After some contemplation, James turned towards the Taylor family’s servant who was standing beside him. "We're kind of lost here because we arrived a little late.
Did the Goddess of War mention Fane holding a certain position?" he asked, tone quiet. “Like a God of War?”
“Oh, she didn't say anything like that, but Fane did say that he received a token but h e lost it. He also said that the money he used to bid for that villa was all his.
"He's probably a head commander. It's a big accomplishment if he managed to hold that title within five years!" the servant replied.
"Why didn't he say anything if he was a head commander?” Specter Face, who stood at the back, asked out of curiosity.
“Oh, Master Fane explained that he was afraid nobody would believe him because his token was lost on the road. So, he simply did not tell anyone.
"But I really admire him. The Goddess of War might not even be standing before us today if it weren't for him, and there wouldn't have been so many prominent figures coming to our master's birthday party!"
The servant continued as he walked forward, "Actually, Miss Selena is a fine young woman and her husband is not too shabby either. They've finally earned the approval of the Taylor family. Let’s hope they'll live the rest of their lives together in bliss." "Don’t worry. That'll definitely happen!' A small smile lit up James's face. He did not believe what Fane said. His token got lost? It was too much of a coincidence. He sensed Fane's identity was not that simple.
He wondered how Fane managed to convince Lana, a Goddess of War, to help conceal his identity.
He thought about it. Perhaps it was because the Goddess of War got injured not long after she had enlisted into the army before she was strong. Fane used his medical skills to save her, so she agreed to help him.
"Master Drake, Miss Tanya, Mr. Timothy. You’re here!" Fane smiled and greeted them when he noticed James and the others.
"Mmhmm. We probably would've arrived earlier if Tanya and Yvonne had not taken half the day just to pick their clothes and d o their makeup."
