The soldiers behind Zack gasped simultaneously when they heard the head of the griffin house being associated with the cult of the dark lord.
If Zack and Emma had been normal soldiers serving under the duke, they would have been beheaded for such a false claim.
But since they were from the royal capital, it meant that their words were more significant than all the guards combined together.
"You think anyone would believe in such a claim without any proof?" The head of the griffin family asked with a cold look as Zack smiled.
"We have enough proof for now. If any of us had stepped near that barrier, we would have been hit by lightning and killed. And since you are obstructing an official investigation, you are truly suspicious."
"A guard should know his place." The man, Alek, replied with a dangerous expression as Zack smiled.
"And a noble should act his status." He then jumped forward with the sword pointed forward and the head of the griffin house smiled.
