Atlant's gaze subtly shifted, immediately grasping Colin's meaning—
He didn't want to get involved in this matter!
The reason wasn't hard to guess.
The eighty thousand lives were merely the result of inflated numbers, meant to draw attention from the rear. The battle report likely included numerous goblins and lesser demons, perhaps even incomplete souls of undead cannon fodder.
As the Military Minister, Colin naturally couldn't claim the eighty thousand soldiers weren't important. But to demons who truly understand the frontline, it's merely a fraction on a larger war report, not worth highlighting.
