"Your Highness!"
Do Honjun and his troops saluted Emperor Chongmei.
The emperor might be powerless now, but he was still highly respected within the country. He was the head of the country, and everyone must salute him whenever they see him, be it the military generals or members of the cabinet.
Emperor Chongmei was also surprised to see Do Honjun. "General Honjun, why are you here?"
Do Honjun was the royal family's favorite, hence he was very close with the court.
"Your Highness, I heard that the culprit who injured His Royal Highness Prince Seimei is here, so I'm here to arrest him. May I know who's the one?"
Emperor Chongmei and the royal guests landed their gaze on Nathan.
Do Honjun then only noticed Nathan standing there and realized in horror that the man lying in his own pool of blood was Master Watanabe, the Sword God of Japan himself!
"Who wounded Master Watanabe this badly!" Do Honjun exclaimed in shock.
Emperor Chongmei remained quiet and Tanaka replied in his stead, "It's this foreigner who wounded him! His name is Nathan Cross!"
Do Honjun frowned as his gaze shifted to Nathan. He somehow found him familiar, yet he couldn't recall where he had met him before.
Narrowing his eyes, Do Honjun glared at Nathan. "How daring of you! First, you injured our Prince Seimei, then you wounded Master Watanabe. That's very disrespectful of you! Men, arrest all of them now!"
Penny and the rest panicked at his orders.
"Stop!” Penny yelled.
"My husband wounded His Royal Highness
Prince Seimei and the rest because he has been creating trouble for us."
"On the other hand, my husband has reached an agreement regarding this issue with His Royal Highness and things are resolved now. You can ask His Royal Highness for confirmation if you don't believe me."
