505 The First-in-Command

Hector did not know how to answer. He knew it was the Emperor who needed this information. Levi Montfort is one of Master Crow's trusted brothers in the Alliance.

"I'm sorry, Master Montfort. I have no right to answer any of your questions."

Levi tightened his jaw. He gazed at Hector with gloom. "Doctor Payne, we are talking about saving the world here. So please, tell me. I need to know who is giving out the command."

Levi acted civilly, hoping Hector would reveal what the knights were planning.

"I swear not to say anything to the empress," said Hector. 

"Dammit!" Levi cursed and slammed his hands on the desk.

He steps back from the table but paces back and forth in front of Hector. Levi tried to figure out something, putting himself as one of Hailee's knights. What would he do if he were under Hailee's command? Whom will he choose to take charge?
