"Is it a ship?"
Arthur asked in a hushed voice.
Malz immediately nodded.
To this, Arthur was not surprised.
Although the new Sheriff of Shire District had the courage to fight, it did not mean that he wouldn't leave himself a way out.
Similarly, Arthur did the same.
No one could guarantee what the final struggle between the Earl of South Los and the Duke of the Inner Bay would turn into.
And unlike others who still had choices, Malz's appointment as sheriff was signed by the Earl of South Los himself, and Arthur had openly stood by Marinda's side.
It could be said, both were already marked by the Earl.
In such a situation, if the Earl won, as early 'investors,' they naturally expected to enjoy immense benefits.
But if the Duke of the Inner Bay won, they had no other option but to take to the sea.
The Earl, with his noble status, might be stripped of many things, but would certainly spare his life—that was the rule among nobles.
But they were not nobles!
