บท 581: Proof

Tomas smiled hearing Hao Xuan's warning, "How can I help you, stranger?"

Hearing the calmness in his voice, Hao Xuan couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He tightened the grip around the sword in his right hand, ready to lash out at a moment's notice.

Hao Xuan gathered his thoughts for a second before asking the first question.

"What is this place?"

Tomas chuckled, "It is a way for sinners to redeem themselves. And for the weak to survive."

His cryptic answer only confused and angered Hao Xuan more.

"Don't speak in riddles, I don't have time to play with you. One more answer like this and you will lose your head. Now, last chance, answer the question."

Tomas gently shook his head.

"Youngsters are always in a hurry," he mumbled before continuing, "As I said before, all the people here are either criminals atoning for their sins or those too weak to survive on their own. They are just being put to use."
