Chapter 78: Author's Return

"I have a feeling that we might be in trouble."

The illusory thread was connected between him and the woman. It made him feel like he was being made a suspect.

He could try to explain his innocence, but it was useless. Once his identity was exposed, no matter what he said, it was going to be useless.

For them, he was someone from the Eastern Continent who had killed a Hero Academy member. It did not help that Xiu Ying was with him who had already killed a Hero Academy professor in the past.

"Can you use a charm on him?" he asked Xiu Ying.

The silence that came in response was enough of an answer for him. Even the Charm Skill had its limitations. It could not work on someone like Mist or Astral, who had a strong mentality.
