Another death

The crowd was silent and didn't dare to speak any words. Ulysses patiently stood there to wait for any of them to voice out their concern but none were willing to speak. He scanned them faintly, not enough to let them notice, to see if any of them were like the other man that spoke.

 

Since no one spoke after five minutes, Ulysses gestured for the sentinels to escort all of them home but before that he left them with last words. "If you don't have the courage now, we will entertain your concerns if you undergo the process of making an appointment with the duke."

 

The man who spoke first was walking straight ahead while looking from side to side. He was berating himself for doing that just for money. He couldn't even fulfill the mission to the end so he was sure that he would be scolded and he won't receive the pay he should get.
