Chapter 92: Private Conversation with the King

The room was quiet. Each adventurer took turns reading each other's reactions and figuring out the consensus of the room. Rydel sat down, not having anything else to say. Jack and Maynard keep their eyes focused on the king, trying to look past his trained body language.

After a couple of minutes passed, Zariff glanced at everyone and stopped on Rydel, who in turn looked to Jack. When Jack shook his head, Rydel did the same.

Zariff understood their stance and spoke up, "If you can't produce some kind of evidence, then we can't plan to act with you. I want the best for the kingdom and would love to stick it to that pompous mage more than you know, but I can't do that without one hundred percent confidence that what you're saying is the truth. I'm sure you understand that, Leo."
