Suddenly, one of the disciples stepped forward and asked in disbelief, "Mr. Hackett, did you kill our previous lord?"
"I did. He was weak and useless. That was why Mystic Vessel Sect was struggling all those years. Don't you see how mighty Mystic Vessel Sect has become after I took reign?" Hill admitted to the allegation rather casually.
Many of the disciples were stunned by those words, but they kept silent.
Hill's quick admission of guilt caught Valeria by surprise.
There and then, Gustav raised his sword and yelled, "Fellow disciples, since Hill has already admitted his crime, let's unite and kill this betrayer! We must avenge our previous lord!"
"Kill the betrayer! Avenge our previous lord!" Gustav's disciples shouted.
However, the rest of the disciples kept mum.
