"Emerald Legion, riot control mission, spare no expense, be prepared to shed blood!"
Upon receiving the Duke's order, the Seychelles Knight shouted loudly.
The Emerald Army Soldiers in the stands responded in unison, uniformly and neatly, which made the guards protecting Thales extremely nervous. Wyatt anxiously surveyed the surroundings, looking for an exit.
"No, Jann, wait!"
In her urgency, Sherryl spoke out to stop him, "Suppressing violence with force won't solve the problem, but rather confirm the accusations made by Federick—"
But Jann paid her no heed, his gaze fixed on the distant Federick as he coldly huffed out an order:
"Remember, Seychelles, if the offender resists…"
"Yes, no mercy will be shown, my lord." Seychelles solemnly repeated the Duke's order and strode toward his troop.
However, a hand suddenly rested on Seychelles's shoulder, halting his momentum.
