Chapter 3294 Please Give Us A Break
Sonja and the others froze upon hearing that question.
Magnus and the other two men, too, struggled to come up with an answer.
They knew the answer. In fact, they knew it quite some time ago.
Magnus and the other two men were at a loss for words.
Since Levi had kept his eyes on them, they had made quite a number of mistakes that had aroused Levi’s suspicion.
They knew they could not fool Levi anymore as he had lost faith in them.
The only way out was for them to tell the truth.
Suddenly, Sonja stood up and said, “Yes! We know who they are!”
Magnus and the others looked at her in disbelief.
What? Is she going come clean? How dare she?
“But we can’t tell you who they are. If we did, we’d die! Our family will die too! They’ll also destroy our lands! Please understand we’re in a difficult situation, Crown King! So please show us mercy, and don’t force us to give you the answer!” Sonja pleaded.
Upon hearing that, Magnus and the others started pleading with Levi, “Please do not force us to give you the answer.”
After dropping their knees, they continued begging, “Please don’t force us to answer that question!”
Everyone was stunned.
They looked at Sonja and the rest in disbelief as they could not believe their ears.
What’s going on?
Why are they so terrified of those men in black robes?
They know who those men in black robes are, yet they’re afraid to reveal their identity? Why?
They were shocked because they had no clue how powerful the men in black robes were.
Why are Sonja, Magnus, and the others so afraid of them?
They even kneeled before Levi, hoping that he could show them mercy.
Unbelievable!
But there’s something amiss about their reaction.
Floyd noticed something was off with the way they reacted to Levi’s question.
Before this, he had shown signs of hostility toward Sonja and the others because Gloria had brainwashed him to believe they were the enemy.
He believed Sonja and her people must have an ulterior motive for helping them.
To confirm his suspicion, Floyd had even investigated that group of people.
At this point, the turn of events had caused him to be warier of them.
Obviously, they know who the men in black robes are, but they’re still trying to keep it from us.
They even played the sympathy card and expect the mentor to let them off.
Something’s fishy.
Floyd became even more suspicious of them. Likewise, he started believing everything Gloria said.
These people are trying to sow discord among us. They must have a hidden agenda.
“Master, I’m worried these people have an ulterior motive!” Floyd warned.
“It’s okay.” Levi’s lips curled into a smile.
It looks like I’ve found my match.
These men in black robes must be extremely powerful as they could easily intimidate Sonja, Magnus, and the rest.
They all seemed to be terrified of the men in black robes.
I bet they could feel the fear in their bones.
But I believe the man who carried out the transplantation of the spiritual bone is much more powerful, as he was the one who gave orders to the men in black robes.
Interesting.
Give me some time, and I’ll find out who these people are!
“All right. Fine. You don’t have to answer my question.” Levi looked at them and grinned.
Sonja heaved a sigh of relief and said, “We might not have given the information, but I believe you’ll be able to find out who they are! Many people in the Ecclesiastic Order know who those men in black robes are. They might not know those mysterious men’s appearance, but they should recognize those people based on their costumes!”
“I’m sorry, we cannot tell you who they are. We’ll be in deep trouble if they find out we are the ones who leaked this piece of information to you! But that said, we really have no idea what the totem is. I bet no one from the Ecclesiastic Order knows about it either!” she reiterated.
Levi nodded upon hearing that. So she knows what I’m capable of. What a smart woman!
She’s right. It’s okay if she doesn’t give me the details. I’ll be able to find out who the men in black robes are eventually.
Well, at least they had prevented a massacre by not revealing anything to me.
“All right. I’ll spare you. You may leave now since you have nothing to do with it!”
Levi decided to let them off.
