Starting Day Two with Shocked and Furious Expressions

Hotel staff and security were paid off to let the killer access the suite Kent, and his ladies were supposed to be in that night after the auction. 

It was an easy move on their part, considering Kent's team was the weakest in this regard. 

However, when the day broke and none of their teams returned to report, questions started popping up. 

The Millers, the Faywoods, the Fyad, and everyone who tried to take advantage of the situation to steal ore from Kent were now asking their spies and informants questions. 

Of course, they couldn't make these questions public, considering they shouldn't have been asking them in the first place. 

They tried to steal from someone who won the bid fair and square, so why resort to underhanded means to take from him? 

But as the minutes passed and their Root Great Sages and Root Transcendents didn't return, their frustration started to mount.
