The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 2519

Hansel, unable to formulate a response to Fane's question, stiffened as his gaze flitted around everywhere. He mulled over the situation for a good while before he finally said, "I'm sorry, but I've been sworn to secrecy on this matter, and I've even signed a soul contract. If I talked about it, my soul would be punished."

Fane raised an eyebrow, not saying anything.

Rudy anxiously said, "You just said you'd tell us everything, and now you're saying you've signed a soul contract? How could we know what kind of soul contract it is? Don't try to deter us like this!"

Hansel hurriedly shook his head. "I'm not lying! I did sign a soul contract, I promise. It's the kind that ties itself to heaven and earth. If I say anything, I probably won't be able to survive for a minute before my soul explodes!"

Hansel's words made it incredibly difficult for them to persist, but at the same time, Rudy and Grayson did not think Hansel was speaking the truth.

They just felt like Hansel made up a random reason to shut them up because he did not want to reveal the truth. Hansel saying he had sworn into secrecy would, of course, prevent them from interrogating him further.

Fane sighed as he said calmly, "Since you're not willing to answer, I won't force you. However, you have to answer this question.

"Has the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance encountered many problems lately? Are these problems so severe that they'd threaten the existence of the alliance?"

Hansel looked at Fane with a surprised expression. After thinking about it, he nodded. "I don't know if this matter would actually endanger the alliance.

After all, the alliance has been in Middle Province for who knows how many years. They have very deep roots.
