"Spitting..." Stephen laughed heartily and said, "What a clown, indeed. So fat, drunk, a clear sign of lack of self-control. As a student of Russell and an Army Lieutenant, he has the audacity to spit on an Admiral. Such a person can only be described as foolish." He relaxed, finding the fact that he had gotten angry at such a person amusing now.
However, thinking about the rebuke he received from his father, James, this morning, wiped the smile off Stephen's face again. Russell and the clown he controlled made a mockery of him in the lecture recording. They harped on the landing campaign, putting all the blame on him, while not mentioning a word about Liebgoet, who was truly responsible for the entire strategic deployment. It was as if the Gazalin military losing the Lucerne defense battle was entirely due to his own mistakes.
