章 562: Meeting Ellis' Father

"What? Why are you all staring at me like that?" Ellis asked after being stared at for almost a minute. 

It was an uncomfortable feeling. 

"You're the one who brought the bandit leader back, since the ring isn't on him, where is it?" Claude questioned. 

"I don't know. I barely managed to survive fighting against so many people, do you think I would be worried about a damn ring?" Ellis asked, raising his voice slightly towards the end of his question. 

"It did take you a single day to deal with the bandits, I presume you must've gone through a lot," Claude said. 

"Oh, how did you defeat the bandits anyway?" The old man with dark hair asked. 

"I fought," Ellis' reply was simple, but everyone knew it had a lot in it. 

"I must commend your effort, but you see what we're searching for, we'll obtain it no matter what. If the storage ring is with you, I'd advise you to give it back now," The old man with dark hair said.
