Is that so?
Clemento was filled with shame and indignation at Wilson's obsequious words, and he was also ashamed of what he had just said. As the Minister of Naval Affairs of the Kingdom of Saar, he had never been so servile.
In the past, he always spoke with the air of a superior when dealing with any country, but now he was forced to kneel before the enemy and say things he didn't mean in order to survive.
His pride was shattered, and he even had the thought that it would have been better to die in the shelling.
But now, faced with Qin Ze's question, for some reason, the word that came out of his mouth was "yes".

Upon hearing Clemento's explanation, Qin Ze nodded and smiled, "I see."
"Your Queen Isabella seems to have great ambitions. Our two countries are so far apart, yet she still sends a huge fleet on an expedition. This shows her amazing spirit. She must be no ordinary woman."
Faced with Qin Ze's praise, which he could not discern as genuine, Clemento, even though he was currently a captive, still felt a surge of pride.
