507 Banquet for nobles (7)
I didn't bother answering this as I turned to look at Viscount Teomold's followers.
At first, they had been moving over as if they wanted to help him if anything went wrong.
However, once they heard that it was the king's caravan that he had attacked, they immediately blended back into the crowd. They tried their best to hide in the crowd so that they didn't attract any attention at all.
But what they didn't notice was that there were guards that had blended into the crowd.
They were ready to capture these nobles at any moment.
It was time to take care of them as well so we didn't leave any unsolved problems for the future.
With a cough, I said, "There were others who had been discovered to have colluded with Viscount Teomold on this matter."
Everyone immediately took a cold breath when they heard this and they started looking at each other.
In no time at all, everyone started moving away from each other as if they didn't trust each other.
The expressions of Viscount Teomold's followers turned ugly when they heard this.
They wanted to move towards the door, but it was too conspicuous with everyone spreading out like this. So the only thing that they could do was hope that they hadn't been discovered.
But with everyone spread out like this, it was very easy to see the guards that were placed there.
So it didn't take long for them to realize what was happening.
I just calmly looked at Viscount Teomold's followers and said, "Is there anything that you want to say?"
All of them looked at each other with uncertain looks as if they didn't know what to do.
But the expressions on their faces became more and more unstable as if they were already considering something.
Finally, one of them spoke.
Some of these nobles were ones that had fought as knights on the frontline before receiving their titles for their achievements, so they couldn't believe that they were being overpowered by guards like this.
But they found that they weren't able to do a single thing against these guards.
They were completely outclassed.
How could guards for a countryside noble be this strong?
It would make sense if he was some kind of hidden royal, but he was nothing more than a noble that had been lucky enough to earn a title.
This just didn't make any sense at all.
While the nobles had been restrained, Viscount Henry had been walking forward with a few of his followers as if they were prepared to help if anything happened.
When they saw how easily Viscount Teomold's followers were caught, they couldn't help being surprised.
After all, Viscount Henry was someone who had served as a knight as well, so he was someone with some military prowess.
At the same time, the nobles that chose to follow him were also those that had served on the frontline, which was why they chose to follow him in the first place.
All of them had skills that allowed them to see how powerful these guards were.
It was clear that they might not even be able to do anything to these guards if they were the ones being restrained.
Viscount Henry couldn't help looking at Count Zwein with a strange look, but he saw that he was also looking at him which caught him off guard.
Seeing Viscount Henry look at me like this, I gave a secret bitter laugh before waving my hand at him to come over.
Viscount Henry hesitated for a second as he revealed a confused look, but he still came over in the end.
After he came over, I looked at everyone and said, "The actions of these wicked nobles have harmed others, so now they will be given compensation for this matter."
Just one more day of AGDQ left.
