I Shall Bear The Burden

-----

The people inside the tower of the Great Ancestor within the Monk Clan discussed many things now. They were getting ready for Frank to come at any moment, but they were still discussing it even now that he had just arrived…

"We owe him a big apology… So all of you must remain polite and gentle if possible, don't dare raise your voice against him!" said the Great Ancestor.

All the Elders nodded, even as old as they were, they recognized when they committed a bit mistake…

"No… Great Ancestor, let me take the burden. It was all, after all, my fault. I was the one that left the report that Frank's house was now secured with my seals… I was naïve. I didn't think it enough nor I was considered enough… I should had used better seals and reinforce the security way better… It is all my fault… I will take the responsibility, and any punishment!" said Matsuo's father, as he kneeled before everyone.
