"Answer me this instant!" Ryder roared, showing his angry side, which he rarely showed in front of his loved ones.
"W-we did it on the orders of Master Bastion and Madam Esmi. They told us to do it! I don't know why! That's all I know! I promise!" the man explained as his face was covered in sweat.
"What the hell are you talking about! I don't even know you!" Esmi caller out in protest. "And Bastion will never do something like this!"
"Why are you lying, madam! He will kill me if I don't tell the truth! Confess to him and ask for forgiveness. Don't let me die! I did so many things for you! You can't let me die like that!" the man called out.
"You Bastard! You dare to slander me! Ryder, I promise I don't know who he is!" Esmi said as she walked to Ryder and held his hand.
Ryder looked at her before he looked at the man, crying on the ground.
He shook his hand, freeing his hand from Esmi, who looked blankly at him.
