At that moment, everyone turned to Master Magaera.
Master Magaera observed the letter carefully and said, "Your Majesty, something's wrong with this paper. I'd like to ask General Grunt where he got this paper?
As he spoke, he turned to look at General Grunt with depth in his eyes.
'Something's wrong with the paper?' Everyone at the Imperial Sky Palace exclaimed and the officials started murmuring among themselves.
"What could be wrong with the paper?"
"Could it be poisonous?"
"Shh, don't talk nonsense."
The discussion continued and General Grunt felt rather nervous. The truth was the letter was delivered by Darryl and General Grunt stole it.
General Grunt quickly calmed down and snickered at Master Magaera. "Your Excellency, the fiend race armies were defeated. What's the use of discussing this?"
He felt lucky. 'Master Magaera must have been unhappy that I'm now on equal footing as him, so he made up the story about this letter. But, I've checked the letter several times and there's nothing wrong with it. So, I don't need to be afraid.'
"Master Magaera chuckled at General Grunt's question, "Of course, there's a reason. Where did you get this paper?"
General Grunt was stunned and said, "It's just a paper that I use for official matters. What's wrong?"
"Is it?" Immediately, Master Magaera shook his head. "If that's the case, you're guilty of lying and don't deserve the credit, even more so of being a Grand Marshal."
General Grunt turned red in the face and said, "Master Magaera, what are you trying to say?"
'D*mn it. Is Master Magaera out of his mind and trying to find something wrong with me?' he thought.
