"S-Senior, I didn't do that. I don't even know who this Hannah lady was." The masked man hurriedly spoke up in his defense.
"Yes, senior. Even though I knew who lady Hannah was, I never acted against her. It was all done by Wiley." Dean chimed in, shifting all the blame onto Count Wiley.
Count Wiley didn't try to give any explanation because he knew he was the main culprit of the Garfield's family's tragedies. He just stared at the old lady, and stealthily took out his [Witch's destruction talisman], gripping it tightly in his hand.
He knew even though the talisman was very strong, its effects were limited to five-star and maximum to king ranked mages. It couldn't harm an emperor ranked mage at all.
However, he felt a little safer with in his hand and he planned to launch it at Dean and the masked man when the old lady attacked him. Since he couldn't do anything to her, he would at least kill or severely injure these traitorous companions of his.
