Caiden, the leader of the group, was unable to speak as he clenched his teeth in anger… He already had a bad feeling inside the interrogation room… He was even planning to leave the city as he didn't feel right about this mission.
However, after they were treated with meals and decent accommodation while they wait for Faviona, he thought that he was just overthinking.
After all, even the Union Head and other Tower Masters weren't able to tell that they have already pledged allegiance to the Black Magic Organization.
As long as they deny their involvement with the Organization, there shouldn't be anyone capable of telling otherwise considering their status as an Alchemist as well.
They also met with a few knights and staff inside the Tower and they didn't feel any form of hostility at all.
They were truly caught off-guard by the sudden activation of the Formation Art.
Caiden carefully observed the Reception Hall and confirmed that there were only 15 of them inside.
