Chapter 155: Mad Duke...
The next morning they went early to the market to see if someone was selling it.
The first shop they went to is where they sell some old things, but the dagger wasn’t there.
"The dagger seems not to be here too," Acantha said as she looked at Helion who were now checking some weapons that was being sold in the shop that they just got in.
"Let’s meet Jarnus and Ernie outside," She said and Helion followed her.
When they went outside, they saw some people who were camping in one place; it seemed like they were watching something.
Acantha with Helion went to see what was happening and there she saw heard people gasp as the sound of whipping could be heard in the center.
"I told them last night that they should be wary, as the duke has ears everywhere." Acantha recognized that voice as it was the middle-aged lady at the restaurant last night.
And when she and Helion finally went to the crowd of people, they saw the four men who were being whipped by some knights.
She looked at them and the blood gushed down to their bodies as they were being whipped and tortured.
The men grunt in pain as they plead with the knights who are punishing them.
"This is what you get for your blasphemy against the duke!" one of the knights who was whipping the men yelled as he whipped one of the men who was kneeling in front of them.
