"Where are you going? The meeting isn't over yet."
While Lucien was busy distributing one weapon after another with gusto, Balthor suddenly asked Kurma, who was slowly walking back.
Now that he got what he wanted, Kurma felt no need to stay in this place.
From the beginning, Lucien's behaviour was quite odd, and even when he showed such incredible wealth, nobody stopped him.
It was as if he got permission from his family to squander as much wealth as he wanted.
As much as Kurma wanted to say Lucien was just young and stupid, believing them with just a promise, he had to agree there was something wrong here.
With his acute senses, he already noticed a few odd figures in the crowd not taking part in this fiasco but watching as if waiting for something to happen.
So, rather than waiting and getting involved in an unknown plot, he felt it was better to leave this place sneakily.
Only, the tall figure of Balthor didn't let him do that.
