"An outworlder?" Jack was startled by the revelation.
"I cannot identify the ambusher because he or she was wearing a face mask, but my Inspect showed for certain that the ambusher was an outworlder. A level 32 Assassin," Alonzo said.
Jack thought back to Claudius' comments when they met outside. He felt weird at the time, but now he understood.
"At this time, you are the only outworlder with the sufficient rank to access the training cave," Mason said to Jack. "But the nobility faction didn't register you using your points to access those caves. Additionally, we have checked, you are not in Thereath at the time when the ambush took place."
"So, I was a suspect?"
"Don't be offended, Mister Storm Wind. A royal prince had been attacked, every action needs to be taken. Otherwise, some other parties will start asking questions. It is better if we collect all the facts first before those unwanted parties used the information for their own purposes."
