"Carlos, what were you thinking? Weren't we supposed to operate quietly and avoid trouble?
Now all the nobles of Qiaomu County are on alert, and it may not be long before this happens throughout the Southeastern Province."
The masked man angrily questioned.
Killing a minor knight is nothing. Dozens of soldiers can be ignored. But what you absolutely must not do, under any circumstance, was to expose yourself.
Carlos's identity was not revealed, but his boss has unfairly shouldered the blame. The Skeleton Holy Master can't even show his face now, fearing he would be spotted by the noble guards everywhere.
"Holy Master, I didn't want to expose myself! But that guy had seen me before and started interrogating me right away.
My temporary identity couldn't withstand scrutiny. He saw through my lie within a few sentences. He ordered to arrest me, I had to fight back!"
Carlos said, clearly frustrated.
Nothing went his way in times of adversity.
