Yang Yi followed Jethro to meet with Corkdor.
Among the people Yang Yi had met before, those sent by Deyo were either arrogant or egotistic, each looking as if their eyes wished to perch high in the heavens, but this Corkdor seemed uncharacteristically humble.
Yang Yi and Anton stood behind Jethro while two men similarly flanked Ferdinand. Having greeted Jethro and Ferdinand, Corkdor, accompanied by two bodyguards, faced his men with a tranquil expression and said, "This place is safe, you two wait outside for me."
Corkdor's bodyguards left, but Jethro merely gestured, indicating Yang Yi and the other to step back slightly, yet he did not ask them to leave the room.
Ferdinand made the same choice.
Without understanding Corkdor's intention, they certainly did not dare to let their bodyguards be too far away.
