't this too outrageous?" the man complained angrily.

"Buy it or not? This is the only place that sells medicine in the whole city of Erdo!" Roberts responded nonchalantly.

"Here you go!" The man threw out a bag of gold coins, and Roberts immediately caught it with a smile on his face. He then counted them one by one, and put each one to his ear to listen to the sound. After confirming that it was correct, he signaled his men to hand him the herbs.

When the man in the windbreaker passed by Steele, their eyes met in mid-air, and then the man quickly shifted his gaze and left quietly.

When the man in the windbreaker disappeared into the night, Roberts bowed respectfully and watched him walk away.

"Welcome again!" Roberts greeted Steele with a smile, with an intriguing light in his eyes.

"You will be punished!" Steele stood up, patted the snow off his body, left after saying some harsh words.

Roberts couldn't help but laugh at Steele's unintimidating threat.

"Chief of Staff Steele, be realistic! You are still too young! Goodbye! If you want the herbs needed for treatment, you have to pay with gold coins!" Roberts shouted at Steele's back.
