Baal's Faction (9)

Over the next few days, Baal noticed a shortage of magic stone supplies in the market. Belles and Begonia received significantly lesser payments in the form of stones and the customer base declined rapidly after the acute scarcity. The only bright side to everything was Wiser's report about Schaf's activities.

"Will the sheep get punished?" Zero asked. Soon after Zero and Baal made up after their argument, the Demon Lord filled the brunet in on the current circumstances. Zero agreed that the mastermind must be punished but nobody brought up the manager's involvement.

"It's difficult to say if he would be punished. For all we know, Schaf might be a victim too. If so, we wouldn't punish him. However, if he was found participating in this scheme willingly... it really depends on his level of involvement for this scheme. Many of my people have died after all. I cannot overlook this easily."
