Hidden Help

"Is there a way to release them? I can vouch for their innocence. As long as they stay in the city and don't come into the Sect, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"

The guard shook his head.

"As descendants of the main bloodline, we can use them as leverage. As for your other employees, we should have released them already. However, we knew that you were a Sky Shifting Sect member, so we preferred to wait for you to come out so that we could explain."

Krune felt that something was weird.

"I can't understand. There is nothing that proves that I'm not involved with Nina and Lino; how come I'm getting this special treatment? You speak as if I'm absolutely innocent, while my employees had to be investigated first. Something is wrong here."

The guard shrugged his shoulder after hearing that.
