Camilla was worried that the tension between Nathan and Leigh would escalate further. If any conflict were to erupt in front of the reporters, the country's safety would be at stake.
She let out a soft chuckle. “Mr. Kauffman, your mastery of our language is truly impressive.”
Leigh glanced around for a second before answering with a smile, “You Eurasians have a saying that goes 'To win a battle is to know your enemy and yourself.' Frankly speaking, I have no interest in your culture, but I am indeed interested in finding out ways to defeat your nation.”
Camilla frowned slightly at his words.
All locals who were present threw an angry look at Leigh and his men.
What's with these Xyperians? Our country' is being a good host to them, and yet they're trying to provoke us all the time?
In the meantime, reporters from foreign nations clicked on their camera shutters in excitement.
Even if a conflict were to happen between the two countries, they were just bystanders who were curious to see what would unfold.
Seeing that he had successfully provoked the citizens of this nation, Leigh looked back at Nathan with a smirk...
Only to realize that Nathan's face was as serene as ever!
Suddenly, a reporter from Eagleland extended his microphone towards Nathan. “As Eurasia's God of War and General of the North, surely you are familiar with the military forces of Xyperia.
What are your thoughts about Mr. Kauffman's statement?”
Everyone fixed their eyes on Nathan.
“Nothing in particular,” he replied indifferently.
What?
Every single individual, including the reporters and Leigh himself, was stunned beyond words.
How could he have nothing in particular to say about Leigh's confrontational statement?
Was that a sign of weakness?
“It's up to you lot if you want to retaliate against the words of an already-defeated opponent,” Nathan explained in his usual calm demeanor. “Whatever it is you may think, I don't have any thoughts about that statement in particular.”
Everyone stood dumbfounded and gawked at him.
