Hearing the merchant group leader call out, the young knight was taken aback, quickly raising his head. After recognizing the person standing before him, his face turned pale and he swung his head away, pretending not to know him.
"Do you know each other?"
Seeing this, Duanmu Huai asked with interest, to which the merchant leader hesitated and nodded after a moment.
"Yes, Sir Knight, could you explain …"
"Ah, it's nothing serious. This lad accused me of being a despicable demon yesterday and wanted to duel me several times. In the end, I knocked him out and took him as a captive."
"I see …"
The merchant team leader relaxed a bit upon hearing this.
"Well, to be honest, he is the son of our guild's chairman …"
"Oh, so you want him back?"
"If possible …"
"He's all yours. This kind of dead weight just wastes food."
