Chapter 414: Swearing
“There’s no need to explain. They don’t want to hear your explanation—they just want you dead.
“No matter how you explain, they’ll only keep questioning until they force you to death.”
Loren turned and said to Laila, and the others heard his words too.
Yvonne began to ponder. Anna was practically itching for action; with a single command from Loren, she could ensure not a single person walked out alive.
Sure enough, Loren’s guess was spot on. Even after Laila had spoken like that, the questioning voices rose and fell without end. The woman claiming to be the victim was the most frantic, hastily retracting everything she had said and spinning a new story, even claiming that Laila was infected by the Rainbow Plague.
Loren let out a bitter laugh. The very accusation he often pinned on others had now been pinned on him.
At a time like this, any explanation was useless. He had to strike from another angle.
Loren didn’t say another word. He used Requiem to carve runes into the ground, eventually shaping an altar.
“This is an altar dedicated to the God of Bountiful Harvest, used for making vows.”
