Part 1: Rupert's dead end

Meeting Hall:

"So, what do you guys think?"

"I suppose this guy has already left Star City. He must be looking to leave our territory," Old Man Clifford said.

"I have ordered people at the border to screen every Gold Mark Warrior strictly. Unless the Gold Mark Warriors provide concrete proof, it's impossible to leave our territory," Main Elder Leola said.

"I have contacted some of my friends as well. They are going to tighten the border on their side. The only problem is our border with the Dark Shadow University," Main Elder Cathy added this time.

Hearing that, no one was surprised. The Main Elders are all Purple Mark Warriors. They have their own connections and resources.

"What if this guy escapes back to the Inner Post Region?"

"I hope he won't target Zack Lockwood's people," Main Elder voiced her concern.

"Don't worry about this matter. Dena Jerome has spoken. That person can't slip away from us," Old Man Clifford reassured.
