But Elijah still stood there as he contemplated the guard's words.
He had met Cynthia before, so he can boldly say that they weren't on good terms.
Although he had decided to help the blacksmith just so that he could get back his refund, he couldn't just go directly to the mines and release the boy that is being held in captivity.
As Elijah prepared to turn back and depart as he saw no chances of him and Cynthia coming to such an agreement, a sudden voice attracted his attention.
"What is going on here?" An elderly man dressed in an orange silk shirt with black pants asked.
"Nothing Elder, these people were just leaving" The guards replied immediately.
'An Elder' Elijah thought as this was the first time he had seen an elder of the Golden steel clan, so he was a little curious about the kind of power and authority they wielded.
Meanwhile, Allen didn't share the same curiosity as he immediately knelt in front of the elder.
