Owen Bertram sustained serious injuries, but he took some Pills that kept him clinging to life, preventing his soul from leaving his body.
In just a cup of tea's time, he withdrew the spiritual light tendrils between his fingers, his expression growing angrier: "There is indeed a strict soul prohibition."
"And it's our Horizon Bureau's prohibition method!"
The latter was the source of his anger.
Owen Bertram sighed, "As I thought? Someone in the upper echelons of the Horizon Bureau is involved in the affairs of Casterly County."
David looked at him with doubt, "You already suspected this?"
Owen Bertram nodded, and after some contemplation, he shared the majority of the information he had with David and analyzed it: "The person behind Owen Bertram is someone who can command top Sixth Great Realm experts, undoubtedly an important figure in the Imperial Court, at least on the same level as Master Lane."
