Bab 107: Weaving A Trap

Lucius's eyes gazed at all the heirs, like a viper staring at its helpless prey.

Upon hearing the name of the Inanis family, the noble heirs knew they would have to fully assist Lucius here. If they did not, their families would likely to be implicated and they would be in even greater trouble.

'Damn this brat… too clever for his own good!' Baron thought to himself.

By invoking the name of the Inanis family, Lucius was pretty much bending the odds in his favor. While the baron could verify more information later on, it would not spell good for him or his daughter in the current negotiation.

The nobles would err on the side of Lucius and would not want to offend the family due to this. They may even change their perspective subconsciously to suit Lucius's side. Such was the pressure exuded by mere words.

"Honored guests, please go ahead and speak truthfully of all the events that transpired here." The Baron spoke as well.
